Following the hugely successful launch of RP-1â„¢, EBC Brakes Racing increases its motorsport brake pad range with the introduction of our latest ultra-high-performance track & race material, RP-Xâ„¢.
Designed for vehicles driven hard on track, RP-Xâ„¢ possesses a high friction level of 0.55 between 0 – 850 °C and achieves 100% brake effect from cold. This makes RP-Xâ„¢ an excellent choice for sprint racing or hill climb events, where full brake performance is essential without requiring any ‘warming up’, but also makes RP-Xâ„¢ well suited to any type of circuit use where a high initial bite and powerful brake response is desirable.EBC Racing would like to emphasise that it is not a case of RP-Xâ„¢ being ‘better’ than RP-1â„¢, rather it is ‘different’ and designed to provide a distinctly different response characteristic (more aggressive bite) which some drivers may prefer. For a detailed comparison between the 2 materials, please read the following article where we aim to help you make an informed choice on which material is likely to work best for your application and individual driving style:
