BRAKES
Power Stop
Power Stop Extreme Performance brake rotors and pads were first introduced in California in 1997. Over the years,
Power Stop has earned a reputation for high quality by assuring tight tolerances and the best materials. Our
mission is to provide the best solution for your vehicle's braking problem. Power Stop uses extensive testing to
develop the best rotor and pad combination for your vehicle and driving style. We take the guess work out of
selecting the right pads and rotors. Check out our application guide for more details.
Today, Power Stop is more committed to new product development and innovation than ever before. Our
demanding criteria mandates high pad bite without high temperature fade or pedal pressure deterioration. We use
independent dynamometer testing to validate brake performance including pre-burnish (green) friction, high
temperature brake fade, pedal pressure sensitivity, speed sensitivity and noise. Visit our technical data page for
more information.
Power Stop's Chicago area distribution center is ideally located to service all parts of country quickly and cost
effectively. We manufacture a limited range of brake rotor applications in our Bedford Park, IL facility. A larger
percent of Power Stop performance brake rotors are manufactured to our specifications, blueprints and processes
developed over years of experience by our manufacturing partners overseas. Each rotor is carefully analyzed for the
best drill or slot pattern and modeled with CAD software. Power Stop drilled rotors are designed to maximize
convection heat transfer and work in concert with our high mu (friction coefficient) brake pads. We use the finest
castings and carefully countersink the holes to prevent stress risers. Power Stop stands behind our products with a
unique 2 year warranty against rotor cracking. The best warranty in the business.
EBC Brakes
Research and Development is the driving force of any successful brake manufacturer and EBC Brakes is proud of its
extensive R&D facilities located at its Bristol manufacturing plant which include full chemistry, friction
development and testing facilities including 5 dynamometers.
Headed up by Steve Payne, a friction materials research engineer of 20 years experience, we are proud to have him
back to join the team in 2009. Steve has over 15 years experience in brake pad manufacture and has been tasked
with numerous special projects to develop the EBC Brakes and EFI products to new levels of performance and
market acceptance.
Once formulated, every EBC Brakes compound is subject to conformity of production tests (to ensure compliance
with R90 regulation) but is also fine tuned within the R90 parameters to constantly ensure that the product
performs to exacting standards.
The R&D engineers are responsible for researching, testing and homologation of not just established production
formulations but new elements and ingredients and production methods that can make pads more consistently
and with higher quality thresholds.
The R&D team is also responsible for factory trouble shooting and perfecting the production process which
includes minimisation of rejects and production efficiency.
Every batch of brake pads made at EBC Brakes is subjected to rigorous testing including destructive sheer testing,
density testing, sonar and ultrasonic testing, compressibility testing and friction level testing to ensure that every
batch that leaves our factory is perfect.
