Federal-Mogul reports it has set a new
benchmark for ceramic friction technology with a broad new line of premium
ceramic brake pads engineered specifically for today’s foreign nameplate and
domestic passenger vehicles. New Wagner ThermoQuiet CeramicNXT brake pads were
designed within the company’s global network of advanced research and
development facilities serving the original equipment and replacement markets.
According to Federal-Mogul, Wagner
ThermoQuiet CeramicNXT brake pads feature highly advanced, proprietary
formulations that represent the next generation of premium ceramic technology.
At the core of these formulations is Dynamic Noise Absorption (DNA) technology
that is integrated into the pad to target and absorb vibration at the point of
contact for even quieter braking, the company says. Federal-Mogul adds that
these proprietary formulations also feature thermal-sensitive properties that
adapt to the wide range of temperatures encountered in everyday driving
conditions for consistent and superior stopping performance.
Wagner ThermoQuiet CeramicNXT
formulations are combined with the other exclusive features of ThermoQuiet
brake pads – including the Integrally Molded Insulator one-piece pad design and
Laser Shaped Friction technology – to deliver “the ultimate ceramic brake pad.”
“As the leader in global friction,
Federal-Mogul’s insight to the latest developments in OE braking systems
provides us a unique advantage in designing game-changing technologies that
meet the evolving needs of today’s drivers,” said Peter Murnen, global
marketing director, friction products, Federal-Mogul Global Aftermarket.
Federal-Mogul states that the new Wagner
ThermoQuiet CeramicNXT brake pads are available for millions of foreign
nameplate and domestic vehicles that were originally equipped with ceramic
technology and as ceramic alternatives for select vehicles equipped with
semi-metallic brake pads.
