Typical lifetime of the pad itself increases by 50% to 200% over conventional semi-metallic pads plus rotor wear is significantly reduced extending rotor replacement time. This material is being regularly supplied to Post Office and council utility vehicle fleets.

All DPC range pads are edge chamfered to reduce low speed brake noise and equipped with the EBC Brake-In coating for fast pad break in. This is a particular advantage for fleet operators "on the go" as pads can be fitted just prior to or during an MOT service and the vehicle will pass any brake test right after pad installation.
