EBC Ultimax2 front brake pads, part number UD652, provide a dependable OEM replacement solution for select Ford Explorer and Mercury Mountaineer applications. Designed for daily driving, urban commuting, and light truck or SUV use, these pads deliver consistent friction, controlled stopping performance, and low rotor wear. The Ultimax compound is manufactured in the United Kingdom at EBC Brakes’ Bristol facility and is engineered to provide long service life with minimal brake dust.
The EBC Ultimax2 pad incorporates a carefully balanced friction formulation with a limited amount of steel fiber to support durability and value without the excessive steel content found in some competing compounds. Once properly bedded, the pads offer reliable performance across a broad range of operating temperatures and driving conditions. Their high-friction European-spec material helps provide confident braking while maintaining smooth, predictable pedal response for everyday use.
Each pad is shimmed, slotted, and chamfered to help reduce noise and support clean engagement. OE-style hardware is included where applicable, helping simplify installation and maintain proper fitment. This vented brake application uses an FMSI pad number of D652 and is designed for the specified front brake system. EBC Ultimax2 pads are ECE R90 approved, demonstrating compliance with recognized brake safety and performance requirements.
These EBC UD652 front brake pads fit select 1995-2001 Ford Explorer models and 1997-2001 Mercury Mountaineer models, including applicable 4.0-liter and two-wheel-drive configurations. Confirm the vehicle application and existing brake hardware before installation. Brake service should be performed by a qualified mechanic or an experienced installer following the vehicle owner’s manual and proper bedding procedures.
