EBC Redstuff ceramic brake pads are engineered for spirited street use and premium sedans, providing a significant reduction in brake dust—up to 50% compared to standard semi-metallic pads. This synthetic fiber-based compound is enhanced with ceramic particles, offering a high nominal friction coefficient of 0.5 for authoritative stopping power. Unlike traditional metallic pads, Redstuff contains no steel fibers, meaning the minimal dust produced is non-abrasive and easily washed away.

Designed to perform immediately from cold, these pads offer excellent bite that only improves as they reach operating temperatures. Each pad features the EBC Brake-In™ red surface coating, which conditions the rotor surface and accelerates the bed-in process. Please note that Redstuff is a hard-wearing material; a patient bed-in period of up to 1,000 miles is recommended to ensure the pads fully conform to the rotor surface for maximum performance.
