EBC DP81946RP1 Race Brake Pads - RP-1 Front

The EBC RP-1 is a dedicated motorsport brake pad designed for high-performance track and race use, engineered for drivers who demand exceptional modulation and control under extreme braking conditions. These brake pads are intended for full track use only and are not suitable for use on road vehicles.

Performance Characteristics:

• Friction coefficient of 0.45 across a broad temperature range (100-750°C or 200-1400°F)
• Softer pad material enables finer control and more precision when braking
• Progressive pedal feel with unrivalled modulation, without the snatchy feel or high noise levels of other race pads
• Exceptionally low disc wear, lower than virtually all other competitor race materials tested by EBC Racing
• Progressive response particularly advantageous for vehicles that tend to be over-servoed

Construction & Features:

• Manufactured entirely at EBC Brakes' Bristol, UK pad factory
• Made from a Carbon Kevlar blend of materials capable of temperatures and stability rarely seen in performance brakes
• Stainless steel backing plates to reduce heat conduction without the need for paint
• Nucap NRS hook pad retention system on backplates completely eliminates the risk of pad debonding

Application Notes:

• 25% reduction in friction coefficient compared to RP-X, making RP-1 more suitable for light-medium weight cars, non-EBC Big Brake Kits, or vehicles with no ABS
• Highly effective when paired with various Big Brake Kits from other manufacturers
• Not R90 approved for road use in European markets
• Compatible with rotors: RK1606/RK7772/RK7421 (340/345mm diameter, 13.4 inch, vented, 5 bolt holes, D1359 FMSI design)

Important: Do not fit upgrade pads to rear of vehicle unless the same upgrade is fitted to front to maintain proper brake balance.
