Detailed Product Description

This Power Stop disc brake rotor set is specifically designed for the front brakes of Ford Mustang vehicles. The vented rotor construction allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, reducing heat buildup during braking and helping to maintain consistent stopping power. The slotted and drilled surface pattern improves brake pad contact and helps evacuate gases, dust, and water, which can otherwise reduce braking performance.

The zinc plating on the rotors provides a protective layer against rust and corrosion, which is especially beneficial for vehicles exposed to moisture and road salt. With a nominal thickness of 30.00 mm and a discard thickness of 28.40 mm, these rotors meet strict specifications to ensure safe and effective braking. The 5-lug hole pattern with a 114.30 mm bolt circle diameter matches the Ford Mustang front hub assembly for straightforward installation.

Power Stop - Front Drilled, Slotted and Zinc Plated Brake Rotor Pair Line

The Power Stop - Front Drilled, Slotted and Zinc Plated Brake Rotor Pair product line focuses on delivering rotors that combine enhanced braking performance with corrosion resistance. This line is designed to meet the demands of drivers who require rotors that maintain consistent performance under various driving conditions while resisting rust.
