Best Brakes Ever?

EBC is poised to launch its new SC Super Ceramic range at the Las Vegas SEMA show this November. So, what is so good about this new material?

  • Pure ceramic base
  • Zero noise
  • Zero rotor damage
  • Lowest dust possible
  • Fantastic performance, even on track

This is surely a world first for EBC’s engineers in Bristol, UK, creating a world-beating brake material that achieves what other brake suppliers strive for but cannot beat.

The light brownish material is hidden beneath the Brake-In™ coating EBC applies to all pads, but below is a photo of an SC pad before the coating is applied. However, the light colour is not the real reason for the ultra-low dust.

…It’s the lack of disc/rotor abrasion that cuts the dust right down and here’s the proof.

The table below shows EBC tests of all the popular ceramic blends we could find, and just look at the abrasion numbers – EBC is the lowest.

Also note that some competitor materials wore extremely fast, even in this basic street test we call an AKM test – one didn’t even finish the test, and others left streaks or marks on the rotors.

Then we moved up a gear in our testing of Super Ceramic to the “Lapsim” test, which imitates hard track use:

  • SC came out best again among the popular ceramics tested.
  • EBC Super Ceramic carries a lifetime guarantee for low dust, noise and performance

Why try anything else?
