Designed for vehicles driven hard on track, RP-1™ possesses a moderately high friction level of 0.45 between 100 – 750°C (200 – 1400°F). The more progressive response characteristic of RP-1™ makes it well suited for inherently ‘over-servoed’ vehicles where a softer pad material is desirable to allow greater finesse when on the brakes.
RP-1™ also works superbly when used with many competitors (non-EBC) Big Brake Kits, where the more progressive pad response helps to negate the over-servoed sensation often experienced after fitment of larger diameter brake discs and calipers with large piston displacements.
Focused trackday and race pad
Superb modulation gives unprecedented control and feel
Pads come thermally-bedded, eliminating “early life” fade making them a true “plug and play” track pad
Extremely low wear rate rivalling the best endurance pads available at a fraction of the price
Excellent wear life when operated at temperatures 100 - 750°C (200 - 1400 °F)
EBC’s world-class stainless-steel backplates, reducing heat conduction through the pad, helping to lower brake hydraulic temperatures
Made with Nucap NRS hooks on back plates to totally eliminate the chance of pad debond
Unlike most semi-metallic race pads, RP-1 relies on advanced organic friction technology and contains a low steel-fibre content making it very kind on brake discs without sacrificing pad wear
Features laser cut stainless steel backplates for zero corrosion or paint burn off as with other race pads.
