Construction & Design

These rotors are crafted from high-quality cast iron, chosen for its excellent thermal conductivity and wear resistance. The semi-coated design features a silver epoxy finish applied strategically to the rotor hat, outer edge, and cooling vanes—areas most vulnerable to rust and corrosion. This coating not only extends the rotor’s lifespan but also helps maintain a clean, corrosion-free look that complements modern wheel designs.

The rotor’s vane count and overall weight are engineered to mirror the original equipment specifications, ensuring balanced braking performance and compatibility with the Jeep Wrangler’s front braking system. This attention to detail helps prevent issues such as uneven wear or vibration, delivering smooth and consistent stopping power.
