Silence rear brake squeal and keep your wheels cleaner with the Wagner ThermoQuiet QC1109 Rear Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Set. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2007 Ford Explorer [All], 2005-2007 Mercury Mountaineer [All], and 2007-2008 Ford Explorer Sport Trac [All], servicing the rear axle.
Wagner's TQ ceramic pads pair the OE25 zero-copper friction formulation with the Integrally Molded Insulator (IMI) one-piece design, which builds the friction material, backing plate, and insulator into a single pad for quieter operation.
- Quieter operation: an application-specific, laser-shaped friction surface spreads out heat, sound, and vibration to reduce noise during everyday street driving.
- Long life: the formulation is designed to dissipate heat for long-lasting friction performance and reduced brake fade.
- Cleaner wheels: the proprietary ceramic formulation is designed to reduce rotor wear, and it produces lower, less-visible brake dust than conventional semi-metallic pads.
- Ready to install: includes pad shims and abutment clips with chamfered, slotted friction; a pad wear sensor is not included, and premium stainless-steel hardware is provided on select applications.
