Product Description

SR-11 is a state-of-the-art endurance race compound from EBC Racing that employs sintered friction technology to take cast-iron brake performance to the next level. SR-11 has an ultra-wide temperature working range of 0 – 925°C with a near perfectly flat friction profile of 0.5 mu throughout. SR-11 is a medium-torque material targeted at applications where a more progressive brake response is desirable, such as vehicles with servo-assistance, non-aero racing cars or rear axle fitment.

SR-11 boasts exceptionally low pad wear, yet unlike some other sintered brake pads on the market, the remarkable reality is that SR-11 also exhibits virtually zero brake rotor wear. SR-11 has been developed and independently tested for use in LM GTE class motorsport and has such low wear it could feasibly complete the 24hrs of Le Mans without a single pad or rotor change. As such, SR-11 is marketed as an endurance grade product, however, SR-11’s very stable performance from cold makes it highly suitable for use in any type of motorsport where cars run a cast-iron brake rotor, including sprint race, circuit racing, Time Attack, rallying, Hillclimb and serious trackday use.

Whilst SR-11’s high initial cost requires a significant up-front investment, the cost-per-racing-mile of EBC’s sintered pads is considerably lower than virtually any other brake pad on sale today, thanks to SR-11’s extraordinary pad and rotor life. Furthermore, whereas many semi-metallic or organic race pads ‘dull off’ after their first heat cycle, SR-11 experiences zero degradation between sessions meaning the same set of pads can provide between 20-60 hours of consistent performance at full racing speed. It’s not uncommon for 1 set of SR-11 brake pads to last an entire racing season, with zero drop-off in performance from the day they’re installed till they’re worn right down to the backplate.

Being a sintered metal pad SR-11 also possesses ultra-low compressibility, resulting in a very firm pedal with an unrivalled pedal feel. This gives the driver absolute control during each and every braking zone, with even the slightest change in pedal force instantly translating to a proportionate change in torque output.

Despite SR-11 being developed for use at the highest levels of motorsport, somewhat surprisingly SR-11 also has good street manors, with full brake effect from cold and many drivers reporting little-to-no noise with minimal brake dust. This is in stark contrast to most other race pads which squeal loudly at any speed and pedal pressure. Unfortunately, however, due to SR-11’s focus on motorsport use, this material has not been tested to ECE R90 standards and therefore is not legal for use on public roads in Australia (although customers in non-R90 regulated markets could conceivably run SR-11 on the road with excellent results).

Another benefit to SR-11, and a characteristic common to all sintered friction materials, is it has effectively no bedding-in period; requiring only a couple of laps at 80% racing speed to ensure the pads are mated up to the brake rotor. This is because sintered friction materials contain no volatiles that could burn, de-gas and lead to ‘green fade’, making SR-11 a true ‘plug n play’ motorsport pad.

SR-11’s extreme fade resistance, unrivalled pedal modulation and huge wear life mean EBC Racing’s sintered endurance race pads really are the Holy Grail for motorsport teams and drivers seeking the pinnacle of braking performance. Quite simply, EBC Racing’s new sintered pad materials are achieving levels of performance previously thought to be impossible on a cast-iron brake rotor.

NOTE: SR-11’s sister material, SR-21, has a higher friction coefficient of 0.6 for applications where high torque output is desirable, such as vehicles without any servo-assistance, high aero loads or front axle fitment.
