DFC Euro 5000 Ceramic Brake Pads

DFC’s 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are a direct OEM replacement for many European applications, but we noticed an opportunity to improve upon the OEM design. The issue with European applications is that the OEM brake pads tend to leave the wheels incredibly dusty. However, DFC’s innovative design helps to reduce the amount of brake dust that is produced, keeping your wheels looking clean and new. That’s why we created the DFC Euro 5000 Ceramic Brake Pads, your go to option for European applications.

DFC Presents: Dino Puts the Ultimate Duty Performance Pads to the Test

Those with lifted trucks, trucks with large tires (35’s or 38’s), or off-road vehicles will understand: you sometimes lose performance and sensitivity because there is added pressure on the braking system. 

DFC Ultimate Duty Performance Brake Pads solve this challenge in a number of ways:

• They provide high performance braking at low speeds (like when you’re rock crawling)

• They have a high coefficient of friction from dead cold, all the way to the highest of temperatures

• They provide better brake balance and feel

These are only a few of the reasons that make the Ultimate Duty Performance Brake Pads a baaaaaad MOFO (Maximum Operating Friction for Off-Roading). Click the video above to see how these Pads perform on a Jeep Gladiator!

Co-Founder Dino Crescentini highlights the Ultimate Duty Pads

At DFC, we pride ourselves on offering several specialty formulas. 

One of those, of course, is the Ultimate Duty Pads. Specially designed for lifted trucks, or large trucks with big wheels and tires, they perform exceptionally well during off-roading or towing.

In the video below, Co-Founder Dino Crescentini, highlights some of the signature features and applications for our Ultimate Duty Pads. Click the image below to view the video.

Our High Performance formulation provides additional benefits, like:

  • Extremely high torque with aggressive initial bite 
  • Excellent friction stability and consistency
  • Outstanding modulation, threshold control, and release characteristic

It’s important to remember that large or lifted trucks typically come with stock brake systems. Oftentimes, those stock brake systems simply cannot handle the excess weight that comes with large tires and wheels. This likely means that stock brakes will wear out a lot faster due to the additional stress on the brake system.

The technology for the Ultimate Duty Performance Pads was developed in Germany. It’s a technology that combines a sports car formula with a Class A vehicle formula.

If you’re trailering or have a lifted truck with big wheels and tires, these are the brakes that you want…and need.
