Bluestuff NDX is a superb 0.52 Mu compound entry-level race pad that is R90 approved for almost every application. A great choice for turn-up and race track events due to its short bed in time and medium plus lifetime. This compound has been the choice of the BMW cup series for several seasons.
When EBC say "Trackday" don't underestimate this fantastic material.
The reason EBC draw users' attention to the words Trackday ( also known in the USA as lapping ) is because of this material's fantastic ability to bed in quickly. Weekend fit and go drivers do not want to spend their laps bedding in brake pads.
Yet when used on more serious race track drivers this material delights and up to rotor temps of 0-550°C (Ambient - 1000°F) Bluestuff is the way to go. This material has been used by numerous spec series cup car racing groups in Europe.
The NDX pad material is bonded to the steel backing plates using the patented NUCAP NRS hook system which raises shear and bond strength by a factor of five and prevents pad to plate separation. The pads are then baked and ground and feature high-volume Vee grooves to catch the larger amount of debris from track use.
Target use is all types of fast and heavier cars in performance and race driving with a much enhanced lifetime over EBC's previous Yellowstuff grade pads.
Made with Nucap NRS hooks on backplates to totally eliminate the chance of pad debond.
Bluestuff is available in NDX high friction version at 0.52 Mu and a lower B version for many Front applications on lighter cars with a lower 0.42 Mu.
