EBC Brakes is a world leader in the manufactureing of disc brake wear components. In the 1970?s, EBC brakes was the first to develop a complete aftermarket range for the motorcycle industry, however EBC brakes are rapidly expanding in the automotive industry. EBC Brakes has become a world leader in sport, high performance and race brake pads and disc/rotors with a massive range of products. EBC claims to develop and manufacture the largest range of disc brake pads in the world, from mountain bikes, motorcycles, passenger cars, LCV, HGV, PSV, and rail applications using a range of specialist materials all developed in house at its R&D facility in the UK. The total range of EBC brake pads is supported by a range of Brake Discs specifically designed to complement the performance characteristics of EBC pads. These range from the Standard OEM replacement disc, Turbo Grooved Discs and Ultimax Sports discs.



Recently EBC brakes have launched another ground breaking material with its ECO friendly Ultimax 2 brake friction material that completely eliminated all heavy metals and sulphides. A bi-product of cheap brakes is a give off of toxic gas like Xylene vapour and in some cases Toluene, which are both nerve gases, and these are strictly forbidden at EBC brakes. EBC Brakes are proud and conscious of the products they produce and its impact on the environment, and therefore will never target to be the cheapest brakes.



The R&D engineers are responsible for researching, testing and homologation of not just established production formulations but new elements and ingredients and production methods that can make pads more consistently and with higher quality thresholds. Once formulated, every EBC Brakes compound is subject to conformity of production tests and fine-tuned to ensure that the product performs to exacting standards. Every batch of EBC brake pads is subjected to extensive testing including destructive sheer testing, density testing, sonar and ultrasonic testing, compressibility testing and friction level testing.



Many brake manufacturers of today still use antiquated and cheap ?steel fibre? based technology, EBC lead the way in clean and advanced brake formulations. Working with Aramid Fibres, gives EBC brakes endless flexibility n formulation that is unheard of with cheap bulky steel fibre competitor products. As a results, regular independent tests, EBC brake products are shown to not only meet but exceed OEM manufacturer parts but to also have a strong pad lifetime, low disc/rotor abrasion, heat performance, reduced break dust and be environmentally friendly.

Greenstuff and Redstuff branded EBC brake pads are aramid fibre automotive brake pads using high-tech fibres such as DuPont Kevlar and Twaron. EBC use these types of fibres to produce premium quality pads that deliver low disc wear with minimal dust. All EBC pads feature the company?s ?Brake-In? coating which helps to reduce bed-in time significantly. Centre line slots, to prevent cracking and noise and edge chamfers to further offset vibration and noise are all standard features on all EBC brake pads.

http://brakesdirect.com.au/fremax

Fremax began producing brake rotors and drums for the domestic aftermarket in 1990, and since then it has become the largest Latin-American manufacturer of brake rotors for passenger cars and commercial vehicles, focusing on replacement braking products for automotive equipment manufacturers and the aftermarket. Fremax?s mission as a company is to revolutionise, in a consistent and sustainable manner, the production and commercialisation of auto parts in the worldwide market.

Fremax is the official supplier to the most competitive car racing categories in South America, such as the Stock Car, Porsche Cup, F-3000 and Montana Cup. These competitive rotors are made of high carbon cast iron alloy with chromium which can withstand extreme conditions of use. When compared to the previous rotors used by these cars the new design allowed a reduction of rotor temperature at braking spots from 360 to 200 degrees Celsius. A better braking efficiency was thus achieved, allowing shorter braking space and a gain of 3 seconds per lap.



Fremax provides a special finishing in a wide variety of brake disc and drum applications, which consists of painting the hub with an automotive paint that withstands high temperatures and ensures maximum protection against corrosion. Fremax?s cast iron alloy rotors have higher carbon content, which have been successfully used in high-performance car racing applications. The reason for this being that the higher the carbon content, the more optimal thermal conductivity is increased, it helps to prevent brake judder, lessens braking noise due to a better damping coefficient higher resistance to distortion and thermal cracking and finally, increased braking safety and performance.

I have a question in regards to the dba 5000 series 2 piece 324mm slotted front rotors.

I am getting what feels like a warped disc or 2? on my zed and would like to know should I be considering machining or buying replacment rings?

Thanks

 

Hi Matt,

Sorry for the late reply.

I can tell you for a fact that your rotors are definitely not warped. It?s EXTREMELY rare that rotors warp, in facts it?s so rare I can?t ever say I?ve seen it and we sell thousands of rotors a year. What it?s more likely to be is something called disc thickness variation (DTV) where by the pad material has been laid down unevenly on the rotor, normally due to incorrect bedding in, overly soft pad compound (typical of genuine pads) or excessive wheel bearing float. Plus many other factors that people including mechanics don?t take into consideration when fitting new brakes.

For the age of the car, i would first have the wheel bearings checked. Generally speaking having the rotors machined can solve the problem or if it is the wheel bearings, have these replaced then still have the rotors checked for DTV because a worn bearing can start the process of DTV.

If you have any more questions, please dont hesitate to ask.

Regards Matt

 

Thank you! I had a bit of a look into dtv.

So is machining the best way to remove dtv after I've sorted the bearings etc?

I'll pm you in regards to some new pads in the near future also.

Matt

Hi Matt,

Pretty much. If you have had your bearings checked and or replaced and you are still getting the wobble through the steering wheel or pulsating through the pedal then yes getting the rotors machined or replaced is the next option.

Talk soon.

Regards Matt

 

Hi,

I'm after a full set of brake pads (front and rear) for z32 TT, standard Nissan calipers. Could you please quote the best price for a set of Remsa's and a set of QFM HPX, delivered to 3012.
