Stock brake pads on the Bronco Raptor were sized for a truck running factory tire dimensions. Swap to larger off-road rubber and that same pad is suddenly working harder, running hotter, and requiring more pedal pressure to haul down the same mass. EBC's Extra Duty ED+ pads address that directly with a higher-friction compound built to handle elevated heat loads and larger rolling radii without fade.
Higher friction where it counts. The larger tire diameter on the Bronco Raptor increases the effective rolling radius compared to a standard passenger car rotor pairing, which forces the caliper to work harder on every stop. ED+ raises the friction coefficient to compensate, reducing the pedal effort and caliper pressure needed to achieve confident deceleration, even under repeated hard use.
Fade resistance at real-world temperatures. EBC validates the ED+ compound at 400 degrees Celsius, a threshold that reflects the heat loads a heavy, high-powered truck with oversized tires actually generates during aggressive braking. The aramid-fiber and low-steel construction maintains a stable friction level as temperatures climb rather than tapering off when the pad needs to perform most.
Manufactured entirely in the UK from premium materials. Every ED+ pad leaves EBC's own factory, built from aramid fibers and a minimal amount of steel fiber. That construction keeps rotor wear low and brake dust minimal compared to heavier metallic compounds, so rotors last longer alongside the pads.
A cost-effective first step before bigger hardware. Many Bronco Raptor owners considering a big brake kit will find that a compound upgrade alone resolves pedal feel and fade complaints. ED+ lets you confirm whether improved friction is all you need before committing to larger rotors or calipers.
Product Benefits
- Front Fitment: Direct-fit front brake pads for the 2022+ Bronco Raptor.
- Higher Friction Compound: Reduces pedal effort and caliper pressure demands created by large off-road tire diameters.
- 400°C Validated: Compound tested at high temperatures to confirm fade resistance under heavy truck braking loads.
