The EBC Redstuff Ceramic Low Dust Brake Pads are engineered to provide superior braking performance for BMW 5 Series models from 1998 to 2003, including the 540i, 530i, and 528i. Constructed with a synthetic fiber-based brake compound enhanced with ceramic particles, these pads deliver consistent, fade-free braking with minimal dust emissions. Their innovative formulation reduces brake dust by up to 90 percent compared to traditional semi-metallic pads, resulting in a cleaner wheel appearance and easier maintenance. The pads are also designed with the EBC Brake-In surface coating, which conditions the rotor surface and accelerates the pad's bedding process, ensuring optimal contact and braking efficiency from the outset. The nominal friction coefficient of 0.5 guarantees balanced braking power while maintaining a quiet, smooth operation. These pads are approved under ECE R90 safety standards, confirming their reliability and safety for road use. Featuring vented design and a 298mm diameter, they fit seamlessly into your vehicle's braking system, offering enhanced stopping power for spirited driving or heavy braking scenarios. With a bed-in period of up to 1,000 miles, patience is required initially, but the result is a pad that provides longer wear, better braking, and quieter operation over time. Whether you're upgrading for performance or seeking cleaner brakes, the EBC Redstuff ceramic pads are an excellent choice for a fast, reliable, and low-dust brake solution.
