Stock brake pads on the Explorer ST balance cost and everyday comfort, not the repeated heavy stops that come with a loaded SUV pushing through mountain descents or aggressive highway driving. EBC's Greenstuff DP63118 front pads replace them with a compound built specifically for the demands of light trucks and SUVs, delivering a measurable improvement in braking effect right out of the box.
A meaningful step up in stopping power. Greenstuff 6000 Elite Series pads improve brake effect by more than 10 percent over stock, with full-grade better pedal response and brake control. The improvement is noticeable from the first stop and consistent through repeated heavy brake use without the fade or fall-off that plagues lesser compounds under sustained load.
Cleaner wheels, healthier rotors. The Greenstuff compound produces a medium dusting factor, meaning less brake dust coating your wheels compared to factory pads. Rotor wear is extremely low, so the pads work harder than stock without eating through your discs in the process.
Ready to work the moment installation is complete. Each pad features a red brake-in surface coating that delivers safe, effective braking immediately after fitting, with no lengthy bedding procedure required before the pads are trustworthy in traffic.
Built to stay bonded under stress. EBC machines Nucap NRS hooks directly into the backing plate, creating a mechanical interlocking bond between the friction material and the steel plate. This eliminates the possibility of pad debond, which is a failure mode that can occur on high-load applications when adhesive alone holds the compound in place.
