Power Slot Front Left Slotted Rotor Volkswagen Golf 97-98

Volkswagen is renowned world wide for their German engineering, quality, and design. Since beginning production in the United States Volkswagen has produced millions of cars without losing their attention to detail. It is this attention to detail that has made the company such a success. Volkswagen is able to provide drivers with performance without sacrificing economy or practicality. Many production vehicles??? braking systems are compromised in regards to performance to reduce costs. A factory brake system is designed to handle normal stop and go traffic, not continuous aggressive braking in high temperature situations.

What good is power without control? The ability to stop quickly is just as important as accelerating quickly, especially on a race track. As any weekend racer will tell you, factory brake systems will quickly overheat and fail when put in even moderate track conditions. That means worn pads, warped rotors and expensive repair bills

Excessive heat can cause resins in your brake pad to vaporize or "outgas." As the brake pad wears, the used friction material turns into a fine dust. This boundary layer of heat, gas and dust builds up between the pad and rotor surfaces and inhibits performance. Power Slot's exclusive Vac-U-Slots are machined into the rotor and help evacuate gasses and dust, shed heat, and keep the brake pad surface clean. And in wet, raining conditions, Vac-U-Slot helps push water off the braking surface for better stopping power. The Vac-U-Slot also serves as a visual wear indicator. The slot is machined to the rotor???s minimum thickness where it crosses the outside edge. If you cannot see the slot along the outside edge, the rotor has worn down to its discard depth. A combination of high performance brake pads and Power Slot???s slotted rotors will deliver superior, reliable braking for virtually all automotive, truck and SUV applications, even under hard driving and severe duty conditions.Please contact us if you have any questions.
