EBC UD1953 Ultimax Front Brake Pads for 2017-2019 Audi A4 2.0L Turbo (B9)

EBC Ultimax UD1953 front brake pads are engineered as a quality OEM replacement for the 2017-2019 Audi A4 2.0L Turbo (B9). Manufactured at EBC Brakes’ facility in Bristol, UK, the Ultimax compound is designed for dependable everyday braking, low rotor wear, and minimal dust. Its balanced friction characteristics make it well suited to urban driving, commuting, and general daily use in cars, light trucks, and SUVs.
The Ultimax friction compound uses an optimized blend that includes a small percentage of steel fiber to deliver consistent performance and value without the high steel content found in many competing replacement pads. After proper bedding, these pads provide confident braking across a broad operating range while supporting smooth, predictable pedal response. The compound has remained a proven part of the EBC range for years, reflecting its established performance and customer acceptance.
EBC UD1953 pads feature high-friction European-specification material, along with shims, slots, and chamfers to help promote quiet operation and consistent contact with the rotor. The set is designed around the original equipment application and includes OE-style hardware where applicable. These pads are also ECE R90 approved, supporting the required safety and performance standards for approved replacement brake components. For best results, installation should be performed by a qualified technician according to the vehicle owner’s manual and proper brake bedding procedures.
