Wagner ThermoQuiet one-piece brake pads from Federal-Mogul Corp. now incorporate two patented technologies: Federal-Mogul’s Integrally Molded Insulator (IMI) and, most recently, the new Wagner Edge Laser-Shaped Friction design.
The Edge technology, which custom shapes friction material on select applications, involves laser-scan analysis of the caliper-pad-rotor interface, resulting in more focused and efficient caliper force. By integrating both Edge and IMI one-piece designs into a single brake pad, engineers have virtually eliminated braking vibration and noise while providing superior stopping power and longer pad life, according to Federal-Mogul.
The pads are available in application-specific semi-metallic, non-asbestos organic and ceramic designs. To look up a ThermoQuiet pad, visit tqbrakepads.com or FMe-cat.com.
“The IMI design revolutionized the brake repair category and helped make ThermoQuiet pads the number one choice of repair professionals. Now, with the integration of Wagner EDGE technology, ThermoQuiet pads are the most sophisticated replacement pads in the aftermarket, providing superior braking performance and increased customer satisfaction,” said Ken Selinger, director of friction products, North America, Federal-Mogul.
