EBC DP3101C Redstuff 3000 Series Ceramic Low Dust Brake Pad Set

The EBC Redstuff DP3101C is a premium ceramic brake pad engineered for fast street driving, prestige imports, muscle cars, and high-performance European vehicles. Built on an aramid fiber-based compound enhanced with ceramic particles, Redstuff delivers exceptional stopping power with dramatically reduced brake dust and rotor wear — all while remaining completely street legal.

Why Choose EBC Redstuff?

• Ultra-Low Dust Formula: Reduces brake dust by 60–90% compared to OEM pads. The minimal dust produced contains zero steel fiber, making it easy to rinse off wheels with a simple sponge wash — no etching of alloy or lacquered wheel surfaces.
• Strong Cold Bite: Delivers confident braking response from the very first pedal application, matching or exceeding OEM pad performance from cold, and improving further as temperatures rise.
• Proven Stopping Power: MIRA-tested to stop a passenger car/sedan/sport compact 13 metres (approximately 42 feet) sooner than OEM pads from 100 mph (160 kph).
• Longer Pad and Rotor Life: The steel-fiber-free, non-metallic ceramic formulation significantly reduces rotor wear, extending the service life of both pads and rotors.
• EBC Brake-In™ Surface Coating: Factory-applied coating conditions the rotor surface and accelerates the pad bed-in process right out of the box.
• OE-Style Noise Reduction Shims: Powder-coated red pad plates are fitted with premium OE-style shims on the reverse to ensure quiet, squeal-free braking.
• Centerline Slot: Vents heat and gas to prevent thermal cracks and brake fade under repeated heavy braking.
• Environmentally Responsible: Copper-free and completely free of toxic materials including lead, nickel, and antimony sulfides. Carries the prestigious Leaf Mark with the highest N rating for environmental safety.
• Nominal Friction Coefficient: 0.5 with approximately 50% dust reduction versus semi-metallic alternatives.
• ECE R90 Approved: Most EBC Redstuff pads meet ECE R90 brake safety regulations and are fully street legal.

Important Bed-In Note: As a hard-wearing compound, Redstuff pads may require up to 1,000 miles of normal driving to fully seat against the rotor surface and achieve peak performance. Patient bed-in is essential for optimal results.
