EBC SV Series Severe Duty Pads Product Reviews

Designed primarily for ATV use in contaminated riding conditions the EBC SV series pads are a high density version of our successful R series pad blend.

Being higher in density these pads last longer than anything else in the EBC family and will stand up against any pad you can buy. They are also very low in rotor abrasion and will not damage your brake rotor.

If longest mileage and a pad that will last longer is your target buy, then SV Series is the choice to make.

Sintered copper brakes are made by one of two processes, pressure sintering in a vacuum furnace or sintering through a belt furnace in a controlled atmosphere. The steel backing plates for the brake pads are copper coated and a preformed sintered copper “Puck” is located onto pips in the plate (either male or female) and the parts are passed through a furnace. At a pre-determined temperature the copper coating under the pad puck melts and fused the puck and plate together.

Sintering is a very exact process and the EBC expertise has made it a world leader in such technology and gained it numerous OE contracts.

In the aftermarket EBC continues to offer sintered brakes for applications requiring longer life and higher heat performance and organic pads for sport and general purpose use.

Both work well in their respective markets and have a place in the industry, elsewhere on this website we can explain the merits of each compound type and assist you in choosing what is right for your riding requirements.

SAFETY CONCERN – USE OF ATVS/QUADS ON PUBLIC ROADS

Also in Europe we are seeing ATV’s used for highway use, some scary quick four wheelers are flying around on public roads these days and we wonder if the riders of those machines have paid enough attention to tire and brake choices which vary tremendously to what these units were designed for. Our advice here is, its all fine and dandy you riding an ATV at 70 MPH on a street but were your brakes designed with high heat capabilities, Generally ATV brakes are designed to last well in mud water and sand but not necessarily to handle the high speeds of street use.

EBC Brakes makes no warranty that its brakes will transform a machine designed essentially for off road use into a safe machine to use on the highway and all of our products are offered for OFF HIGHWAY use only.

If you do use you ATV on highway no matter what brakes you use, drive carefully and slowly and use the BEST brake pads you can buy.

EBC Brakes are NOT tested or approved for highway use on ATVs at this time and homologation and safety for highways use is totally the responsibility of the vehicle manufacturer.
