Wagner Z785 Rear Drum Brake Shoe

The Wagner Z785 is a rear drum brake shoe built for precise contact with the brake drum and consistent stopping performance. It uses OE-matched friction material and precision-ground surfaces to help maintain even friction transfer in service.

Key Features

  • Organic friction material for controlled braking feel
  • Bonded friction attachment for stable lining retention
  • Precision-ground material surfaces to maximize friction-to-drum contact
  • Rear drum brake shoe application
  • Wagner brake line engineering for OE-style replacement fitment

Product Details

Wagner Brake Z785 is a drum brake shoe designed for rear brake service on select Toyota Matrix and Pontiac Vibe models with 9 in. x 1-51/64 in. rear brakes. The organic friction formulation supports predictable pedal response, while the precision-ground construction helps the shoe seat evenly against the drum. This part number, Z785, is also identified by FMSI 1529-S785 and is used in applications that call for FMSI lining 1529 and FMSI steel S785.

Wagner’s Wagner product line focuses on OE-style brake replacement parts, and this shoe follows that approach with friction materials matched to original equipment expectations. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
