Stock brake pads on the EcoBoost Performance Package Mustang handle daily driving well enough, but repeated hard stops produce wheel dust that coats your wheels fast and compounds over time. EBC's Redstuff compound solves both the dust problem and the stopping-distance problem at the same time, giving the 2015-2023 Mustang EcoBoost PP a front brake pad that bites hard from cold and keeps biting under heat.
Dramatically less wheel dust. Redstuff's aramid fiber and ceramic particle compound generates 50 to 90 percent less dust than semi-metallic pads, and what little dust does appear contains no steel fiber particles, so a basic sponge wash clears it completely. Your wheels stay cleaner between washes without sacrificing friction.
Stronger stopping from the first press. EBC's own testing at the UK Motor Industries Research Association confirmed that Redstuff reduced stopping distance by nearly 50 feet from 100 mph, representing roughly a 30 percent brake improvement over OEM pads. A nominal friction coefficient of 0.5 and a 15 percent improvement in brake effect mean the pedal feels confident from the moment the car is cold, and performance only improves as the pads come up to temperature.
Built for repeated hard use without fade. Aramid fiber construction gives Redstuff a hard-wearing character that handles repeated heavy braking without the friction fall-off common in softer compounds. Rotor wear is kept minimal, protecting the investment in your brake discs alongside the pads themselves.
Ready to work immediately after installation. Each pad ships with EBC's red Brake-In surface coating already applied to the friction face. That coating conditions the rotor surface and accelerates the bed-in process so safe braking is available right after the wheels go back on. Full performance does develop over time, and bed-in can run up to 1,000 miles as the pad conforms to the rotor surface, so patience through the break-in period pays off in long-term consistency.
Engineered backplate construction. Nucap NRS mechanical hooks on the backplate lock the friction material to the steel carrier, eliminating the risk of pad delamination under high heat or aggressive use.
Product Benefits
- Aramid Fiber Ceramic Compound: Hard-wearing material handles repeated heavy braking without friction fall-off.
