Stock brake pads are calibrated for street commuting, not the sustained heat cycles of a track day. EBC Bluestuff NDX pads for the 2013-2019 Fiesta ST 1.6T handle rotor temperatures from ambient up to 550°C (1000°F), delivering consistent bite from your first lap to your last.
Ready to work from the moment you arrive. Bluestuff beds in fast, which matters when your track time is limited. Rather than burning through early laps scrubbing in a new pad, these pads come up to operating temperature quickly and put you in the performance window almost immediately.
Rear-specific compound at 0.42 Mu. This rear application uses EBC's lower Mu Bluestuff formulation, calibrated for the reduced load demand on the rear axle of lighter performance cars. Brake bias stays predictable and balanced rather than fighting an overly aggressive rear pad.
NUCAP NRS bonding eliminates pad separation. The NDX friction material bonds to the steel backing plate using NUCAP's patented NRS hook system, a mechanical retention method that raises shear and bond strength by a factor of five over conventional adhesive bonding. Pad-to-plate separation under extreme heat is not a concern.
High-volume Vee grooves manage debris. Track use generates more rotor dust and friction debris than street driving. The machined Vee grooves channel that material away from the friction surface, maintaining consistent contact and extending pad life under hard use.
Product Benefits
- Fast Bed-In: Reaches full friction performance quickly, so lap time is not wasted on pad break-in.
- Thermal Range: Rated for rotor temperatures from ambient up to 550°C (1000°F).
- Rear-Tuned 0.42 Mu Compound: Lower friction coefficient matched to rear axle load requirements on lighter performance cars.
- NUCAP NRS Hook System: Mechanical retention raises shear and bond strength by five times over adhesive bonding alone.
- Vee Groove Design: Clears debris from the friction surface to maintain bite and extend pad service life.
- Race-Proven Material: Used by spec series cup car racing groups across Europe.
- Direct Fitment: Sized specifically for the 2013-2019 Fiesta ST 1.6T rear caliper.
About EBC Brakes: EBC Brakes develops and manufactures friction products for street, performance, and motorsport applications. The Bluestuff NDX line represents EBC's top-tier street-to-track compound, produced through a five-step manufacturing process developed in-house to advance bonding strength, consistency, and thermal stability beyond what conventional brake pad construction allows.
