Aluminum Ceramic Brake Rotors

The future is here.

Aluminum ceramic brake rotors. The eline drilled slotted brake rotors kit is a low budget kit but it is as good as a costly one. It includes a special zinc plated design to protect from corrosion. Carbon ceramic and carbon carbon brake rotors offer all the weight savings and benefits of aluminum but can withstand higher temperatures than steel. Aluminum brake rotors dissipate heat quickly but they also melt at a lower temperature than other options.

Hcm s ceramic alloy rotors come in at a claimed weight of 95g. Granted these materials also cost 10 times as much so aluminum may yet have a serious future in automotive performance and heavy vehicle applications. We like the potential of this proven rim brake technology coming to rotors that are 2 3 or less the weight of a traditional steel rotor. Aluminum is a favorite for motorcycles which weigh less and are easier on the rotors when braking than a heavy car truck or suv.

Soon however ceramic coated aluminum rotors may be a cost effective. In the real world though not every brake pad. They have been manufactured with multiple alloys in order to provide improved heat dissipation and performance. C sic rotors offer higher thermal conductivity and heat capacity in excess of conventional iron or titanium rotors of similar or even greater weight.

Lighter ceramic rotors certainly do exist although their high price mostly limits their application to expensive sports cars. Our product alumatrix brakes lightweight metal matrix composite brake discs that provide a highly uniform aluminum silicon carbide composite located only on the friction surface. The eline series brand is a complete kit that comes with 4 brake rotors and 8 ceramic brake pads. There s a right way and a wrong way to do anything and through the thick storm of relentless marketing hype that line can get a little blurred.

New lightweight aluminum brake discs with selectively placed ceramic enhancement. The acdelco 18a1324a advantage non coated front disc brake rotor is an excellent choice for those looking for brake rotors that won t break the bank. Wilwood s c sic rotors are made form a proprietary blend ceramic matrix composite material commonly known as carbon ceramic. They have been mill balanced for proper rotor function and come ready to install right out of the box.
