EBC RP-X™ Racing Brake Pads
EBC Brakes Racing expands its portfolio of motorsport brake pads with the launch of the ultra-high-performance track and race material, RP-X™. This latest addition represents the pinnacle of braking technology, offering exceptional performance for the most demanding of track applications. Designed for drivers who seek uncompromising braking power, RP-X™ sets a new standard in the racing world, providing immediate and powerful brake response for competitive racing environments.
Please Note: These brake pads are intended for full track use only and are not suitable for use on road vehicles.
Designed for Vehicles Driven Hard on Track
RP-X™ is engineered for vehicles that demand peak performance on the track, offering a robust friction level of 0.55 across temperatures from ambient to 750°C (1400°F). It delivers immediate 100% brake effectiveness from cold, rendering it an exceptional option for sprint races or hill climb events where instant braking power is critical, without the need for prior 'warming up'. Additionally, RP-X™ is apt for all types of circuit racing, favored for its strong initial bite and potent braking response.
EBC Racing wishes to clarify that RP-X™ isn't necessarily 'superior' to RP-1™; it's 'distinctive' by design, offering a more aggressive bite that may align with certain drivers' preferences.
RP-X™ Features
- Entirely produced at EBC Brakes' manufacturing facility in Bristol, UK.
- Utilizes stainless steel backing plates to minimize heat conduction without the need for paint.
- Equipped with the Nucap® NRS® hook system for superior pad retention.
- Provides impressive pad longevity alongside satisfactory disc durability.
- Does not have R90 certification for use on European roads.
- Constructed using Nucap NRS hooks on the backplates, ensuring no risk of pad separation.

In the words of the Vehicle Standards Agency (VCA), type approval provides "confirmation that production and samples of a design will meet specified performance standards".
For emissions components this encompasses noise, emissions and balanced back pressure, which have a strong influence on maintaining engine performance (power), and fuel efficiency. Type approval ensures that an aftermarket component will reach, or exceed the performance standard of the corresponding OE part.
Type-approval then, is a certain guarantee that an end user will receive a product of OE equivalent performance attributes.
Products on the Progressive Parts website that meet this approval will be clearly marked or labelled EC or ECE approved.
