• Silver epoxy coating on the hat, outer edge, and vanes for superior corrosion resistance

Construction & Design:

PowerStop Semi Coated Rotors are crafted from high-quality cast iron to provide excellent heat dissipation and durability under demanding conditions. The partial silver epoxy coating is strategically applied to the rotor hat, outer edges, and cooling vanes—areas most susceptible to corrosion—helping to extend rotor life and maintain a clean, attractive appearance behind wheels.

The rotors are precision machined to meet or exceed original equipment standards, ensuring consistent thickness and minimal runout. This attention to detail reduces brake judder and noise, delivering a smooth and confident braking experience every time you press the pedal.

The hub/rotor assembly includes sealed bearing races for simplified installation, though bearings themselves are not included and should be reused or replaced as needed. Matching original equipment weight and vane count guarantees proper fitment and compatibility with factory brake components.
