Why You Should Consider Plain Coated Rotors Over Drilled and Slotted

April 01, 2025,

In our blog we already compared different types of rotors (plain vs coated vs drilled and slotted), but got quite a few questions like "Should I buy the most expensive drilled and slotted". Let's compare one more time, but in this article we will highlight why you should not get drilled and slotted rotors.Read More

Heat Dissipation and Cooling Efficiency in Brake Rotors

February 01, 2025,

Brake rotors rely on friction to slow a vehicle, converting kinetic energy into thermal energy. However, excessive heat buildup can reduce braking efficiency, cause material degradation, and even lead to brake fade—a dangerous condition where braking power diminishes under prolonged use. Understanding how brake rotors dissipate heat and the factors that influence their cooling efficiency is essential for optimizing braking systems, particularly in high-performance or heavy-duty applications.Read More
