Specially designed, directional slots remove gasses from in between the brake pad and the friction surface of the rotor. By removing these gasses temperatures drop and brake performance increases.

Cross-Drilled & Slotted Brake Rotor

The addition of cross-drilling and slotted rotor is to increases performance by pulling more gas and heat away from the friction contact zone. All Rotorworks cross-drilled rotors feature counter-sinkholes that reduce stress risers and fractures.

The natural enemy of braking performance is heat. When temperature levels reach critical levels, a thin layer of gasses actually prevent the brake pads from making complete contact with the rotor friction surface. The addition of cross-drilled & slotted rotors is  to promote the evacuation of these gasses and improve stopping performance and pedal feel.

All Rotorworks performance rotors are made to exacting standards by the worlds leading brake manufacturers. Each part is then analyzed for its specific application and design. Our engineers then determine the optimal drilling & slotting pattern to maximize stopping power. These patterns are then cut into the rotor using todays most advanced CNC machines. This level of quality control ensures that each Rotorworks Performance rotor will perform to the highest levels every time under all driving conditions
