Lower dust formula* (read below)

  
                   
                                   
                                                               
  Designed for premium street driving offering better brake effect at loads and speed. EBC Greenstuff has a high initial brake effect and gives drivers confidence from first application of the brake pedal. There is no such thing as a NO DUST pad. The very nature of how a brake works requires that some dust be generated to avoid Disc vibration (shimmying). The EBC pad creates less dust and dust is more easily washed off than most. All pads create more dust as they are bedding in especially if disc's are worn. Nominal friction coefficient 0.55. For heavier faster cars and vehicles above 200bhp we strongly recommend Redstuff which DOES offer much less dust.
           
     
NEW Yellowstuff 1793 Formula Race Pads Launched

The Ultimate Race Brake Pad for Highly Tuned Cars on both Street and Track

    
                                                               
    Although a full race material and capable of high temperature use with very good wear life, this new formulation sets a new trend in race type brake pad compounds. The bite from cold is superb which is uncommon with race materials (normally requiring warm-up) and makes this a pad which can be safely used on the highway as well as on the race track. This new formulation was used by numerous championship race and rally drivers in 2004 and is truly a milestone in brake pad material development.

Nominal friction coefficient 0.6 with zero rotor damage and similar dust to original pads.

          
                                       
               
                                                               
 Redstuff  and for Highly Tuned Cars/Faster Street Driving      
                                                               

 

 

 

     Since this material was introduced in late 2003, it has received many positive write ups from performance drivers of faster cars.  This is a truly impressive fast road pad for repeated heavy braking. It emits far less dust than semi-metallic pads and has been proven to stop a passenger car/sport car/hot hatches 13 metres quicker than OEM pads from 100mph/160kph.

Features EBC Brake-InTM surface coating which conditions rotor surface and accelerates pad bed-in.

Nominal friction coefficient 0.5 with approx. 50% dust reduction compared to other pads.
EBC Sport Rotors (Drilled & Slotted)              
                                                               
      Wide aperture grooves

Special disc alloys UNIQUE to EBC

Dimple hole construction

Balanced geometry

ADVANTAGES
The wider slot actually draws cool air across the pad surface keeping pads and rotors cooler. They also expel dust, dirt and hot gases better than fine slots which eventually fill with rust and scale and become ineffective in our opinion.
The blind drilled holes break down surface gases when braking from speed but do not weaken the rotor cross section as can happen with through drilling, thereby lessening the chance of rotors cracking over time and heavy use.
