POWERSTOP SLOTTED ROTORS F+R ONLY $179.99 Shipped! ATTENTION!! - THIS SALE IS NOW OVER
Please keep an eye out in the for sale section for future sales. Thank you to all the forum members who placed their orders with us, we appreciate your patronage! Click here to see our ebay store.
POWERSTOP Slotted brake rotors help prevent:
* Uneven friction layer deposits on the rotor that lead to rotor warping
* Rotor glazing due to high temperature resin bleed from the brake pad
* High temperature brake fade (loss of coefficient of friction)
* Gas and dust build-up between the pad and the rotor that reduces pad bite
The science behind the Power Stop solution
1. High carbon rotors improve temperature stability and heat transfer - Power Stop uses the finest blanks featuring G3000 grade castings from the best foundries in the world. Most foundries lower carbon to increase tensile strength and hardness. Power Stop rotors have a carbon content that is 3% more than competitive brands while maintaining 210 Brinell hardness and 250 MPa tensile strength. The microstructure is an ideal homogenous matrix of perlitic and graphite flakes.
2. Castings are made from high carbon pig-iron without residual contamination from secondary scrap metals . Almost all off-shore foundries dump scrap in the material with residual elements such as Niobium, Vanadium, Molybdenum, Titanium and Tungsten. These residual materials cause the formation of uncontrolled carbides in the microstructure that weaken the casting.
3. Precise machining - Our rotors are carefully machined to prevent stress risers, and they are guaranteed not to crack for 3 years when combined with our brake pads. All products conform to OE dimensions for a perfect fit every time.
4. Fade resistant friction - Power Stop brake pads are specifically engineered to hold a high coefficient of friction above 1000 degrees. Where other pads show brake fade, Power Stop consistently delivers superior brake power.
5. Power Stop brake pads use positive mold technology. Posi-mold pads enable consistent density as the material is hot pressed at over 6,000 psi. The result is consistent performance and low noise. All pads are asbestos free.
6. Power Stop's plating resists rust and keeps the rotors looking new. Some competitors use cadmium plating that is highly toxic, and a significant cancer risk. Cadmium is banned in Europe and with all major vehicle manufacturers.
*Shipping is free on all orders in the contiguous 48 states!

How well do these hold up to rust?
Can i paint over the zinc coating with brake paint or powder coating?
Is there any guarantee against warping?

The set I ordered were F &R silvertone with zinc coating. The people who did my install painted the hats and sandblasted and painted my calipers. They look awesome-see pics (not great but get the idea):

Geeze that's cheap how long will this deal be going? I'm waiting to see if I'm gonna be getting the parts for an LS1 front brake swap for my LT1, but I gotta make sure first before I go and buy LS1 rotors!!

The resistance to corrosion is dependent upon the conditions the rotors are subject to. Someone in AZ with a weekend cruiser will have no rust for longer than someone in Chicago with a daily driver.
You can paint over the zinc, its a great base.
There is no warranty on warping. Even Brembo won't guarantee against warping. There are just too many variables out of our control to guarantee against it. There is a one year warranty against cracking when powerstop rotors are used with pads other than powerstop. There is a three year warranty against cracking when they are used with powerstop pads.

Im going to have to order me a set of these, are the semi metallics or ceramics going to wear longer for street and occasional aggresive driving?

Compound Charts
AnivSS: The ceramic pads are the denser of the two compounds. They will wear the slowest, but keep in mind a drilled/slotted rotor will accelerate pad wear by about 20% over a blank rotor.
