At first glance, you can see they're something special. ATE PremiumOne Disc
Brake Rotors have a number of features that set them apart from the ordinary.
They offer real advantages and benefits to brake technicians and their customers:
- Patented RotorLife wear indicator Helps technicians and vehicle owners gauge
rotor thickness at a glance, and notice when they are due for replacement.
- The wear indicator's interlaced elliptical grooves are machined into the
rotor face at complimentary angles. Groove design enhances dissipation of
heat and gases to reduce brake fade, extend pad life, and looks great with
cast spoke wheels.
- The MetaCote protective coating formulation is cured at approximately 572°F.
No grease or oil to remove. Helps protect against road salt, brake fluid and
other corrosives - sheds water and dirt
for clean appearance behind cast spoke wheels. Reduction in overall installation
time.
- Application specific design is engineered to tighter tolerances than rotors
that take a "one size fits all" approach. Fits and performs like
or better than the original equipment it replaces - provides added value and
convenience for brake technicians and their customers. No machining needed.
Installation Tips - Always replace Brake Pads and inspect Calipers and Brake Hoses when installing new rotors
- Suspend the caliper from the suspension using a Caliper Hanger to prevent damage to the brake hose
- After removing the old rotor, clean the hub face with a Wire Brush to remove rust buildup and apply Copper Anti Seize to prevent future buildup. Rust or debris on the hub can cause rotor runout and lead to wheel vibration
- Apply Brake Lube to caliper pins, clips, the edges of the brake pad mounting tabs, and the back side of the brake pads to ensure noise free braking. DO NOT apply lube to the friction side of the brake pads
- Use a Caliper Piston Compressor to retract the caliper piston(s) and make room for the new, thicker brake pads
- Open the master cylinder reservoir during piston compression to prevent pressure buildup. Keep an eye on the Brake Fluid level to ensure it does not overflow
- After the job is complete, pump the brake pedal several times to push the caliper piston back up against the pads to ensure proper brake function
