Caution on Drilled Rotors

There is a common mis-perception that rotors are drilled to improve cooling. The reduced mass of a drilled rotor will dissipate its retained heat quicker, but it also builds up heat a much faster rate. The decision to use drilled rotors should be solely based on the merits of the lower rotating and unsprung weight, and NOT for improved cooling. It is NOT wise to use drilled rotors in sustained high heat on hard braking tracks unless the team budget affords a high frequency of rotor and brake pad replacement.

Race drilled rotors are unsafe for street use
Suitable applications: Light to moderate Dirt Racing

Proper Break-In Procedure for Steel or Cast Iron Rotors

New steel/iron rotors should be bedded in before being used in racing conditions. Proper bedding will prepare the rotor surface, prolong the rotor's life, and make it more resistant to thermal checking or cracking under severe braking conditions. The following procedures should be performed when bedding in both steel and cast iron rotors. It is best to bed in a new rotor using a used set of pads, preferably ones which will not create heat rapidly. Generating heat too rapidly will thermal shock the rotors. Likewise, when bedding in a new set of brake pads it is best to perform the process on a used rotor. This new/used bedding process permits controlled bedding of each individual component.

Make sure rotor surfaces are free from oils, grease, and brake fluid. Run vehicle up to a moderate speed and make several medium deceleration stops to heat up the rotor slowly. This will help reduce the chance of thermal shock caused by uneven heating of the rotor. Pull into the pits and allow the rotor to cool to ambient air temperature. Care should be taken not to ride the brakes into the pits as this may hot spot the rotor causing premature wear to the surface or structural damage.

Wilwood 160-5864 Details

When it comes to brake rotors, racers are constantly searching for the ultimate balance between the lowest weight and the ability to effectively manage heat. Decreased rotating weight in the drive line provides quicker deceleration under braking and quicker acceleration out of the corners. Lower weight also benefits handling with improved spring and shock control over the unsprung suspension mass. Wilwoods ULD-32 drilled iron rotors provides effective lightweight options for sprints, late models, modifieds, and other competition applications that race in low to medium temperature ranges.

Cast from premium grade, long grain carbon iron
Close tolerances on face and vane thickness
32 straight vane casting provides superior heat management and long service life
Two row, 64 hole pattern - alternates between and directly over each vane
Each hole deeply chamfered to eliminate stress points
Rotating and unsprung rotor mass reduced by 12%

I have been using this rotor on the back of my 3500 lbs 70 Camaro that I race on Mid-Ohio, and it gets street driven. No issues so far just make sure keep eye out for stress cracks they will appear eventually like any other drilled rotor.

Rotors have good wear life on a dirt late model. Do keep an eye out for stress cracks as they age.
