There is no such thing as a no dust pad. The very nature of how a brake works requires that some dust be generated to avoid rotor vibration (shimmying). The EBC pad creates less dust and dust is more easily washed off than most. All pads create more dust as they are bedding in especially if rotors are worn. Nominal friction coefficient 0.55. For heavier faster cars we strongly recommend Redstuff which does offer much less dust.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEBC Greenstuff 6000 Series features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAn excellent solution for 4×4 and light truck use, this heavy-duty Greenstuff™ Elite brake pad has the benefit of longer life and better resistance to off-road conditions of dust and sand etc. It has an extremely low rotor wear factor and a medium-to-good lifetime.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuperb daily driver R90 type approved pad.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures red “brake in’ surface coating for instant safe braking after install.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew 100 % ECO friendly material with ZERO sulphides.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo shims for noise reduction needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMore bite from cold.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks in hot and dry climates as well as in cold.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully R90 approved as was the original Ultimax grade.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUltimax offers great value for money and first class driving safety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA direct equivalent to OE brake pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for general public highway use in hot and cold climates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEBC's quietest pad formulation for silent braking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProgressive braking feel with excellent cold friction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake-In™ coating for accelerated pad bed in period\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eR90 approved thus legal for public highway use in European markets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade with Nucap NRS hooks on back plates to totally eliminate the chance of pad debond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot suitable for track use\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to Bed-in EBC Greenstuff™ Brake Pads\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEBC brake pads are now mostly self bedding.

After the first 100 miles or so, unless you are going to drive aggressively, there is nothing more to do meaning – most drivers happily use and enjoy their brake’s excellent performance for tens of thousands of miles after this point. If that’s your way of driving, nothing more needs to be explained.

The green fade point is 400C\/650F. There are two ways to know if you have passed the green fade point – one is via the use of heat paints, the second way is to guess. So heat paints are the better option.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou should drive with caution until bedded flat and you have passed this green fade point at least twice and then allowed the brake pads to cool so the disc is below 100C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003enote: image is for illustration purposes and may differ on delivery.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EBC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58232235819353,"sku":"DP2197\/2","price":75.08,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/7765\/9225\/files\/Greenstuff-pads_d72e09b4-06c1-480e-8a14-ed3be0068c53.jpg?v=1745257900","url":"https:\/\/www.rivalperformance.co.uk\/products\/ebc-greenstuff-brake-pads-front-lotus-elise-s1-s2-s3-340r","provider":"Rival Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
