Redstuff Ceramic - 3000 Series Performance Brake Pads - For Highly Tuned Cars and Fast Street.
This material is a Kevlar® fibre based brake compound enhanced with ceramic particles. Updated from the previous generation pre-ceramic compound, this material is light years ahead. It lasts longer, it brakes better and is quieter. Being a hard wearing pad, bed-in times can be as long as 1000 miles and drivers must be patient until the pad takes up the shape of their disc (brake rotor).
This is a truly impressive fast road pad for repeated heavy braking. It emits far less dust than semi-metallic pads and has been proven to stop a passenger car/sedan/sport compact/hot hatch 13 metres quicker than OEM pads from 100mph/160kph. Features EBC Brake-In surface coating which conditions rotor surface and accelerates pad bed-in. Nominal friction coefficient 0.5 with approx. 50% dust reduction compared to other pads.
Features:
* High Initial Brake Effect
* Strong Resistance To Fade Under Load
* Reduced Rotor Wear
* Low Dusting Of Wheels
* Shimmed; Chamfered; And Slotted
* Features EBC Brake-In Coating For Fast Break In
* Zero Noise And Extended Lifetime
* Accepts factory brake wear sensor
NOTE:
Brakes are a safety critical part of your vehicle and should be installed by a competent mechanic following vehicle manufacturers installation procedure. The surface of these brake pads is coated with a red coating known as BRAKE-IN. This coating helps your newly installed brake pads to 'seat' or bed-in quickly. However, pads should be used gently for the first 100 miles until optimum braking is observed. Being a hard wearing pad, bed-in times can be as long as 1000 miles and drivers must be patient until the pad takes up the shape of their disc (brake rotor).
NOTE:
Follow manufacturers instructions for 'bedding in' new pads.
Not for track use.
For 2007+ MINI Cooper and Cooper S Hardtop and the 2008+ R55 MINI Cooper and Cooper S CLUBMAN. Select model from the pull-down menu.
MINI recommends the brake fluid be replaced every 2 years. See ATE Super Blue for replacement brake fluid. ATE Super Blue is a high quality performance fluid that will last much longer than the standard DOT4 fluid. This is an ABS friendly fluid.
ATE® Super Blue has a dry boiling point of 536F and a wet boiling point of 396F which far exceeds standard brake fluids meeting the DOT 4 requirements. This fluid is NOT SILICONE and is compatible with conventional brake fluid. 100% synthetic fluid is specifically designed to resist the high temperatures of racing brakes and yet very suitable for daily driving.
