Stock brake pads on the 2005-2010 Mustang V6 4.0L were sized for typical driving, not the repeated heavy braking that autocross and racing demands. EBC Redstuff ceramic pads slot into the rear caliper and immediately raise the bar on both stopping power and cleanliness, cutting brake dust by up to 90 percent while delivering a 15 percent improvement in braking effect over OEM.
Aramid fiber and ceramic construction that bites from cold. The Redstuff compound blends aramid fiber with ceramic particles to produce a pad that grips confidently from the first application, with no need to heat the brakes before trusting them. Performance continues to climb as temperatures rise, making these pads equally capable in daily commuting and aggressive back-road use.
The lowest-dust street pad EBC produces. Unlike semi-metallic compounds, the Redstuff formula contains no steel fiber particles, which is the primary source of stubborn, wheel-baked brake dust. Any residual dust that does accumulate wipes off with a simple sponge wash, keeping wheels cleaner between details.
EBC Brake-In surface coating eliminates the usual break-in guesswork. Each pad ships with a factory-applied red Brake-In coating that conditions the rotor surface on first use and accelerates pad seating. Because Redstuff is a hard-wearing compound, full bed-in can take up to 1,000 miles, so patience through the initial period is rewarded with consistent, fade-resistant performance afterward.
Engineered to hold up under repeated hard stops. The nominal friction coefficient of 0.5 and the aramid-ceramic matrix resist brake fade during back-to-back heavy braking events. Nucap NRS mechanical hooks are integrated into the backing plate, mechanically locking the friction material to the steel and eliminating any risk of pad debonding at high temperatures.
Product Benefits
- 15% Brake Improvement: High-friction formula delivers measurably shorter stopping distances versus OEM pads.
- Up to 90% Dust Reduction: Aramid-ceramic compound produces far less dust than semi-metallic alternatives.
- Steel-Fiber Free: No steel particles means residual dust washes off easily without staining wheels.
- Cold-Bite Performance: Grips immediately from ambient temperature and strengthens as heat builds.
- EBC Brake-In Coating: Red surface treatment conditions rotors on first use and shortens the bed-in window.
- Nucap NRS Hooks: Mechanical interlocks on the backing plate prevent friction material debonding.
- ECE R90 Approved: Meets European brake safety regulation standards for passenger car fitments.
- Fade Resistant: Capable of repeated heavy braking without performance fall-off.
- Direct Rear Fitment: Sized specifically for the 2005-2010 Mustang V6 4.0L rear calipers.
About EBC Brakes: EBC Brakes develops and manufactures friction products for street, track, and off-road applications, with compounds ranging from everyday low-dust formulas to full race materials. Each product line is validated through independent testing, including witnessed trials at the UK Motor Industries Research Association, to back performance claims with real data.
