After an extensive development program, thousands of hours dyno testing, and the construction of a brand-new production line at the EBC Brakes World Headquarters in Northampton, UK, EBC are pleased to launch a new range of high performance 2-piece fully-floating brake rotors under the newly formed EBC Brakes Racing sub-brand.
Embarking on this project, the EBC Brakes Racing team?s mission was a clearly defined one; to develop the highest quality 2-piece floating brake rotor available on today?s marketplace. The componentry and technology used in these brake rotors exemplifies this pursuit of ultimate and absolute quality, culminating in a brake rotor that is perfectly matched to the highest braking demands of modern performance road and race cars.
The benefits of using a high-performance metallurgy are evident after testing EBC Brakes Racing?s 2-piece floating rotors against the recently introduced and extremely harsh ?Reg 90? dynamometer routine. The EBC 2-piece rotors completed two full test cycles back-to-back with zero disc cracking and no visible disc crazing. To put this into perspective, most OE discs show signs of cracking at stop 40 and then fail at 50% through just one R90 test, at stop 80 of 150. The quality of EBC?s metallurgy coupled with the fact that the disc is fully-floating in its design allows EBC?s 2-piece rotors to outperform most OE discs by a factor of over 4x in the ?R90 Thermal Fatigue Test?.
SG2F/SG2FC discs/rotors have a black heat-resistant finish that quickly wears down to the natural iron finish on the disc ring within the first few miles. Any unswept areas remain protected by the black coating, such as the outer edges and inside the pad track, unless burned off due to hard use and high temperatures.
