Silence everyday braking noise with the quiet, low-dust ceramic friction of the Wagner ThermoQuiet QC1521 Front Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Set. It drops in as a direct-fit front-axle replacement for the listed applications, including the 2019-2023 Acura RDX, 2011-2017 Honda Odyssey, 2019-2025 Honda Passport, and 2016-2019 Subaru Legacy.
- Zero-copper ceramic friction: built on Wagner's OE25 copper-free ceramic formulation.
- IMI one-piece design: on select applications, IMI technology molds the friction material, backing plate, and insulator together for quieter operation.
- Noise control: an application-specific, laser-shaped friction surface disperses heat, sound, and vibration to reduce noise opportunities.
- Cleaner wheels: delivers whisper-quiet stops and ultra-low dust compared to conventional semi-metallic pads during everyday street driving, and helps reduce rotor wear.
The set includes a mechanical pad wear sensor and abutment clips; pad shims are not included. Pads feature chamfered edges and a slotted friction surface, and each set services the front axle (one set per application). Signs the front pads may need replacing include squealing, grinding, longer stopping distances, or a lit brake wear indicator—have the brakes inspected to confirm the cause. Country of origin: United States.
