What is the benefit of the EBC Brake-In surface coating?

The Brake-In surface coating helps to condition your brake rotors and accelerate the pad bedding process. This means you can achieve optimal performance from your new pads more quickly and efficiently.

Are these pads suitable for track use?

These Redstuff pads are described as a fast street pad for repeated heavy braking. While they offer improved performance over OEM, they are not specifically designed for sustained track use where extreme temperatures are common.

About this part

Product Details

You're getting a set of EBC Redstuff ceramic front brake pads, designed specifically for your 2001-2005 and 2007-2014 Porsche 911. These pads are a popular choice for drivers looking to reduce brake dust significantly, often cutting it by 60-90 percent compared to stock. The dust that is produced is also easier to clean, as it doesn't contain steel fibers like many other pads.

Beyond the clean factor, these pads offer solid braking performance right from a cold start, and they continue to perform even better as they warm up. The material is a synthetic fiber compound with ceramic particles, making it a hard-wearing pad that's great for repeated heavy braking on the street. EBC includes their Brake-In surface coating, which helps condition your rotors and speed up the pad bedding process. Expect a nominal friction coefficient of 0.5, and a notable improvement in stopping distance compared to OEM pads.

Keep in mind that because these are a hard-wearing pad, the bed-in process can take up to 1000 miles. It's important to be patient during this time to allow the pads to fully conform to your brake rotors for optimal performance.
