Product type
Drilled brake rotors are a type of brake disc designed to improve braking performance by enhancing heat dissipation and reducing brake fade. They are typically made from cast iron or carbon composite materials, featuring a series of drilled holes that allow for better airflow and moisture evacuation. This design helps maintain optimal braking efficiency, especially under heavy use or in high-performance applications.
| Material | Cast iron or carbon composite |
| Diameter range | 240 mm to 400 mm |
| Thickness range | 20 mm to 30 mm |
| Weight range | 3 kg to 8 kg |
| Drilled hole pattern | Varies by manufacturer |
When selecting drilled brake rotors, consider the specific vehicle make and model to ensure compatibility. It's important to specify the desired material, diameter, and thickness based on your driving needs. Additionally, inquire about the drilled hole pattern and any performance certifications that may be relevant, especially for racing applications. Quantities can vary based on whether you are replacing a single rotor or multiple rotors at once.
