Detailed Product Description

The StopTech Sport Cross-Drilled & Slotted Disc Brake Rotors feature a vented design with straight vanes that promote efficient airflow to cool the rotor during braking. The cross-drilled and slotted surface pattern helps to evacuate gases, dust, and water, improving pad bite and reducing brake fade. The rotor’s hat is coated to protect against rust and corrosion, ensuring durability over time. With a floating disc mounting system and three miscellaneous holes, this rotor accommodates thermal expansion and reduces the risk of warping under high-stress conditions. The rotor measures 11.89 inches (302 mm) in diameter with a nominal thickness of 1.102 inches (28 mm), and a discard thickness of 0.984 inches (25 mm), providing a balance between performance and longevity.
