Why are the holes drilled in this brake rotor?

The drilled holes in this R1 Concepts rotor are designed to help vent hot gases and heat away from the rotor surface. This can lead to more consistent braking, especially during repeated stops or heavier braking situations.

What is the black coating on the rotor?

The black coating is an electro-coating applied for corrosion resistance. It helps protect the rotor from rust and environmental damage, especially during storage and initial installation.

Do I need to buy two of these rotors for my car?

Yes, brake rotors are typically installed in pairs on an axle for balanced braking. This part number is for the front left rotor only, so you will need to order a second one for the front right side of your vehicle.

About this part

Product Details

This R1 Concepts drilled brake rotor features a black electro-coating for corrosion resistance, a practical choice for your 1991-1995 Volvo 740, 745, 780, 940, or 960. The drilled holes are designed to help vent gases and heat away from the rotor surface, which can lead to more consistent braking performance, especially under heavier use.

The rotor itself is constructed from a durable cast iron material, a standard for reliable braking components. Its specific design for the front left position ensures it works correctly with your vehicle's braking system. While it's a direct replacement for your original rotor, the drilled pattern offers an advantage over plain rotors by helping to keep temperatures down and preventing brake fade.

This rotor is sold individually, so be sure to order two for the front axle if you're replacing both sides. It's a solid option if you're looking for improved heat management in your braking system.
