These Wagner ThermoQuiet CeramicNXT low copper pads (No. QC1734) and three additional new pad sets for late-model applications are available immediately through leading automotive parts distributors, the company says.
Wagner ThermoQuiet CeramicNXT brake pads feature highly advanced Wagner OE21 low-copper friction formulations that are 35 percent quieter and offer 15 percent more stopping power and up to 40 percent greater fade resistance than previous Wagner ceramic formulations, according to the company.
