Designed for high-performance track use, RP-1™ offers a moderately high friction level of 0.45 across temperatures from 100 to 750°C (200–1400°F). Its more progressive response makes it an excellent choice for vehicles with inherently over-servoed braking systems, where a softer pad compound enhances control and precision under braking.
RP-1™ also performs exceptionally well with many non-EBC Big Brake Kits, as its smoother response helps counteract the over-servoed feel that can arise when upgrading to larger brake discs and calipers with increased piston displacement.
