What makes this rotor alloy special?

The rotor is made from a proprietary iron alloy that Wilwood developed to resist extreme temperatures. This formulation is derived from technology used in their military spec rotors, aiming to prevent distortion, warping, and cracking under heavy use.

What is the benefit of the curved vane design?

The curved vane design, combined with the asymmetrical slot pattern, helps to improve airflow through the rotor. This increases cooling capacity, which is crucial for preventing brake fade during demanding track conditions and extends the rotor's service life.

Is this rotor suitable for daily driving?

While built for extreme conditions, these rotors can be used for daily driving. However, their design is optimized for high-heat performance found in track or competition settings, and they may wear differently than standard street rotors.

Product Details

Wilwood's GT 48 Curved Vane rotor is built from a proprietary iron alloy, a material developed to handle extreme temperatures without distorting, warping, or cracking. This alloy is based on technology used in Wilwood's extreme duty military spec rotors, meaning it's made to take a serious beating. The rotor features Wilwood's GT Series asymmetrical face slot pattern, which helps clear dust and gas for consistent braking, and it's dynamically balanced for smooth, vibration-free performance at any speed. These rotors offer excellent cooling and a long service life, making them a solid choice for demanding track use.

With a diameter of 11.75 inches and a thickness of 1.21 inches, this rotor is designed for specific applications where high performance braking is essential. The 8 on 7.00 inch bolt pattern is a key detail for ensuring it fits your setup correctly. If you're looking for rotors that can stand up to the heat and stress of short track or road course competition, these are built for that kind of duty.
