EuroStop Premium
The Euro-Stop™ brake rotors are for those consumers seeking OEM level quality for a lot less than the cost from the new car dealer. The Euro-Stop™ rotors are engineered to meet the strict European ECE-R90 standards ensuring OEM performance and safety. ECE-R90 is required for all replacement brake disc and linings sold throughout the European Union.

Features:
  • Coated using genuine Geomet for optimum anti-corrosion protection
  • Machined to OES specifications for quiet, smooth braking
  • Cast using High Carbon metallurgy, providing the highest coefficient of friction for increased performance, optimizing thermal conductivity for resistance to thermal distortion and cracking, & improving damping coefficient to reduce squeal.

What is ECE-R90?

ECE-R90 is the European regulatory standard for the braking industry. The European regulation requires testing to ensure that braking components match OEM fitment and function.

ECE-R90 Includes the following:

  • Testing benchmark against OE performance
  • Every part number must be certified
  • Part testing done for the vehicle the part fits

ECE-R90 Brake Rotor Testing

  • Dimensionally correct
  • Machining tolerances
  • Friction characteristics / stopping ability
  • Thermal Fatigue testing
  • High load testing
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
