New ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ ED+ Extra Duty Brake Pads

For drivers who regularly tow, carry heavy loads, or run lifted trucks and Jeeps with oversized wheels and tyres, standard brake pads can often struggle to deliver the stopping power required. That’s where ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ ED+ Extra Duty brake pads come in.

Designed specifically for demanding applications, ED+ pads feature a high-friction compound that provides exceptional grip and braking performance when it matters most. Whether towing a trailer, hauling heavy equipment, or navigating challenging terrain, ED+ pads are engineered to cope with braking demands that can overwhelm a standard OE brake system.

ED+ pads offer a medium-plus service life, but their real focus is braking performance. Designed for drivers who tow, carry heavy loads, or run lifted trucks and Jeeps, ED+ delivers the high-friction stopping power needed when standard brake systems are pushed beyond their limits.

Made 100% in the UK ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ factory, ED+ pads are produced using aramid fibres with a small amount of steel fibre, which provides strong braking performance while remaining kinder to brake rotors and generating minimal brake dust.

ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ makes the worlds largest range of brake pads for cars, trucks and motorcycles.

We show you the ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ components that perfectly match your lifestyle

Welcome to ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµâ€™s ‘Suit Your Style’ blog series, where we match you up with the ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ upgrades that complement particular driving requirements, ensuring you get the ideal components for your vehicle.

In today’s blog, we’re showcasing our range of tough and rugged brake pads built with heavy loads and towing in mind.

With heavier, more capable vehicles, it’s crucial to ensure your stopping power is up to standards, and luckily, ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ has a range of pad upgrades that revolve around this ever-growing market.

Below are our top picks for towing/4x4s/trucks and the demanding lifestyles that come with them…

Extra Duty ED+

Brake pads for light trucks, Jeeps, and SUVs. These pads are super grippy, high-friction, and designed for the extra braking demands of towing, heavy loads, or trucks with lifted suspension and oversized tyres and wheels, where a standard ‘stock’ brake system can’t cope.

ED+ pads offer medium-plus lifetime, but what these drivers really want is fabulous brakes with stopping power that keeps them safe, and they’re not concerned about changing pads every 7–12,000 miles.

Greenstuff Elite

DP6000 Elite-series green pads from ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ are superb premium pads for SUVs and light trucks. They not only replace but also upgrade your stock pads, providing a more grippy, silent, smooth, and long-lasting brake setup. Carrying the prestigious Leaf Mark with the highest N rating, recognised for its superior environmental safety.

Yellowstuff

The first in a new range of ‘hybrid’ materials that can be safely and legally used on the world’s roads (being R90 approved), Yellowstuff is a high-friction, high-capability upgrade pad for various road and occassional track applications.

With its impressively broad skill set, Yellowstuff has been the flagship pad by ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ for over a decade and gives instant brake response, great feel and modulations with silky-smooth noise-free braking and was also improved in 2021 to be copper free and conform to all new legislations for the environment.

Expect strong, stable friction once bedded-in and very minimal rotor damage, whether used on road or track.

Bluestuff

A great all-round sport and race pad – just as comfortable on track as it is performing daily driving duties.

Bluestuff material exhibits a 0.52μ stable friction once bedded, stable up to a slightly higher 550℃/1000℃ than its sister compound Yellowstuff but with the benefit of a 30% longer lifespan.

New formula is copper free to conform to upcoming environmental legislations.

Availability

Available now. Please  to find your local ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ stockist and see a full list of applications.

Choosing brake pad upgrades for larger vehicles such as trucks can be difficult, but ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ is here to help

There’s a lot of choice when it comes to upgrading the braking components on your truck, but within the ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ range – one of the top brake manufacturers in the world – there are three great options specifically designed for this exact application.

All Three Options Feature:

  • 100% British-made brake pads
  • Copper-free to conform to new ECO laws and Prop 65
  • Shimmed, chamfered, and slotted for silent braking
  • ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµâ€™s Brake-In Coating that seats pads super-fast

Brake Pad Line-Up

 

Greenstuff Elite

An Aramid-fiber, reduced-dust compound, designed as an entry-level sport upgrade for light trucks and SUVs. Medium-plus lifespan, these are great brakes with minimal rotor wear – better than stock with less dust and no noise. Please for more details.

Yellowstuff Pads

Similar bite to the Elite, but with a higher heat threshold for drivers who might be pushing their vehicles a little harder in terms of load and speed. Please for more information on Yellowstuff pads.

ED+ Extra Duty Pads

If you have a truck running oversized wheels and tires, and feel your stock brakes are lacking in power after some upgrades, these will solve your problems. By ‘extra duty’, we don’t mean ‘extra life’, we mean ‘more braking power’. These pads have more bite than just about anything you will find, and provide powerful stopping power for oversized tire setups and lifted trucks, as well as trailing and towing machines. Please for a more detailed explanation on Extra Duty pads.

Whatever brake pads you choose, just make sure your rotors are in good condition before installation. If badly worn or grooved, bed-in times will be significantly extended and some noise whilst bedding into your worn rotors may occur.

Mary Hannah and Andy have spent three months tackling the gruelling continent

Adventure couple, Texan Mary Hannah ‘MH’ and Yorkshireman Andy, quit their day jobs back in 2018 to pursue their dreams of seeing the world. Since then, they’ve travelled to over 35 countries together in their trusty 2010 Land Rover Defender 110 (nicknamed ‘Tango’ thanks to its bright orange colour).

The duo’s latest mission saw them leaving Cape Town, South Africa, around three months ago, aiming to head north and ultimately reach Cairo, Egypt at the other side of the vast continent.

MH and Andy’s Land Rover benefits from ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµâ€™ ED+ front and rear brake pads, as well as GD discs up front, to help it tackle the infamously notorious and varying terrain that Africa offers.

They recently sent their latest update from Namibia – over 7500 miles north of where they started – which can be read below in their own words.

“Over the last three months, we’ve traversed over 7500 miles across South Africa, Lesotho, and the southern part of Namibia and are now making our way up the Namibian coast. The terrain has been harsh, with brutal corrugation, dust, and debris, putting Tango to the ultimate test. Amazingly, we haven’t had any significant breakdowns or issues with Tango, just normal wear and tear.â€
