HELLA Pagid Brake Systems has launched the new line of HELLA Pagid High Carbon Disc Brake Rotors. These new advanced rotors are designed to deliver motorsports performance and reliability in a wide range of everyday road vehicles. Using OE specifications, HELLA Pagid is able to provide exact fit and finish, while providing better material content to give customers more confidence in the stopping power of their vehicles.
HELLA Pagid now offers 282 part numbers and covers 8,708 applications for a total of 15.6 million vehicles now on the road in the United States. Hella Pagid says it plans to increase the range with more extensions every six months.
Because density plays a major part in noise absorption, the HELLA Pagid High Carbon Rotors deliver the maximum density per rotor possible for silent brake operation. The rotors also provide better heat transfer for a cooler running brake system, which is fundamental in reducing brake fade, the company says.
Brake rotors also undergo a large deal of stress during braking and can distort, causing judder or vibrations. HELLA Pagid says it relies on rigorous microstructure inspections and specialized foundry processes to produce a rotor that controls the stress more efficiently to maintain a high level of friction consistency. These same processes reduce the risk of stress cracks and permanent deformation (warping).
The rotors also are coated to ensure corrosion protection, HELLA Pagid says. Corrosion causes cooling issues and wheel fitment issues that can lead to service comebacks. The rotors come ready to install right out of the box, eliminating the need for brake clean to degrease the rotors and any additional prep time for installation.
HELLA Pagid High Carbon Rotors are sold individually and packaged in a protective plastic bag as one unit per box. This includes mounting instructions and mounting hardware, if required.
