What is the main benefit of the slotted design on these EBC rotors?

The wide slots on these EBC 3GD Sport rotors help to vent hot gases and dust away from the braking surface. This action helps to keep the brakes cooler, which in turn reduces brake fade, especially during heavy use like towing or high-speed driving.

Are these rotors made in the USA?

EBC states that many of their rotors are British-made in their own UK foundry. While they do occasionally source rotors from approved overseas suppliers to complete their range, they emphasize their commitment to quality and testing for all rotors sold.

What brake pads are recommended for these rotors?

These EBC GD7281 rotors are designed to work with FMSI pad number D1047. It's always a good idea to pair quality rotors with compatible brake pads for optimal performance and longevity.

Product Details

When you're tackling a brake job on your 2005-2012 Ford Escape, especially if you do any towing or drive at higher speeds, you'll want rotors that can handle the heat. These EBC 3GD Sport slotted rotors are designed to help manage brake temperatures and keep your stopping power consistent.

These rotors are made from OE spec grey cast iron, the same material used on new vehicles. The key feature here is the slotting pattern. These wide slots help to vent hot gases and dust away from the braking surface, which reduces brake fade, particularly when you're putting your brakes to work. EBC specifies these rotors for domestic vehicles and includes an anodized black finish for protection. They are designed to work with FMSI D1047 brake pads.

This set includes front rotors for your Escape. They are vented and feature a 303mm diameter with 5 bolt holes, ensuring a direct fit for the specified models.
