Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these pads suitable for racing?

The EBC FA135R "R" series pads are designed for non-competitive daily use and offer high duration. They are not intended for professional racing applications where extreme performance is required.

What does 'Sintered "R"' mean?

'Sintered' refers to the manufacturing process where materials are heated and fused together. The 'R' denotes this specific sintered compound designed for off-road durability and resistance to elements.

How many brake discs does one pair of pads cover?

One pair of EBC FA135R brake pads is designed for one brake disc. If your vehicle has dual front disc brakes, you will need to purchase two pairs.

Can I use these pads in wet or muddy conditions?

Yes, the compound is specifically formulated to offer resistance to mud, water, sand, and gravel, maintaining performance in challenging off-road conditions.

Where are these brake pads manufactured?

The compound for the EBC Sintered "R" Brake Pads is made in the USA.

How do I ensure compatibility with my vehicle?

Always check your vehicle's specific make, model, and year against the EBC product compatibility list or consult your owner's manual and a qualified mechanic.

What is the benefit of reduced disc wear?

Reduced disc wear means your brake rotors will last longer, potentially saving you money on replacement parts and maintenance over time.

Troubleshooting

Brake lever feels spongy or has reduced stopping power.

This could indicate air in the brake lines or worn pads. Ensure pads are correctly installed and bedded in. If the issue persists, the brake fluid may need to be bled or replaced.

Brake noise (squealing or grinding).

Inspect the brake disc for damage or contamination. Ensure the pads are seated correctly in the caliper. Sometimes, new pads may exhibit temporary noise during the bedding-in process.

Pads wear out unusually quickly.

Confirm that the pads are indeed compatible with your vehicle and that the brake system is functioning correctly (e.g., caliper not sticking). Check for any damage to the brake rotor.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Before purchasing, verify that the EBC FA135R brake pads are compatible with your specific motorcycle's front brake system. Refer to your vehicle's manual or consult a professional if unsure. The sale is for one pair of pads, sufficient for one brake disc.

Installation: Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or individual experienced with brake systems. Ensure the caliper and mounting hardware are clean. Follow the vehicle manufacturer's recommended procedure for brake pad replacement.

Care: After installation, a proper bedding-in procedure is recommended to ensure optimal performance and longevity. Ride gently for the first few miles, applying brakes lightly and intermittently to allow the pad material to mate with the rotor. Periodically inspect pads for wear and clean caliper components as part of routine maintenance. Avoid harsh cleaning chemicals directly on the pads.
