EBC Brakes ED+ Brake Pads
EBC Brakes ED+ Brake pads are specifically designed for SUVs, 4×4s and Jeeps™ that require better braking power at higher speeds and heavier loads.
If you are looking for a more reliable brake and extended service life, try EBC Extra Duty ED+ brake pads.
The most effective and economical way to upgrade your brakes is to switch to upgraded brake pads, such as ED+ from EBC Brakes. These provide better braking performance, longer life and are more resistant to heat. Manufactured exclusively by EBC in the UK, EBC Brakes ED+ consists of aramid fibre plus a negligible amount of steel fibre. EBC Brakes ED+ is gentle on the brake discs and emits very little brake dust.
Why EBC Brakes ED+ brake pads?
Large American SUVs with tyres that have a large outside diameter pose a problem for the braking system. This is not a criticism of car manufacturers, but an explanation of what happens with larger off-road tyres.
1. The first problem is thermal or kinetic energy on a heavy 2.3 tonne car/truck with 700 HP+ where the brake pads get too hot and "fade". Therefore, brake pads that are more resistant to heat are required.
2. Let's look at two vehicles. We have a Mustang Gen 6 and a RAM TRX, both with 380 mm brake discs, or a Raptor with 350 mm brake discs. The tyre rolling radius on a Mustang is 34.29 cm. and on a TRX 43.94 cm. which is an increase of 22% compared to the Mustang
3. The final problem is "spongy" brake pedal that can occur during heavy deceleration as the caliper has to do more work due to the larger tyre diameter. The solution is higher friction brake pads, which reduce the need for higher pedal or caliper pressure.
With EBC Brakes ED+ Brake Pads you get:
- Longer service life
- Brake-in coating for faster break-in and safe operation from the start
- Better braking performance than most aftermarket pads out there
- Withstands a wide range of operating temperatures
- Double track to reduce noise and emissions (fading)
- After running in (900 - 1500 km) they are free of noise.
- Made with Nucap NRS backplate for 5 x the bond strength of conventional brake pads.
Allow the brake pads to adapt to the discs during normal "city driving" for the first 900 - 1500 km. and follow up with 15 medium to heavy braking sessions to complete the break-in and hardening process.
