 At SP Performance, we are serious about brakes, because braking is serious business. Everyone is interested in increasing horsepower, but did you ever consider how fast you can stop your vehicle? That question is usually answered too late, when you have a close call or even worse, and accident. Brake rotors and pads are the most important modification you can make to you car or truck, keeping you and your passengers safe.
SP Performance Cross-Drilled and Slotted Brake Rotors are a unique design offering the best combination of cooling and out-gassing. In fact, our design is so unique we would like to go over some of the details. The first thing we will point out on the drilled rotor is the chamfer. Unlike our competition there is no edge on our chamfer. This is accomplished by the use of an outer radius curve rather than a countersink. With the radius curve, or Sinusoid Curve", it virtually eliminates an edge on the surface of the hole. With no edge, there is less stress build up, thus reducing the chance of surface checking. This smooth surface also makes the rotor more pad friendly by reducing the wear of the pad caused by the friction scraping against a sharp edge.
