Key Features:
StopTech’s Drilled Sport Rotor incorporates advanced technology and materials to provide superior braking performance and durability. Key features include:
- Cross-drilled surface for improved heat and brake dust dispersal
- Enhanced pad bite for better wet and dry braking performance
- Black e-coating for corrosion resistance and long-lasting appearance
- High carbon metallurgy for quieter operation and increased crack resistance
- Optimized for use with higher friction, European-style brake pad compounds
- Added molybdenum and chromium to resist rotor cracking under stress
- One-piece direct replacement design for easy installation with factory calipers
- Improved aesthetics with drilled pattern visible behind wheels
Construction & Design:
Crafted from premium high carbon cast iron, the StopTech Drilled Sport Rotor is engineered to withstand the rigors of aggressive driving while maintaining structural integrity. The advanced metallurgy reduces the likelihood of cracking and warping, common issues with lesser rotors under high thermal stress. The black e-coating not only enhances corrosion resistance but also provides a sleek, durable finish that complements the sporty look of the Subaru BRZ.
The rotor’s drilled holes are strategically placed to maximize heat dissipation and brake dust evacuation, which helps maintain consistent pad contact and braking performance. This design also prevents glazing of the brake pads, ensuring reliable stopping power over extended use.
Performance & Sound
The combination of high carbon metallurgy and drilled design results in quieter brake operation with significantly reduced pad squeal, especially when paired with high-performance European-style brake pads. Drivers will notice improved pedal feel and enhanced bite, contributing to shorter stopping distances and greater confidence behind the wheel.
