Key Features:

PowerStop Evolution Geomet Coated Rotors combine advanced materials and precise manufacturing to deliver exceptional performance and longevity. Key features include:

• Fully coated with genuine GEOMET 360 for outstanding rust and corrosion protection
• Manufactured to original equipment specifications for fitment, weight, vane count, and performance

• 100% dynamically balanced to reduce vibration and noise
• Direct bolt-on replacement requiring no modifications
• Weight and vane count matched to original equipment design for consistent cooling and durability
• Compatible with factory brake pads and hardware

Construction & Design:

These rotors are precision-engineered from high-quality cast iron to provide optimal strength and heat dissipation. The application of the genuine GEOMET 360 coating creates a thin, durable barrier that protects the rotor surface from rust and corrosion, significantly extending service life, especially in harsh weather conditions. The coating process does not affect the rotor’s braking surface or performance, maintaining the original friction characteristics and ensuring reliable stopping power.

Manufactured under strict quality control standards, the rotors maintain exacting tolerances for thickness and runout, which helps prevent brake judder and uneven pad wear, contributing to a smooth and quiet braking experience.
