What is the benefit of drilled brake rotors?

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

Does this rotor come with any hardware?

This product listing is for the brake rotor only. Any necessary installation hardware, such as lug nuts or brake pads, would need to be purchased separately.

What is the black finish on the rotor for?

The black finish on this rotor is primarily for corrosion resistance, helping to prevent rust and maintain the rotor's appearance over time. It also contributes to the overall look of the braking system.

About this part

Product Details

When you're looking to give your 1979-1985 Volkswagen Type 2 a solid braking upgrade, this front left drilled brake rotor from R1 Concepts is a well-built option. These rotors are designed to replace your stock ones directly, making the installation straightforward for anyone comfortable working on their vehicle's brakes.

The drilled pattern on this rotor helps to dissipate heat and gasses that build up during braking. This means you'll get more consistent stopping power, especially when you're putting your brakes to work on longer descents or during spirited driving. The black finish isn't just for looks; it also offers some protection against rust and corrosion, helping your new rotors stay looking good and performing well for longer.

This rotor is specifically for the front left side of your Type 2. Make sure you order the correct side for your vehicle to ensure proper braking performance.
