Drivers who participate in “Track Days” or “High Performance Driving Events” (HPDE) know the value of having brakes that are up to the task of track use. High Carbon metallurgy combined with cross-drilled holes improves cooling – especially in high speed, high temperature situations where you need it most. The slots provide a clean contact patch between the pad and the rotor for improved coefficient of friction.
Features & Benefits:
High Carbon metallurgy to withstand the abuse of the race track
Drill holes to keep brake temperatures down
Slots to wipe away dust and debris for superior pad bite
Precision machined and mill balanced for vibration-free braking
Zinc plating to resist rust on the hat and outer edge of the brake rotor
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
