Are Hart brake rotors any good?
These rotors appear to be as good as any I have put on in the last 15 years, The ceramic pads that come with it are quiet and smooth, I have no noise at all when stopping, and plenty of stopping power.
Why are my brake rotors black?
It can happen when the pad and or rotor overheat and essentially burn. Don’t sand it off. Just leave it there and ride it, and it should go away.
Do black brake rotors stay black?
They will stay black (or relatively black) for about the first 100 miles… Yeah they come off pretty quickly. It doesn’t look so great once the paint or coating comes off. The one car I saw had maybe 300 miles on it, and the rotor looked terrible because it didn’t come off evenly.
Can rotors be black?
If you want black rotors have them powder coated for a long lasting good look. the rotor face will always go back to bare metal unless you go to a ZR-1 carbon brake assembly. You can also spray paint them wit ceramic black caliper paint. Either way they will need to be removed from the car.
How often should rotors be replaced?
between 50,000 and 70,000 miles
Ideally, you should have your brake pads replaced between every 10,000 and 20,000 miles, and your rotors replaced between 50,000 and 70,000 miles.
Do black rotors turn silver?
When you receive your rotors, they will be completely Black or Silver. As soon as you install them and start braking, the friction from the pads will strip the zinc from the pad surface, turning it Silver and leaving the holes, slots, and the rest of the rotor zinc coated in the color you selected.
Are coated rotors worth it?
The reason for coating rotors is to prevent rust from forming on the rotor. If rust is allowed to form, it will eat away at the metal and cause chunks of material to break off. While coated rotors do cost an additional amount, they are more durable and will last longer than uncoated rotors.
Should you paint rotors?
When looking for paint to use on your calipers and/or rotors, get only high-temperature paint. Be sure to get paint that can withstand at least 500 degrees F. Brake calipers and rotors can get hotter than the engine. So these parts need paint that can withstand the high temperatures.
Are drilled and slotted rotors better?
Given the choice between drill holes and slots, the drill holes will give you better braking power over slots for normal city/highway driving. This is why high end BMW, Porsche, Corvette, and Mercedes rotors are drilled, not slotted. However, for track racing (high speed stops), slotted rotors are the better choice.
