EBC RedStuff Premium Low Dust Brake Pads offer great performance over factory equipped pads, while also significantly reducing brake dust generation.
Tested at the UK Motor Industries Research Association (MIRA), Redstuff brake pads reduced car stopping distance in tests by almost 50 feet from 100 MPH offering a staggering 30% improvement in braking performance.
Redstuff pads are also a long-wearing pad. Due to this, it takes approximately 300 miles to fully bed in and become capable of its full performance. To assist the bed-in, all EBC Redstuff pads are surface coated with their Brake-in ™ pad break in accelerator compound.
Redstuff pad material is an aramid fibre-based brake compound enhanced with ceramic particles.
Key Features:
- Lowest dust EBC brake pads
- Capable of repeated heavy brake use without brake “Fall-Off”
- Very minimal disc/rotor damage
- Superb material for European vehicles
- ECE R 90 type approved for most cars
- Features red “brake in’ surface coating for instant safe braking after installation
- Made with Nucap NRS hooks on backplates to totally eliminate the chance of pad debond
Performance Information
EBC Redstuff are high performance low dust rating pads for faster street driving.
There are two reasons customers love Redstuff pads. The first reason is that they are the lowest dust pad offered: reducing dust by 60-90% vs factory pads. Plus, the very minimal amount of dust that is present is easily removed with a simple sponge wash since it contains no steel fiber particles like with factory pads. The second reason is that they bite like an alligator right from cold (as good as factory equipped pads or better) and only get better as they heat up.
Technical Information
Being a hard wearing pad, bed-in times can be as long as 1000 miles and drivers must be patient until the pad takes up the shape of their disc (brake rotor). This is a truly impressive fast road pad for repeated heavy braking.
Redstuff pads emit far less dust than semi-metallic pads and has been proven to stop a most cars up to 42 feet quicker than factory equipped pads from 100mph/160kph. Redstuff also pads feature an EBC Brake-In surface coating which conditions the rotor surface and accelerates pad bed-in. Nominal friction coefficient of 0.5 with approx. 50% dust reduction. Most EBC Red Ceramic pads are approved to ECE R90 brake safety regulation.
Comparison With Other EBC Street Driven Vehicle Brake Pad Compounds:
- EBC Ultimax - Equivalent to factory pad performance and dust generation. Fast bed-in. Long lifespan.
- EBC Greenstuff - Better braking performance with slightly more dust. Fast bed-in. Shorter lifespan.
-
EBC Redstuff - Better braking performance with significantly less dust generation. Fast bed-in. Slightly shorter lifespan.
- EBC Yellowstuff - Significant improvement in braking performance with high dust generation. Slightly longer bed-in. Long lifespan.
EBC Redstuff brake pads are not suitable for use on track
