Detailed Product Description

This Centric rotor features a vented design that enhances heat dissipation during braking, reducing the likelihood of brake fade. The floating mounting type allows for slight movement to accommodate thermal expansion, improving rotor longevity. With a nominal thickness of 1.035 inches and a discard thickness of 0.957 inches, this rotor provides a clear service life indicator. The coated hat finish protects against rust and corrosion, which is especially important for vehicles exposed to moisture and road salt. The smooth surface ensures even brake pad wear and consistent stopping power.
