ORANGESTUFF COMPOUND
Technical Description
The EBC Orangestuff Brake Pads are a full race brake compound developed for high-temperature endurance applications. They are designed to deliver extremely high and stable friction, around 0.60, across a very wide thermal range, remaining consistent even under sustained heavy braking and heat soak conditions.
Unlike dual-purpose compounds, Orangestuff pads are optimized for operation at elevated temperatures, with relatively modest cold performance and a progressively increasing bite as heat builds. This makes them particularly suited to endurance racing, heavier high-performance vehicles, and situations where fade resistance and long-term thermal stability are more critical than immediate cold response.
The compound uses a reinforced structure with high mechanical strength and features such as V-grooves for debris management and gas evacuation, helping maintain consistent contact under extreme conditions. These pads are strictly intended for track use and are generally not approved for road driving.
