FAQs

How do I know if I need to replace my brake pads?

Look for audible cues like squealing or grinding noises, a spongy feel in the brake lever, or a visual inspection showing the pad material is significantly worn down (typically below 1-2mm).

Are these pads suitable for daily commuting?

Yes, the Double-H Series pads offer excellent performance for both street use and more demanding riding conditions.

How many brake pads do I need to order?

Brake pads are sold individually per caliper. Most motorcycles have two calipers per wheel, and some may require different pads for the front and rear. Always check your motorcycle's specifications to determine the exact number and type of pads needed.

What is the recommended break-in procedure?

A common procedure involves 8-10 moderate stops from around 30-40 mph down to 10 mph, followed by a cooling period. Then, 5-6 harder stops from 50-60 mph down to 15 mph. Avoid full-on stops during the break-in period.

Can I use these pads on a track day?

Yes, the Double-H Series is designed for high-performance street and superbike use, making them suitable for track day applications.

What makes sintered pads different from organic pads?

Sintered pads are made from metallic particles fused together under heat and pressure, offering higher friction, durability, and consistent performance in extreme conditions compared to organic pads.

Troubleshooting

Brake fade or reduced stopping power

Ensure pads are properly bedded-in. Check for excessive heat buildup; the radiator plates should help, but ensure good airflow. Inspect rotors for damage or glazing.

Brake noise (squealing or grinding)

Verify correct installation and ensure anti-rattle clips or shims are in place. Clean caliper and rotor surfaces. Re-bed the pads if necessary. Grinding may indicate debris or worn-out pads/rotors.

Inconsistent braking feel

Check brake fluid level and condition. Ensure the brake system is free of air. Inspect rotors for warping or uneven wear. Confirm the correct pad model is installed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Exceptional braking power and responsiveness.
Consistent performance in both wet and dry conditions.
Durable construction for extended lifespan.
Reduces heat buildup in the braking system.
Award-winning and trusted quality.

Cons

Sold individually per caliper, requiring careful quantity calculation.
May require a break-in period for optimal performance.
Sintered pads can sometimes be noisier than organic pads if not properly maintained.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These brake pads are designed as a direct replacement for your motorcycle's existing sintered metal pads. Ensure your brake system is clean and free of debris before installation. It is recommended to follow the manufacturer's torque specifications for caliper mounting bolts.

Compatibility: Always verify that the EBC Brakes Double-H Series Sintered Motorcycle Brake Pad model (e.g., FA388HH) is listed as compatible with your specific motorcycle make, model, and year. Check your motorcycle's service manual for the correct pad type and quantity required per caliper.

Care: After installation, a proper bed-in procedure is recommended to achieve optimal performance and longevity. This typically involves a series of moderate stops from progressively higher speeds, allowing the pads and rotors to mate properly. Avoid aggressive braking immediately after installation. Regularly inspect pads for wear and clean brake components as part of routine maintenance.
