EBC UD398 Ultimax OEM Replacement Disc Brake Pads

The EBC Ultimax UD398 is a premium OEM-replacement disc brake pad engineered for everyday street driving. Manufactured at EBC's Bristol, UK facility, the Ultimax is a beautifully engineered brake compound that lasts well, produces minimal dust, and is the perfect choice for the urban or daily driver. As a fully ECE R90-approved friction material, these pads are an exact equivalent to the original equipment pads fitted to your vehicle from the factory — but for far less money.

Key Features:

• Shimmed, chamfered, and slotted construction incorporating EBC's unique Brake-In® coating for super-quick pad bed-in
• Gentle on rotors, low dust output, and engineered without excessive steel fiber content
• Disc wear is reduced by up to 50% compared to more abrasive semi-metallic pads — it is quite common to see one rotor last through two sets of EBC pad lifetimes
• Designed with road driving in mind, performing equally well in cold and wet conditions as in dry, mild weather
• Fully ECE R90 approved — a black-coded pad in the EBC range, priced at a fraction of original OEM parts yet totally equivalent in brake safety performance
• Produced 100% in EBC's own factories in the UK and USA

The pad's unique Brake-In™ coating ensures an accelerated bed-in period, followed by progressive braking feel for the entirety of its usable lifespan. The Ultimax series is EBC's worldwide best-selling brake pad line, with tens of millions of sets sold — a proven, trusted formula that has remained consistent over the years.
