Stock brake pads leave enthusiast drivers choosing between stopping power and filthy wheels. EBC's Redstuff compound delivers both, pairing an aramid fiber-ceramic formula with a 60-90% dust reduction rating so your 2015-2023 Mustang EcoBoost stops harder and keeps the wheels cleaner.
Ceramic-enhanced stopping power from cold. Redstuff bites immediately off cold pedal, matching or exceeding OEM pad performance the moment you move, then continues to improve as brake temperatures rise. The aramid fiber base enhanced with ceramic particles handles repeated heavy braking without the fade or "fall-off" that plagues softer street compounds.
Dramatically reduced dust, and what little appears wipes off easily. Because Redstuff contains no steel fiber particles, the minimal dust it produces does not bond to wheel surfaces the way semi-metallic residue does. A sponge wash removes it completely, preserving the finish on your wheels between detail sessions.
EBC Brake-In surface coating eliminates the guesswork. Every pad ships with a red pre-conditioning coating that conditions the rotor surface and accelerates the bed-in process from the first drive. Note that the aramid-ceramic compound is hard-wearing by nature, so full bed-in can take up to 1,000 miles. Patient break-in pays off with optimized contact geometry and consistent friction across the pad's full service life.
Proven at MIRA in witnessed testing. Early-generation Redstuff reduced stopping distance by nearly 50 feet from 100 mph in tests conducted at the UK Motor Industries Research Association, representing a 30% brake improvement over OEM pads. The nominal friction coefficient of 0.5 and a 15% brake effect improvement over stock reflect a compound built for repeated, aggressive street use. Most Redstuff pads carry ECE R90 brake safety approval.
Nucap NRS mechanical retention. The steel backplate uses Nucap NRS hooks rather than relying solely on adhesive bonding, mechanically locking the friction material to the plate and eliminating any risk of pad debond under sustained high-temperature use.
Product Benefits
- Aramid Fiber-Ceramic Compound: Hard-wearing material handles repeated heavy braking without fade or fall-off.
- 60-90% Dust Reduction: Significantly less wheel contamination than semi-metallic pads, with no steel fiber particles in the residue.
- Cold Bite Performance: Matches or exceeds OEM stopping performance immediately from a cold pedal.
- Brake-In Surface Coating: Factory-applied red coating conditions rotor surfaces and accelerates bed-in from installation day one.
- 15% Brake Effect Improvement: Higher friction coefficient over OEM pads delivers measurably shorter stopping distances.
- ECE R90 Approved: Meets European brake safety regulation standards on most fitments.
- Nucap NRS Backplate Hooks: Mechanical retention system prevents friction material debond under sustained heat.
- Rear Fitment Specific: Engineered for the rear axle of the 2015-2023 Mustang EcoBoost.
