- Fully floating 2-piece rotor that allows outer ring to expand freely in response to heat. This reduces stress which in turn extends rotor life and reduces the tendency for rotor cracking during extreme use.
- Drive bobbins machined from a single piece of stainless steel giving maximum strength and corrosion resistance. Stainless bobbins reduce the requirement for regular disc maintenance and ensures the outer ring continues to float freely even when used on the public road with corrosive salts and other road grime.
- Each bobbin assembly features an anti-rattle spring clip ensuring silent operation when driving on the public highway
- Rotor rings feature 48 directional internal curved vanes for improved rotor coolin
- Friction rings are cast from high carbon G3500 alloy giving excellent wear properties and improved thermal capacity. All EBC disc rings are cast using the ‘centre split’ casting method, ensuring a balanced casting that will not distort under high heat, an issue common with cheaper ‘moulded out’ castings.
- Unique Swept Groove slot design for effective evacuation of braking dust and gasses whilst ensuring good initial ‘bite’ on brake apply
- Replacement disc rings for EBC floating rotors are significantly less expensive than our major competitors.

Benefits of aligning discs with a Pro Cut lathe EVEN FROM FIRST INSTALL
Even when fitting NEW discs or rotors there can be runout from first install due to hub and vehicle chassis alignment tolerances and the perfect way to guarantee smooth braking from first install is to have even your NEW rotors skimmed. Because the rotors are new this will only take the smallest amount of material from the disc……a maximum of 5 thousandths of an inch and will not affect disc or rotor service life.
What a skim over from new with a Pro Cut lathe will do is:
- Perfectly align your discs or rotors to your car
- Ensure smooth and perfect braking from first pedal
- Remove zinc from the braking area accelerating bed in and brake efficiency
- Prevent DTV and brake vibration occurring for many thousands of miles
EBC Brakes recommends, endorses and approves Pro Cut brake lathes and their use not just as a solution for brake vibration but as a means of perfecting rotor alignment from new install.
