What is the benefit of a drilled brake rotor?

Drilled rotors have holes that help to vent gases and heat away from the braking surface. This can lead to more consistent braking performance, especially under heavy use, and can help prevent brake fade.

Does this rotor come with any hardware?

This product listing is for the brake rotor only. Installation hardware, such as lug nuts or brake pads, is typically sold separately.

How do I maintain the black coating on this rotor?

The black coating is designed to offer initial corrosion resistance. While it will wear off the braking surface during use, keeping the rotor clean and dry when possible will help maintain its appearance on the non-braking areas.

About this part

Product Details

This is a front left drilled black brake rotor from R1 Concepts, made to fit your 1970-1981 Buick Apollo. This rotor is designed to replace the original part on the driver's side of your front axle. Drilled rotors help to dissipate heat and gases more effectively than standard solid rotors, which can lead to improved braking performance, especially during repeated stops.

The black coating on this rotor isn't just for looks; it offers a layer of protection against rust and corrosion, helping to keep the rotor looking good and functioning well for longer. This rotor is a solid option if you're looking to replace worn-out factory rotors with something that offers a bit more in terms of heat management and appearance. It's a direct replacement, meaning it should install without needing any modifications to your existing brake system.
