What is the benefit of drilled brake rotors?

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

Does this rotor come with hardware?

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

How should I care for this black coated rotor?

The black coating provides initial protection against rust. After installation, the brake pads will wear through the coating on the friction surface. It's good practice to keep the rotors clean from excessive dirt and road salt to maintain their appearance and performance.

About this part

Product Details

This order includes one R1 Concepts 623-47009R front right drilled brake rotor. This rotor is designed to replace the original on your 1978-1990 Buick Electra, LeSabre, or Roadmaster. The drilled holes help to vent gases and heat away from the braking surface, which can lead to more consistent stopping power, especially during repeated hard braking.

The black coating on this rotor isn't just for looks; it offers some protection against rust and corrosion, particularly during storage or initial installation before the brake pads fully seat. While it's a direct replacement for your factory rotor, the drilled pattern is an updated design that can offer a noticeable improvement in brake performance over a standard, solid rotor. This makes it a solid option if you're looking to get a bit more out of your braking system.
