Quiet your everyday stops and keep your wheels cleaner with the Wagner ThermoQuiet QC1848 Rear Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Set. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications — the 2016-2019 Hyundai Tucson (All) and 2017-2022 Kia Sportage (All) — fitted with Wagner's ceramic friction formulation for the rear disc brakes.
- Quieter operation: IMI™ Integrally Molded Insulator technology and a laser-shaped friction surface spread out heat, sound, and vibration to reduce noise during normal street driving.
- Cleaner wheels: The Wagner OE25™ zero-copper friction formulation helps reduce rotor wear and cut down on brake dust.
- Long life: The formulation is designed to dissipate heat for long-lasting friction performance and to help resist brake fade.
- One-piece design: IMI™ technology integrates the friction material, backing plate, and insulator into a single pad for select applications.
This rear set ships with mechanical pad wear sensors, pad shims, and abutment clips included, plus chamfered edges; premium stainless-steel hardware is included for select applications. Ceramic pads are engineered for a smooth, consistent pedal feel and low dust during everyday driving. For even, balanced braking, replace the pads on both sides of the axle together as a matched set, and inspect the rotors, resurfacing or replacing them as directed by the service procedure. If worn rear pads are the cause of squealing or reduced braking, this set replaces them. Made in the United States.
