The Wagner Brake SX224 brake pad for the 2003-2008 Sterling Truck Acterra and other vehicles presses against the brake rotor to slow and stop the truck. This Wagner Brake disc brake pad set is made for trucks driven in demanding conditions, including gear hauling.
- Wagner SevereDuty (SD) line, designed and tested for fleets and police-pursuit vehicles
- Semi-metallic, carbon-based friction material engineered in-house for long-lasting braking performance in the toughest applications
- Rigorous OE-style on-vehicle testing for braking under extreme heat, frequent stopping and heavy loads
- OE-style shims and slots
- Wagner OE25™ zero-copper friction formulation
A squeal or grind when braking, a pull to one side or longer stopping distances can mean the brake pads are worn thin. A sticking caliper, a scored rotor or a collapsed brake hose can be behind the same noise or pull, so find the real cause before you order.
This SevereDuty set is a direct fit for the 2001-2007 Sterling Truck Acterra 5500 and the 2001-2007 Sterling Truck Acterra 6500, with one set needed per application. If your truck isn't named here, open the "Vehicles it fits" section and look up your exact model and engine.
