What is the benefit of the slotting on these rotors?

The slots on these Stoptech rotors help to disperse heat, brake dust, and gases that build up during braking. This prevents pad glazing and leads to improved initial bite and more consistent performance in both wet and dry conditions.

Does this rotor come with a coating for protection?

Yes, these rotors feature a black e-coating on the non-friction surfaces. This coating provides protection against corrosion, helping to maintain the rotor's appearance and integrity over time.

What is the advantage of the high-carbon metallurgy?

The high-carbon metallurgy used in these rotors (in most applications) offers better resistance to cracking caused by thermal stress. It also contributes to quieter operation, especially when paired with certain brake pad compounds.

Product Details

You're getting a single Stoptech Slotted Sport Brake Rotor with this part number. This isn't just a basic replacement disc; it's a one-piece rotor designed to work with your factory brake system and calipers, offering a noticeable step up in performance and looks. The black e-coating on the non-friction surfaces helps keep corrosion at bay, so it'll look good behind your wheels for a long time.

The real magic is in the slotting and the material. The slots are there to help clear out heat, brake dust, and gases that build up during hard braking. This helps prevent the brake pads from glazing over, which means you get a more consistent and stronger grip, especially when things get wet or you're braking hard. Stoptech uses high-carbon metallurgy in most applications, which not only makes the rotor more resistant to cracking from heat stress but also helps keep things quieter by reducing pad squeal, particularly with European-style brake pads.

This rotor is a direct OE replacement, meaning it's made to fit right without any modifications. It's a solid option if you're looking to improve your braking feel and performance, especially if you drive your Acura MDX, Honda Odyssey, or Honda Pilot in conditions that put more demand on your brakes.
