Product Details

The QuickStop line is Wagner Brake’s OE-focused brake pad range for drivers who want predictable pedal response and stable stopping performance. ZX673 uses a semi-metallic formulation with chamfered edges, slots, and included shims to address common brake noise concerns while maintaining consistent contact on the rotor. The included mechanical wear sensor supports timely pad service on vehicles equipped for wear monitoring.

This part cross-references Wagner Brake MX673 for the same application. It also cross-references Raybestos Brakes SGD506C and SGD506M for select applications.

Common Issues This Part Can Help Address

• Squealing or vibration-related brake noise
• Reduced braking response from worn front pads
• Uneven friction performance as pads age
• Brake wear indicator service needs on equipped vehicles
• Front pad replacement on OE semi-metallic brake systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rotor condition, caliper operation, and pad hardware surfaces before installation. Clean the caliper bracket contact points, confirm the wear sensor routing, and follow the vehicle service procedure for pad bedding after installation. For listed applications, use the fitment notes carefully; several vehicles note OE semi-metallic pad material and pending obsolescence guidance.

Quality Assurance

Wagner Brake tests QuickStop pads to restore like-new braking performance and uses a post-cure process to help maintain consistent friction characteristics throughout pad life. The design also focuses on reducing noise-causing vibration for dependable front brake service.
