EBC RP-1 Front Race Brake Pads

2015–2017 Dodge Viper 8.4L V10

Part #: DP81210RP1

Overview

The EBC RP-1 Front Race Brake Pads are engineered specifically for high-performance applications, delivering exceptional braking control and consistency for the 2015–2017 Dodge Viper equipped with the 8.4L V10 engine. Designed to meet the demanding requirements of over-servoed vehicles and Big Brake Kits, these pads provide a smooth, predictable pedal feel without the aggressive, snatchy bite often associated with standard race pads.

Ideal for track enthusiasts and serious drivers who require reliable stopping power under extreme conditions, the RP-1 pads maintain an ultra-stable friction coefficient of 0.45 and excellent thermal stability up to 750°C (1400°F). This ensures consistent braking performance even during prolonged high-speed runs or heavy braking scenarios.

Key Features

Engineered to deliver superior race-level performance with enhanced control and durability, the EBC RP-1 pads offer the following key benefits:

• Ultra-stable friction coefficient of 0.45 for consistent braking power
• Exceptional thermal control up to 750°C (1400°F) to resist fade
• Optimized for over-servoed brake systems and Big Brake Kits
• Smooth, controllable pedal feel without aggressive initial bite
• Reduced brake dust and rotor wear compared to conventional race pads
• Designed specifically for front axle applications on the Dodge Viper
• High-quality friction material formulated for track and high-performance street use

Construction & Design

The RP-1 brake pads feature a proprietary friction material blend developed by EBC’s racing division to withstand extreme heat and stress. This advanced compound balances aggressive braking performance with pedal smoothness, minimizing the harshness typical of race pads. The backing plates are precision-engineered to provide structural integrity and optimal pad-to-rotor contact, ensuring even wear and consistent performance lap after lap.

Manufactured with rigorous quality control standards, these pads are built to endure the rigors of competitive driving while maintaining reliability and safety on the street or track.
