What is the EBC Brake-in coating on the pads?

The patented EBC Brake-in coating on the Ultimax pads helps to speed up the process of seating the pads to the rotors after installation. This means you can achieve optimal braking performance sooner after replacing your old parts.

Are the rotors coated to prevent rust?

Yes, the included rotors feature a Geomet anti-rust surface coating. This coating helps protect the rotors from corrosion during storage and after installation, maintaining their appearance and performance.

What is included in this kit besides pads and rotors?

In addition to the front and rear brake pads and rotors, this kit also includes caliper lube. This is a helpful lubricant to use during the installation process to ensure proper caliper function.

Product Details

When it's time to give your 1996 or 1997 Volkswagen Passat a full brake renewal, this EBC S20 kit makes the job straightforward. It bundles everything you need for both the front and rear axles, ensuring your car stops evenly and effectively. Often, people focus only on the front brakes, but the rear brakes can account for up to 40% of your vehicle's stopping power, so renewing them at the same time is a smart move for balanced braking performance.

Inside this kit, you'll find EBC Ultimax series pads, which are built with Aramid fiber for good daily driving performance. They come fully shimmed and chamfered, and feature EBC's patented Brake-in coating to help them seat properly after installation. The included rotors are direct fit OEM replacements, meaning they're made to install without any modifications. They have a Geomet anti-rust surface coating to help prevent corrosion and are balanced and runout tested to ensure smooth operation. This kit also includes caliper lube to help with the installation process.

Renewing your front and rear brakes simultaneously is a sensible approach to maintaining your vehicle's stopping ability. This kit simplifies that process by providing all the necessary components from a well-known brake manufacturer.
