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

The progressively angled slots on these EBC Ultimax rotors help to pull in cooler air, which keeps the brakes operating at a more optimal temperature. They also help to sweep away brake dust and debris from the pad surface, maintaining consistent grip.

Are these rotors noisy like other slotted rotors?

EBC designed these Ultimax slotted rotors to offer the performance benefits of slots without the excessive air noise often associated with them. The specific angle of the slots is intended for quieter operation.

What other parts are typically needed when replacing brake rotors?

When replacing your brake rotors, it's a good time to also replace your brake pads. You may also need new brake hardware clips and it's recommended to bleed your brake system with fresh brake fluid.

About this part

Product Details

When you're looking to replace the front brake rotors on your 2012-2018 Audi A6 Quattro, this set from EBC is a solid option. These are vented rotors, meaning they have internal passages to help dissipate heat, which is crucial for maintaining braking performance, especially during spirited driving or repeated stops. The key feature here is the unique slotting pattern on the braking surface.

Unlike some aggressively slotted rotors that can create extra noise, EBC's Ultimax rotors use progressively angled slots. This design helps pull in cooler air to keep the rotors and pads at a more optimal temperature, preventing brake fade. The slots also serve a practical purpose by helping to sweep away brake dust and debris from the pad surface. This not only helps maintain consistent pad grip but can also contribute to longer pad life and cleaner wheels.

This set includes the front rotors, designed to be a direct fit for your vehicle. They are built to work with FMSI pad number D1549, and the dimensions are 356mm in diameter, 34mm thick, with a 68mm center bore. This is a well-built replacement that offers improved cooling and dust clearing over standard OE rotors.
