EBC

BG Developments have been appointed as agents for EBC brake pads. These European-made Kevlar® pads, ideally suited to performance car applications, are notable for their high level of friction and resistance to fade. Other key features are their being easy of disc, without tendency to squeal. Another 'plus' point is their lack of dust - a vital aid to preserving the appearance of alloy wheels.

The EBC range of Kevlar disc brake pads conforms to the new international safety and quality standard E90, under which (from March 2001) all replacement brake pads must be comparable to original equipment pads in terms of performance. EBC calls the new E90 specification Reg 90 on all it's packaging, and all its products are now made and tested to this standard where appropriate.
