About the StopTech Select Sport Cross-Drilled & Slotted Disc Brake Rotors Line

The StopTech Select Sport Cross-Drilled & Slotted Disc Brake Rotors line is designed to provide enhanced braking performance through improved rotor surface technology. The combination of cross-drilled holes and precision slots helps to dissipate heat more effectively and remove brake dust and gases, which can improve pad contact and reduce brake fade. This rotor line is vented to further aid in cooling, making it suitable for vehicles that require consistent braking under demanding conditions.

Detailed Product Description

This disc brake rotor features a vented design with straight vanes to optimize airflow and cooling. The rotor’s cross-drilled and slotted surface enhances braking efficiency by allowing gases and debris to escape, maintaining clean pad contact. With a center hole diameter of 3.406 inches (86.5 mm) and a mounting bolt hole circle diameter of 5.5 inches (139.7 mm), it is engineered for precise fitment on compatible Ford models. The rotor does not include ABS tone rings or bearings, so it is intended for vehicles with compatible existing components. The nominal thickness of 1.185 inches ensures durability and longevity, while the discard thickness of 1.122 inches indicates the minimum safe thickness for replacement.
