What is the benefit of the slotted rotor design?

The wide slots on these rotors help to sweep away dirt, dust, and brake pad material from the braking surface. This action helps keep the rotor clean and allows for better cooling, which can reduce brake fade during heavy use.

Are these rotors made in the USA?

EBC manufactures many of their rotors in their own UK foundry. While they do source some parts from approved overseas suppliers to complete their range, they emphasize rigorous testing and quality control for all rotors sold.

What brake pads are recommended for these rotors?

These EBC GD Sport Slotted Rotors are designed for use with FMSI pad number D1508. It's always a good idea to check the manufacturer's recommendations for compatible brake pads to ensure optimal performance.

Product Details

EBC is known for making solid brake components, and these GD Sport Slotted Rotors are a great example of their work. If you're driving a 2011-2019 Ford Explorer, especially the 2.0 Turbo 2WD model, these front rotors are built to handle the demands of your vehicle. They feature a vented design with wide slots that help clear out dirt, dust, and debris, which in turn helps your brakes run cooler. This improved cooling can make a notable difference in reducing brake fade, particularly when you're carrying loads or driving at higher speeds.

These rotors are constructed from OE spec grey cast iron, the same material used in new car production. EBC manufactures many of their rotors in their own UK foundry, ensuring a high level of control over the casting process. Even rotors sourced from approved overseas suppliers are rigorously tested for material composition, strength, and hardness before they are approved for sale. The anodized finish, black for domestic applications like your Explorer, offers protection and looks sharp behind the wheel.

This set is designed for the front axle and uses FMSI pad number D1508. The rotors measure 325mm in diameter with a 30mm thickness and are vented for optimal performance. If you're looking for an improved braking experience for your Explorer, especially for towing or spirited driving, these slotted rotors are a solid option.
