Product Description

The EBC UD1630 Ultimax2 brake pad set is designed as a direct OEM replacement for a range of Mercedes-Benz SUVs, delivering reliable everyday braking performance with improved comfort and durability.

It delivers stable, predictable braking response across a wide temperature range, making it a practical choice for SUVs like the GL, GLS, and GLE series used in everyday commuting and long-distance driving.
