EBC Bluestuff NDX Front Brake Pads for Audi A3 2.0T (40) — High Friction Sport and Track Use

Description

The EBC Bluestuff NDX front brake pads are engineered for high-performance driving, offering exceptional stopping power for aggressive street and track applications. Designed specifically for the Audi A3 2.0T (40), these pads feature advanced materials that deliver consistent bite from cold and progressive brake feel, ensuring reliable performance in demanding conditions. The chemical interlayer enhances pad bond strength, while deep V grooves help evacuate dirt and dust, improving venting and maintaining optimal pad surface contact.
These vented pads are equipped with five bolt holes and a 306mm diameter, providing a secure fit and compatibility with various high-performance braking systems. The 50mm height and 26mm thickness contribute to increased durability and a longer lifespan, often nearly doubling the longevity of previous EBC products. The surfaces are left smooth and not scored, promoting better rotor compatibility and easier maintenance.
Designed to meet safety standards, Bluestuff NDX pads have achieved ECE R90 brake safety regulation approval, certifying their quality and performance for street use. They are easy on rotors, reducing wear and tear, and facilitate quick, confident releases during braking. These characteristics make them an excellent choice for enthusiasts seeking a balance between race-ready performance and street reliability. While they excel on well-maintained, modern caliper systems, some older street-based calipers with inherent drag may pose compatibility challenges, which is common across all high-performance pads in this category.
Note that these pads are not CARB approved and are intended for off-road and racing use, with Prop 65 compliance ensuring safety standards.
