EBC Bluestuff™ NDX Brake Pads
Bluestuff is an ideal choice for both entry-level track day enthusiasts and race drivers, offering excellent performance on the streets as it's R90-approved for street driving. The Bluestuff range features two distinct compounds: the Bluestuff NDX, with a higher friction coefficient of 0.52 Mu, and the Bluestuff B, offering a slightly lower friction of 0.42 Mu.
Notably, Bluestuff stands out for its superior cold friction capabilities and controllability, making it a preferred option for performance road car drivers. Bluestuff has now achieved R90 approval for most E.U. fitments. This milestone makes Bluestuff the first track-focused brake pad that is also fully legal for public road use across Europe, eliminating the need for E.U. customers to report the installation of these R90-approved pads to their insurance companies.
For those familiar with EBC’s acclaimed Yellowstuff material, Bluestuff offers a similar friction profile but takes it up a notch. It boasts a higher friction coefficient over a larger working range, akin to Yellowstuff enhanced with a double dose of espresso. Bluestuff's advantages include a quicker bed-in time, a high friction coefficient without the grabbiness, and exceptional pedal modulation. This pad enhances EBC's Yellowstuff material by offering even greater fade resistance, ensuring a top-notch track pad experience.
Bluestuff™ Performance
Discover the efficiency of EBC Bluestuff, expertly heat-scorched for quicker bedding-in. For optimal performance gently use the brakes for the first 200 miles, progressively intensifying usage in a secure road setting. This will ensure you're fully confident in their stopping power under various driving conditions.
Initial brake fade and a noticeable scent during the bedding-in process are normal and indicative of the pads adjusting. Once cooled, you'll appreciate a noticeable improvement.
EBC employs advanced infrared lamp tunnel technology for surface scorching, ensuring every pad, including the Bluestuff NDX range, meets our high-quality standards. This process is integral to delivering superior brake pads.

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.
