For the ultimate durability EBC presents it’s “R” series high density ATV & dirt sintered series pads. A sintered copper material made in our own USA facility, the “R” Series of heavy duty ATV and moto-x pads have become an aftermarket standard offering high durability, high resistance to contamination by mud, water, sand and grit etc. offering reduced disc damage and long pad life.

Many of us enjoy riding off road with trying to be Malcolm Smith and getting the brakes red hot. For that group the R series pads are an ideal choice for Off Road Riding.

R series pads are also designed for minimum rotor abrasion and will not damage your bikes brake rotors.

Sintered copper brakes are made by one of two processes, pressure sintering in a vacuum furnace or sintering through a belt furnace in a controlled atmosphere. The steel backing plates for the brake pads are copper coated and a preformed sintered copper “Puck” is located onto pips in the plate (either male or female) and the parts are passed through a furnace. At a pre-determined temperature the copper coating under the pad puck melts and fused the puck and plate together.
