R1 Concepts eLINE Series Drilled & Slotted Rotors are engineered for performance at a great value. Drilled and slotted rotors will grab more bite to the brake pads giving you shorter stopping distance especially in wet weather. The drilled holes will reduce the heat that builds on the rotor. The slots on the rotor removes brake and road debris and prevent pad glazing.
Features & Benefits:
Drilled holes will reduce the heat that builds on the rotor. Cross-drilled holes are also chamfered, which reduces the potential for cracking
Slots on the rotor removes brake and road debris and prevent pad glazing. The slots will grab more bite to the brake pads giving you shorter stopping distance especially in wet weather
Zinc Plated Black for rust protection on the rotor hub, vents, and edge
Engineered with premium G3000/G11H18 iron castings for strength, stability, and durability
Original Equipment (OE) vane configuration to ensure proper and maximum heat dissipation
CNC-machined to the tightest tolerances
100% precision mill-balanced for smoother stopping and zero vibration at any speed
Non-directional finish to promote faster break-in and smoother stops
Quality tested to ensure long-lasting performance
New in Box, Ready to Install, No Modifications Required
Installation Tips
Always replace Brake Pads and inspect Calipers and Brake Hoses when installing new rotors
Suspend the caliper from the suspension using a Caliper Hanger to prevent damage to the brake hose
After removing the old rotor, clean the hub face with a Wire Brush to remove rust buildup and apply Copper Anti Seize to prevent future buildup. Rust or debris on the hub can cause rotor runout and lead to wheel vibration
Apply Brake Lube to caliper pins, clips, the edges of the brake pad mounting tabs, and the back side of the brake pads to ensure noise free braking. DO NOT apply lube to the friction side of the brake pads
Use a Caliper Piston Compressor to retract the caliper piston(s) and make room for the new, thicker brake pads
Open the master cylinder reservoir during piston compression to prevent pressure buildup. Keep an eye on the Brake Fluid level to ensure it does not overflow
After the job is complete, pump the brake pedal several times to push the caliper piston back up against the pads to ensure proper brake function
