FAQs

Are these pads suitable for racing?

No, the EBC FA270R 'R' Series pads are designed for non-competitive daily off-road use and prioritize durability and resistance to elements over outright racing performance.

How many pads are included?

The product is sold as a pair, meaning it includes the necessary pads for one axle (rear).

What is the main advantage of sintered pads?

Sintered pads, like the FA270R, offer significantly higher durability and better performance in wet, muddy, or sandy conditions compared to organic pads. They also tend to reduce brake disc wear.

How do I clean my brake pads?

You cannot effectively clean worn brake pads. However, you can clean the brake caliper and rotor with water after riding in mud or dirt. Ensure the brake system is dry before riding again.

What is the recommended break-in procedure?

A typical break-in involves a series of moderate stops from low speeds, gradually increasing speed and intensity without fully stopping for the initial few applications. Always refer to your vehicle's service manual for precise instructions.

Will these pads fit my specific Polaris model?

These pads are listed as compatible with several specific Polaris models and years. Please check the compatibility list in the 'Setup, Compatibility & Care' section to confirm if your model is listed.

Troubleshooting

Brake noise after installation

Ensure pads are properly bedded-in. Check that the brake caliper is clean and slider pins are lubricated. Verify that the pads are seated correctly and not rubbing.

Reduced braking performance

Check for contamination (mud, water, debris) on the pad surface or disc. Ensure the brake fluid is at the correct level and in good condition. Inspect the brake disc for damage or excessive wear.

Pads wear out quickly

Confirm the pads are suitable for your riding conditions. Sintered pads offer high durability but may wear faster under extreme conditions or if subjected to excessive grit. Ensure the brake system is functioning correctly and not dragging.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These rear brake pads are compatible with the following Polaris models:

  • Trail Blazer 250 (1999-2006)
  • Xplorer 4x4 250 (2000)
  • Magnum 2x4 325 (2000-2001)
  • Magnum 4x4 325 (2000-2001)
  • Trail Boss 325 (2000-2002)
  • Xpedition 325 (2000-2001)

Setup: Installation should be performed by a qualified technician following your vehicle's service manual. Ensure the caliper is clean and the slider pins are lubricated. Always replace brake pads in pairs. After installation, a proper bedding-in procedure is recommended to ensure optimal performance and longevity. Consult your vehicle's manual for specific bedding-in instructions, but generally, this involves a series of moderate stops from a low speed, gradually increasing speed and intensity without coming to a complete stop for the first few applications.

Care: Regularly inspect brake pads for wear. Keep the brake system clean by rinsing with water after muddy or dusty rides. Avoid using high-pressure cleaners directly on the brake caliper. Periodically check brake fluid levels and condition.
