GCX Brake Rotors are specifically engineered to match OE performance and provide superior protection from rust and corrosion. Coated with Centric's advanced RS200 finish on all non-mating surfaces, GCX premium rotors deliver extended life and great looks over the life of the vehicle.
Features & Benefits:
Zinc-Aluminum rich coating for the best corrosion resistance
Optimal surface finish for consistent and confident braking from the first stop
OE vane design and plate thickness for heat capacity and strength
Low initial lateral run-out and disc thickness variation for smooth, vibration free stopping
Precision balanced for vibration free performance
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
