Stock brake pads on the 2015-2020 F-150 2.7L EcoBoost were sized and compounded for average drivers, not for owners who want quieter stops, reduced rotor wear, and a pad that beds in fast. EBC's Ultimax2 rear pads deliver all three without stepping up to a track compound.
Quietest compound in the EBC lineup. The Ultimax2 formulation prioritizes near-silent operation, pairing it with progressive cold friction so pedal feel is predictable from the first press on a cold morning or in stop-and-go traffic.
Brake-In coating cuts the break-in window dramatically. EBC applies a factory-applied Brake-In coating to every Ultimax2 pad, accelerating the bed-in process so the pads reach full friction faster than uncoated alternatives. Shimmed, chamfered, and slotted construction further reduces noise and vibration at the caliper interface.
Extends rotor life alongside pad life. The Ultimax2 compound carries a nominal friction coefficient of 0.46 and causes significantly less rotor wear than semi-metallic pads. Rotor wear reduction reaches up to 50 percent compared to more abrasive compounds, meaning a single rotor can outlast multiple pad sets. Dust output stays close to OEM levels as well.
ECE R90 approved and highway legal. Ultimax2 pads meet ECE R90 brake safety regulations, confirming friction performance equivalent to the original equipment pads fitted at the factory. Every pad in the US Ultimax range includes shimming as standard, and Nucap NRS mechanical attachment hooks on the backing plate eliminate any risk of pad delamination over the service life.
Product Benefits
