EBC Brakes

.

EBC Brakes have now launched the V7 issue of their famous Greenstuff compound designed for spirited street use with fully shimmed chamfered and slotted construction. Designed for fast street use on cars up to 200 BHP where reduced slightly lower dust and zero rotor damage is desired. Dust reduction is 20-30% better than OE. The new Green compound includes additives to prevent rotor vibration and feature the EBC Brake in coating for fast pad bed in. For higher HP cars and for any type of track use EBC strongly recommend considering their Redstuff Ceramic Superstreet grade or their new Yellowstuff R street and track combination formula.

If you are looking for a superb fast street brake compound look no further. EBC Brakes have rebuilt their earlier Redstuff compound with Ceramic particles and other special ingredients to deliver perfection in stopping power for even the fastest street use. These pads are ideal for High HP imports, muscle cars and especially suitable for European high end cars. EBC Redstuff Ceramic pads REDUCE DUST emitted by OEM pads in half, reduce rotor wear and last longer whilst delivering blistering brake performance. For optimum lifetime in track use EBC still recommend drivers to upgrade to their Yellowstuff range but if Fast street is what you need, EBC Redstuff Ceramic is the pad to choose.

The new EBC DM1846 compound is essentially a race pad but with a BIG difference in that it works from cold and can be safely used on the highway. If you want the Ultimate in High Friction Braking, this is the pad to choose, brakes come on like a train from first touch of the pedal and stay good right up to a blistering 1000 degrees of rotors temperature. EBC Yellowstuff DM 1846 Formula is designed for High Horsepower imports and Muscle cars where maximum stopping is prime requirement. Its dust rating is similar to OEM parts. All pads come with edge chamfers, center line slots, noise reduction shims and OEM hardware as needed. All EBC pads feature the EBC Brake in surface coating which helps pads seat quickly after install.

In a new super quiet slot design, the USR rotors are all black anodized and feature slots for cooler brakes and also offer the extra benefit of preventing the "record groove" scoring effect common with all plain rotors. The new quieter USR design is preferred by prestige car drivers where reduced air noise under braking is required. Slotted rotors can significantly improve brake performance and longevity when used with a matching high friction pad set . Having sold hundreds of thousands of brake kits, EBC Brakes feel confident their approach is as good as it gets.

The dimple drilled rotor was invented by EBC back in the 90's and has been imitated by many because of its ability to offer pad degassing without "Through Drilling" disc or rotor holes which has been shown to promote rotor cracks. The wide aperture slots on the EBC units actually draw cool air under the brake pad and rotor interface and help cool the temperatures of the pad contact which can shoot up to well over 1000 degrees at the very heart of the brake pad during heavy braking and can cause brake fade or loss of brake effect. These "Full sweep" slots on the EBC Sport Brake rotor also wipe away dirt, dust, debris and water from the (Read more ...)
