The brake disc is a fundamental component in ensuring the efficacy and power of a braking system.

The decisive factors in achieving more immediate and safer braking action – especially in extreme conditions – are the ability to transfer braking torque, resistance to thermo-mechanical stress and the rapid dispersal of the heat generated by braking.

To meet these requisites fully, Brembo brake discs are manufactured with superior quality raw materials: in particular, these include special stainless steel alloys for the brake rotors, and aluminium or steel alloys for the rotor hats.

HIGH CARBON
High damping coefficient
The perfect result of Brembo’s concept of offering aftermarket products developed with the same parameters as the original equipment, High Carbon (HC) discs ensure comfort and low noise as the result of their high damping coefficient. This results from Brembo technology and the complete control of production in the companys foundries allowing the variation of the chemical composition of cast iron by increasing the percentage of carbon in High Carbon (HC) discs. High Carbon (HC) discs are used for more than 1000 part numbers for cars and trucks.

PVT VENTILATION
Better cooling and resistance to thermal cracking.
The Brembo patent for PVT ventilated brake discs improves the current design by using pillars instead of vanes in the ventilation chamber. The system improves the heat dissipation capacity and increases resistance to thermal cracks by more than 40%. The most notable innovations are increased resistance to cracks, greater heat exchange surface area and greater air turbulence.
