Product Information

Full details

The EBC Redstuff Rear Brake Pads (DP3826C) are designed for performance road driving and occasional track day use in vehicles above 200 BHP. They offer a significant improvement in stopping power with dramatically reduced dust and disc scoring. A key caveat is that their harder compound requires a longer bedding-in period to reach optimal performance.

FAQs

Are EBC Redstuff pads suitable for daily driving?

Yes, they are designed for performance road driving and offer low dust, making them suitable for daily use, especially in vehicles with higher horsepower.

How long does it take to bed in EBC Redstuff pads?

The bedding-in process for EBC Redstuff pads can take up to 1500 miles (2500 km) of urban driving to achieve their optimal performance levels.

Will these pads work on a car with less than 200 BHP?

While they can be used, Redstuff pads are optimized for performance cars above 200 BHP. For lower-powered vehicles, other EBC pad ranges might offer a better balance of performance and value.

Are these pads noisy?

EBC Redstuff pads are designed for quiet operation and significantly reduced dust compared to many performance pads.

Can I use Redstuff pads for track days?

They are suitable for occasional track day use, but for frequent or demanding track use, EBC's Yellowstuff or Bluestuff materials are generally recommended.

What is the main advantage of Redstuff pads over standard pads?

The primary advantages are significantly improved stopping power, drastically reduced brake dust, and minimized disc scoring, all while maintaining relatively quiet operation.

Do I need to replace my brake rotors when installing these pads?

It is highly recommended to use new or resurfaced brake rotors when installing performance pads like the Redstuff to ensure proper bedding and optimal performance. Inspect your existing rotors for wear, scoring, or warping.

Troubleshooting

Squealing noise during braking

This can occur during the bedding-in period. Ensure the pads are correctly installed with anti-squeal shims if provided. If noise persists after full bedding, re-check installation and ensure rotor surface is clean and true.

Reduced braking performance initially

The Redstuff pads require a significant bedding-in period. Performance will improve as the pads wear in. Ensure the bedding procedure has been followed correctly.

Excessive dust (contrary to low-dust claims)

Ensure the correct product variant is installed. Check if the bedding-in process is complete. Some dust is normal, but excessive dust may indicate an issue with the installation or pad material.

Vibration or pulsing felt through the brake pedal

This often indicates uneven rotor wear or contamination. Ensure brake rotors are clean, flat, and within thickness specifications. Re-check caliper mounting and pad seating.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Significantly improved braking performance compared to standard pads.
Extremely low dust output for cleaner wheels.
Reduced risk of disc scoring.
Durable compound suitable for performance driving.
Quieter operation than many performance pads.

Cons

Requires a longer bedding-in period (up to 1500 miles/2500 km) to reach full potential.
Harder compound may slightly increase initial wear on rotors if not properly bedded.
Primarily suited for performance vehicles, may be overkill for standard daily drivers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Ensure these rear brake pads (DP3826C) are compatible with your specific vehicle's make, model, and year. Refer to the product's application list or consult a professional if unsure. These pads are typically designed for performance vehicles with engines over 200 BHP.

Installation: Brake pad installation should ideally be performed by a qualified mechanic. Improper installation can lead to brake failure. The process involves removing the caliper, old pads, and installing the new EBC Redstuff pads, ensuring all components are correctly seated and torqued.

Bedding-In Procedure: This is a critical step for Redstuff pads. Follow the manufacturer's recommended bedding-in procedure meticulously. Generally, this involves a series of moderate to firm stops from various speeds without coming to a complete halt, allowing the pads and rotors to cool between stops. A full bedding cycle can take up to 1500 miles (2500 km) of driving. Avoid aggressive braking during the initial period.

Care: Minimal care is required due to the low-dust nature. Inspect brake pads regularly for wear. Keep the braking system clean from excessive debris. If cleaning is necessary, use a brake cleaner specifically designed for your vehicle and a soft brush or cloth. Avoid high-pressure washing directly on the brake components.
