Federal-Mogul Expands Wagner ThermoQuiet Product Line; New Coverage Includes First-to-Market Front Pads for 2011 Hyundai Sonata

Federal-Mogul Corporation has added coverage for several late-model foreign-nameplate and domestic passenger vehicles to the industry-leading line of Wagner ThermoQuiet brakes. Among the new products are the aftermarket’s first replacement front brake pads for 2011 Hyundai Sonata models.

Wagner ThermoQuiet brake pads combine the exclusive benefits of two proprietary technologies for most applications: Federal-Mogul’s award-winning 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 and longer pad life. Many ThermoQuiet brake pad sets now also include complete installation hardware kits for fast, complete repairs.
