What is the benefit of the drilled holes on this rotor?

The drilled holes help to vent hot gases and heat away from the rotor surface. This can lead to more consistent braking performance, especially under heavy use.

Why does this rotor have a black coating?

The black E-coating is applied to protect the rotor from rust and corrosion. It also means the rotor is cleaner to handle during installation, with less oil to wipe off compared to standard rotors.

Is this rotor sold individually or as a pair?

This part number is for a single (1) front left brake rotor. If you need to replace both front rotors, you will need to order two of these.

About this part

Product Details

This R1 Concepts drilled brake rotor is made from a solid cast iron construction, offering a good balance of stopping power and durability for your 1972-1979 Renault R15. The rotor features a black E-coating for corrosion resistance, helping it look good and perform reliably over time. Its drilled pattern is designed to help dissipate heat and gases, which can improve braking performance, especially during repeated stops.

The E-coating on this rotor not only protects against rust but also makes installation cleaner, as it prevents the typical oily residue found on many raw rotors. This means less cleanup before you mount your wheels. It's a solid option for anyone looking to replace worn front rotors on their R15 and wants a part that offers a bit more than a standard blank rotor.
