EBC Brakes is a privately owned company that was founded in the United Kingdom. It is a world leader in the manufacture of brake components. EBC commenced developing the world's first aftermarket range of products in the early 80's. After a successful launch in Europe, EBC began its expansion into the USA market in the mid-1980s.

It began expanding rapidly in the automotive industry, and now EBC Brakes has become a world leader in sports, high-performance, and race brake pads and rotors with a huge range of products. In recent times, a new ground-breaking material was launched by EBC. The eco-friendly Ultimax 2 brake friction material that completely eliminates all sulfides and heavy metals from rotors. This is an enviro-friendly material that will once again prove that EBC cares not just for the auto enthusiasts who it had been serving but for the environment as well.

Through the years EBC has continued to grow and make innovations that benefit auto enthusiasts all over the world. EBC manufactures all its motorcycle brake rotors in the United Kingdom while the manufacturing of its brake pads are done in its own factories in the UK and US. EBC became synonymous to world-class brake system.

Warranty Information

Warranty is for replacement of similar product or refund of purchase value only excluding all labour and ancillary charges such as vehicle towing, fitting, inconvenience, purchasing of other manufacturers products and is good for a period of twelve months from date of purchase or 10,000 miles of highway use.

There is absolutely no warranty on any EBC product for race use. Warranty does not cover brake noise or normal wear and tear. Some brake pad systems cause pads to wear faster than others.

Automotive Disc Brake Rotors. Warranty is for replacement of similar product or refund of purchase value only excluding all labour and ancillary charges such as vehicle towing, fitting, inconvenience, purchasing of other manufacturers products and is valid for a period of six months from date of purchase or 10,000 miles of highway use. Warranty is invalid if product is used for racing, rally, drifting, trackday experience driving, or any other form of competition. There is absolutely no warranty on any EBC product for race use. Drivers/users must assess the performance and durability of EBC Brakes products themselves if any EBC product is to be used in racing.

No warranty is offered for brake vibration suffered due to uneven rotor thickness wear after incorrect installation of brake rotors. It is commonly known in the brake rotor business that accurate mounting and checking of runout on brake rotors is paramount at installation and in spite of necessary warnings many mechanics still see fit to ignore this warning and make no effort whatsoever to check rotor runout. This leads to brake vibration in the 3-5,000 miles lifetime period and is not a warrantable condition. The solution for vibration at this stage is to have the rotors turned or replaced and to thoroughly clean the mounting flange on the vehicle and carefully check for runout before returning the vehicle to service use.
