Built specifically for the MK7 Fiesta ST on track, the EBC Racing RP-1 front brake pads deliver a moderately high friction level of 0.45 across a wide temperature window of 100 to 750°C (200 to 1400°F), giving drivers confident stopping power from the first lap to the last.
Progressive response, not aggressive bite. The RP-1 compound produces a more linear, progressive pedal feel compared to higher-aggression race compounds. That characteristic makes it particularly well-suited to vehicles that feel over-servoed from the factory, where a softer material gives the driver more finesse and control under hard braking rather than an abrupt, difficult-to-modulate initial grab.
Compatible with big brake kit upgrades. Larger-diameter rotors and calipers with high piston displacement amplify servo sensitivity, often creating that over-servoed sensation. RP-1 pads counteract that effect by smoothing out the response, so the upgrade feels balanced rather than twitchy on corner entry.
Wide thermal operating range. With a consistent friction coefficient maintained from 100°C all the way to 750°C, these pads stay predictable through heat cycles, endurance stints, and back-to-back sessions without the fade that kills confidence mid-corner.
Product Benefits
- Friction Level 0.45: Moderately high and consistent from 100 to 750°C (200 to 1400°F).
- Progressive Pedal Feel: Linear bite progression suits drivers who prefer finesse over immediate aggression.
- Over-Servo Correction: Ideal for stock and big-brake-kit setups where the pedal feels hypersensitive.
- Direct Fitment: Front axle fitment for the 2012-2017 MK7 Fiesta ST with no modification required.
- Track-Focused Compound: Engineered for vehicles driven hard on circuit, not light-duty street use.
- Broad BBK Compatibility: Works with many non-EBC big brake kits to restore balanced pedal response.
About EBC Racing: EBC Racing produces brake compounds specifically for motorsport applications, covering everything from club-day hatchbacks to professional endurance racing. The RP-1 and RP-X lines represent distinct philosophies in pedal response, allowing drivers to select the characteristic that matches their driving style and brake system setup rather than defaulting to a one-size-fits-all compound.
