EBC Bluestuff NDX is a high friction sport and race compound built for aggressive street driving and track use. Its defining trait is bite from cold and a progressive pedal that carries the car to a complete stop, which separates it from race compounds that need heat before they work. A chemical interlayer bonds the friction material to the backing plate, deep V grooves clear dirt and dust while venting the pad face, and low heat transfer keeps caliper and fluid temperatures down. EBC rates pad life at close to double its previous products, and the compound leaves rotor surfaces smooth rather than scored. Bluestuff NDX holds ECE R90 brake safety regulation approval.
