EBC Bluestuff NDX Front Brake Pads for 2020+ Tesla Model Y Performance, DP52418NDX

Bluestuff NDX is a high friction sport and race material that can be used for aggressive street driving and certain types of track use. The material has had much success on the track with quality aftermarket calipers (Multi piston systems with better release and cooling and larger rotors) and limited success with street based calipers where pad size and caliper drag can challenge any brake material. The biggest advantage of EBC Bluestuff NDX is their bite from cold and progressive brake feel and the ability to bring a car to a complete stop. This has led to the ECE R90 brake safety regulation approval of R90 which is now completed and certificates are being obtained (during July 2011). There are certain older street based caliper systems where even the new Bluestuff will have trouble handling the caliper and slider drag inherent in the systems but this scenario is exactly the same for our competitors. There is NO material that will be PERFECT on the track in all older street based caliper systems. Pad Dimensions: 131.8 x 84 x 15.3mm

• Chemical Interlayer Pad For Super Strong Pad Bond
• Deep V Grooves Catches Dirt Dust/Improves Venting
• Huge Lifetime Almost Double Previous EBC Products
• Surfaces Are Left Smooth And Not Scored
• Worlds First Street And True Track Pad
• Low Heat Transfer
• Easy On Rotors
• Great Release

EBC Bluestuff NDX front brake pads are designed for aggressive street driving and select track applications on the 2020 and newer Tesla Model Y Performance. The Bluestuff NDX compound delivers strong cold bite, progressive brake feel, and dependable stopping performance from the first application. This makes it a practical choice for drivers who need confident braking on the street while also seeking enhanced performance during occasional track use.

The EBC DP52418NDX pad features a chemical interlayer for strong pad bonding, deep V grooves that help capture dust and improve ventilation, and a smooth friction surface designed to be easier on rotors. Bluestuff NDX also provides low heat transfer and consistent release characteristics. Its performance is best matched with upgraded multi-piston calipers, improved cooling, and larger rotors; results may vary with older street-based caliper systems that experience significant pad drag or slider resistance.

These EBC Bluestuff NDX pads are engineered as a high-friction street and race material with a long service life compared with previous EBC performance compounds. The formulation has achieved ECE R90 brake safety regulation approval, supporting its use where certified braking performance is required. Professional installation and proper bedding procedures are recommended to help achieve optimal friction material performance and rotor compatibility.
