How do the slots on these EBC rotors help?

The wide slots are designed to help clear brake dust, dirt, and debris away from the braking surface. This action also helps to vent hot gases, allowing the rotors to run cooler and reduce brake fade under demanding conditions.

What material are these EBC rotors made from?

These rotors are manufactured from OE spec grey cast iron, which is the same type of material used in original equipment production for new vehicles.

Are these rotors a direct replacement for my Jaguar X-Type?

Yes, these EBC GD981 rotors are designed as a direct fit for the front of the 2002-2008 Jaguar X-Type 2.5. They feature the correct vented design, bolt hole count, and diameter for proper installation.

About this part

Product Details

These EBC 3GD Series Sport Slotted Rotors are built from OE spec grey cast iron, the same material used in new car production. They are designed specifically for the front of your 2002-2008 Jaguar X-Type 2.5, featuring a vented design with 5 bolt holes and a 300mm diameter.

The wide slots machined into the rotor surface are a key feature here. They help to sweep away hot gases, dust, and debris that build up during braking. This improved airflow helps the brakes run cooler, which can reduce brake fade, especially under load or at higher speeds. The rotors are anodized for protection, with a black finish for domestic applications and gold for imports, though your Jaguar will receive the gold treatment.

These rotors are a solid option if you're looking for improved performance over standard equipment, whether for daily driving or more spirited use. They are designed to work with FMSI Pad No. D910.
