Wilwood GT-48 Vented Iron Rotor – 12.88 x 0.81 inches for High-Performance Motorsports

Description

The Wilwood GT-48 Vented Iron Rotor, part number 160-9959, is engineered specifically for demanding professional motorsports environments. Crafted from premium grade long grain carbon iron, this rotor offers exceptional heat absorption and dissipation properties to prevent heat fade during intense braking. Its heavy wall, directional vane design ensures superior thermal management, allowing for longer service life and consistent performance under extreme conditions. Ideal for short track and road course competition, this rotor helps maintain optimal braking performance even during prolonged or aggressive driving sessions.

Precision machining eliminates stress points and unnecessary weight, enhancing durability and responsiveness. The rotor’s face and outer diameter are turned to less than 0.001 inches, ensuring flatness, parallelism, and minimal run-out for smooth engagement and reduced vibration. An asymmetrical face slot pattern is incorporated to provide smoother pad engagement by reducing harmonic vibrations and improving thermal balance between the inner and outer diameters. Each rotor is individually dynamically balanced to ensure vibration-free performance at any speed, making it a reliable choice for high-performance applications.

Designed to deliver maximum cooling capacity and long service intervals, the Wilwood GT-48 rotor is an essential component for racers and high-performance enthusiasts seeking durability, stability, and consistent braking power. Its high-quality construction and meticulous manufacturing processes make it well-suited for extreme braking demands on the track, ensuring safety and performance are maintained at all times. Whether used on short tracks or challenging road courses, this rotor provides the reliability needed for competitive racing and spirited driving.
