Why do brake rotors have slots?

The slots machined into the braking surface help to vent gases and dust that are created during the braking process. This can help maintain consistent friction between the pad and rotor, especially during repeated hard stops.

What does the black coating on the rotor do?

The black electro-coating is a protective layer applied to the rotor surface. Its primary purpose is to prevent rust and corrosion, particularly on the non-friction areas of the rotor, helping to maintain its appearance.

Should I replace just one rotor or both?

For balanced braking performance and to ensure even wear, it's always recommended to replace brake rotors in pairs on the same axle. This means replacing both the left and right rear rotors at the same time.

This rotor features a black electro-coating that helps prevent rust and corrosion, especially in areas where your car might sit for a while.
