- Ceramic, zero-copper friction: built with Wagner's OE25 zero-copper friction formulation for premium, whisper-quiet stops and ultra-low dust compared to conventional semi-metallic pads during everyday street driving.
- Even, consistent performance: a 100% post-cure process is designed to deliver even friction throughout the life of the pad, with an application-specific design intended to reduce noise-causing vibration.
- Noise-managing details: slotted friction and chamfered edges help control vibration, and pad shims plus abutment clips are included; a pad wear sensor is not included.
- Fit and reference: front-axle disc brake pad set, FMSI 8896-D1978. Country of origin: Mexico.
Designed to restore like-new braking feel, these OE fit-and-form pads are formulated for the specific application. Replace the front pads as a complete axle set for even, balanced braking, and inspect or replace the rotors and hardware as directed by the vehicle service procedure.
