S3KR1217

Overview:

The EBC S3 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit offers an entry-level brake upgrade solution designed specifically for trucks and SUVs. This kit combines reliable S3 brake pads with high-quality GD slotted and dimpled rotors, providing improved braking performance and durability for daily driving and light towing applications.

Ideal for drivers seeking enhanced stopping power and rotor longevity without the complexity or expense of high-performance race components, this kit delivers consistent, dependable braking with added resistance to heat and corrosion.

Whether you are replacing worn factory components or upgrading your vehicle’s braking system, the EBC S3 kit ensures improved brake feel and reduced fade under normal driving conditions.

Key Features:

This brake kit is engineered to enhance your vehicle’s braking efficiency and durability through advanced rotor and pad design.

• S3 Brake Pads: Designed as an entry-level upgrade, these pads offer reliable stopping power and consistent performance for trucks and SUVs.
• GD Slotted and Dimpled Rotors: Featuring wide slots and blind drilled dimples that effectively disperse gases, dirt, debris, and carbon deposits to maintain optimal brake contact and reduce fade.
• Blind Holes: Prevent rotor cracking by reducing stress concentrations during heavy braking.
• Thermic Black Coating: Provides maximum corrosion resistance to extend rotor life and maintain appearance.
• High-Temperature Material: Rotor material is rated to withstand temperatures up to approximately 800–900°C, ensuring durability under demanding conditions.
• Runout Inspected: Each rotor is carefully inspected to minimize runout for smooth braking and reduced vibration.
• Sold in Pairs: Suitable for front or rear axle fitment, allowing for complete axle replacement.

Construction & Design:

The GD rotors in this kit are engineered with a solid rear design featuring five bolt holes, a diameter of 342mm, a height of 77mm, thickness of 14mm, and a center hole diameter of 72mm. The combination of slotted grooves and blind drilled dimples enhances heat dissipation and debris clearance, which helps maintain consistent braking performance and reduces the risk of rotor warping or cracking.

The thermic black coating applied to the rotors not only protects against rust and corrosion but also contributes to longer service life, especially in harsh weather conditions or environments prone to moisture and road salt.

Installation & Fitment:

This kit is designed for straightforward installation using existing factory mounting points on compatible trucks and SUVs. The rotors and pads fit the rear axle and require no special modifications, cutting, or tuning for proper fitment and operation.

• Rear axle fitment
• Solid rotor design with 5 bolt holes
• Direct bolt-on replacement for compatible vehicles
• No cutting, drilling, or special tuning required

What's Included:

• Pair of EBC S3 brake pads
• Pair of EBC GD slotted and dimpled brake rotors with thermic black coating

Ideal For:

• Truck and SUV owners seeking a reliable, entry-level brake upgrade
• Daily drivers requiring improved brake performance and durability
• Drivers looking for rotors with enhanced heat dissipation and corrosion resistance
• Those who want a cost-effective brake solution without excessive brake dust
