How long does it take to break in these EBC Redstuff brake pads?

EBC recommends a break-in period of up to 1000 miles for these pads. During this time, the pad material needs to fully conform to the shape of your brake rotors to achieve optimal performance and quiet operation.

Will these pads create a lot of brake dust?

No, these Redstuff pads are specifically designed to be the lowest dust pad EBC offers, reducing dust by 60-90 percent. The minimal dust produced is also easier to clean as it doesn't contain steel fiber particles.

What is the EBC Brake-In surface coating?

The Brake-In surface coating is applied to the pad material by EBC. It helps to condition the surface of your brake rotors and accelerates the initial bed-in process, allowing you to experience the improved braking performance sooner.

Product Details

When you're looking to upgrade the braking performance on your European sedan, especially if you're tired of constantly cleaning brake dust, EBC's Redstuff Ceramic pads are a solid option. These pads are designed to offer a noticeable improvement in stopping power, particularly during repeated heavy braking, while also significantly reducing the amount of dust that ends up on your wheels. They're a popular choice for vehicles like the Mercedes-Benz CL500, CLS500, and E-Class models, offering a cleaner look and better performance than stock pads.

What sets Redstuff apart is its unique ceramic-fiber compound, enhanced with ceramic particles. This material provides excellent braking right from a cold start and continues to perform even as temperatures rise, making them ideal for spirited driving on the street. The compound is formulated to be harder wearing, which means they can last longer, but it also requires a patient break-in period of up to 1000 miles to ensure the pad fully conforms to the rotor surface. This careful bedding-in process is key to achieving their full performance potential and quiet operation.

EBC includes their Brake-In surface coating on these pads, which helps to condition your brake rotors and speed up the initial pad bed-in. This means you'll get to experience the improved stopping power and reduced dust sooner. If you're looking for a cleaner, more effective braking solution for your premium sedan, these Redstuff pads are a well-built choice.
