GiroDisc 2012+ Tesla Model S, X Slotted Rear Rotors
Product Details
GiroDisc 2012+ Tesla Model S, X Slotted Rear Rotors
The Girodisc system is a direct replacement for the OE disc. No modifications are necessary. The disc will bolt directly to the car and work with OE calipers perfectly. By upgrading the brakes with lightweight high-performance replacements as opposed to a big brake kit, the factory bias is maintained as well as the ABS efficiency.
The central hat section of the rotor is made from strictly U.S. sourced 6061-T6 aircraft specification aluminum. The disc is made from a proprietary cast iron, poured in the USA and machined from start to finish in-house at Girodisc. The rotor utilizes 48 curved directional vanes, developed in racing to act as a centrifugal pump to force cooling air through the disc.
The rotor and hat have a floating mount system, which utilizes 8 or 10 high-strength alloy steel drive pins, manufactured by Girodisc in the USA to their own specifications and cadmium plated for long-lasting corrosion resistance. These pins take the load from braking actions while maintaining the axial and radial float between the hat and disc. The pins are secured by grade 12 cap screws with hardened washers. In order to keep the rotors from making noise when cold, the pins are mounted with anti-noise spring washers on the rotor side, allowing the rotor to grow with heat expansion but eliminating the rattle and noise associated with floating rotors. This float also allows the rotor to self-center between the pads.
Once the Girodisc system is in place, simply replace the cast iron rotor when needed.
The system is sold/priced per pair.
