EBC Bluestuff NDX Street and Track Brake Pads DP5037NDX

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: 133 x 62 x 12mm

• 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 brake pads are designed for aggressive street driving and select track-day applications. Combining strong cold bite with progressive pedal feel, this high-friction compound helps provide confident braking from the first application and reliable stopping performance as temperatures rise. The DP5037NDX pad is especially well suited to vehicles equipped with quality aftermarket calipers, multi-piston brake systems, improved cooling, and larger rotors.

The Bluestuff NDX compound uses a chemical interlayer to promote a strong pad bond, while deep V-grooves help capture dust and improve airflow through the friction material. Low heat transfer helps protect the braking system, and the rotor-friendly formulation is designed to deliver smooth, consistent contact without scoring. Excellent release characteristics can help reduce drag in properly maintained brake systems.

Although Bluestuff NDX offers a broad operating range, brake system compatibility remains important. Older street-based calipers with substantial slider or caliper drag may limit performance, particularly during demanding track use. As with any performance brake upgrade, verify caliper condition, rotor compatibility, cooling, and vehicle application before installation. EBC Bluestuff NDX is intended for drivers seeking a street-capable pad with genuine track-day performance and strong, predictable braking response.
