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

The wide slots on these EBC rotors help to sweep away brake dust, dirt, and gas that can accumulate during braking. This process helps to keep the rotor surface cleaner and allows the brakes to run cooler, which can improve performance and reduce brake fade.

Are these rotors made in the USA?

EBC states that many of their rotors, including a majority of designs specific to the USA market, are British-made in their own UK foundry. They emphasize that they use OE spec grey cast iron and test their parts rigorously.

What brake pads are recommended for these rotors?

These EBC GD Sport front rotors are designed to be used with FMSI D679 brake pads. It's always a good idea to check the manufacturer's recommendations for optimal performance and compatibility.

About this part

Product Details

If you're towing with your 1997-1999 Ford F-150, especially the 4.2L 2WD model with rear wheel ABS, keeping your brakes performing their best is key. These EBC GD Sport slotted rotors are designed to help manage heat and keep your braking zone clear.

These rotors are made from OE spec grey cast iron, the same material used in new car production. The wide slots cut into the rotor surface are there to help sweep away dirt, dust, and gas that can build up during braking. This helps the brakes run cooler, which can reduce brake fade, particularly when you're carrying a load or driving at higher speeds. EBC specifies that many of their rotors, including a majority of designs for the USA market, are British-made in their own foundry, ensuring a high standard of production.

For domestic applications like your F-150, these rotors come with a black anodized finish for protection. They are designed to work with FMSI D679 brake pads and are a vented, solid option for the front of your truck.
