SOUTHFIELD, Mich. — Federal-Mogul’s Wagner brand has announced that it is the first aftermarket brand to offer replacement brake pads for 2010 Toyota Prius models. The new Wagner ThermoQuiet ceramic pads (Wagner p/n QC1184A, front; QC1423, rear) are now available through leading distributors across North America.
As a leading global manufacturer of original equipment friction components, Federal-Mogul is consistently among the first aftermarket manufacturers to introduce replacement brake pads and shoes for late-model foreign-nameplate and domestic applications, according to the company.
“Wagner ThermoQuiet ceramic pads offer the quieter performance, superior stopping power and longer pad life that are important to the owners of today’s vehicles,” said Ken Selinger, director of friction products, North America, Federal-Mogul. “We are pleased that auto parts stores and automotive service providers can be the first in their markets to offer Wagner ThermoQuiet replacement brake pads for the 2010 Toyota Prius.”
Available for a comprehensive range of vehicles that were factory-equipped with ceramic pads, as well as many popular models originally using semi-metallic formulations, Wagner ThermoQuiet disc brake pads combine the exclusive benefits of two patented technologies: Federal-Mogul’s Integrally Molded Insulator (IMI) one-piece brake pad and Wagner EDGE Laser-Shaped Friction designs. Combined with the company’s extensive portfolio of proprietary, application-specific formulations, these technologies deliver quieter performance, superior stopping power, enhanced durability, and less brake dust, the company said.
