Key Features

The EBC GD Sport Rotors incorporate several innovative features that set them apart from standard replacement rotors:

• Wide Aperture Slots: The large slots increase airflow around the rotor surface, helping to reduce operating temperatures and prevent brake fade during extended or spirited driving sessions.
• Dimple Drilling: Strategically placed dimples help distribute stress evenly across the rotor surface, reducing the likelihood of stress cracks and enhancing durability.
• Thermic Black Finish: The sleek black coating not only enhances the visual appeal but also provides a protective barrier against road salts, moisture, and corrosion, ensuring longevity and a clean look.
• Made in the U.K.: Crafted with precision engineering and quality materials, these rotors meet high manufacturing standards for reliable performance.
• Improved Cooling: The slot and dimple design facilitate better heat dissipation, maintaining optimal braking performance even under demanding conditions.
• Enhanced Aesthetics: The black e-coating offers a modern, sporty appearance that complements any performance-oriented build.

Construction & Design

The GD Sport Rotors are constructed from high-quality cast iron, ensuring strength and durability. The wide slots are machined precisely to maximize surface area for cooling and debris removal, while the dimple drilling pattern is engineered to reduce stress concentrations that can lead to cracks. The black thermic coating is applied through a specialized process that ensures long-lasting corrosion resistance without compromising the rotor's thermal properties. The overall design balances functional cooling features with a sleek, modern look, making these rotors suitable for both daily driving and spirited use.

Installation & Fitment

The EBC GD Sport Rear Rotors are designed as direct bolt-on replacements for the rear axle of your Ford Escape 1.6 Turbo 2WD from 2013 onward. Installation is straightforward, utilizing your vehicle's existing mounting points and hardware. No cutting, drilling, or special modifications are required. For optimal performance, it is recommended to inspect and replace brake pads simultaneously, but the rotors themselves are a simple upgrade that can be completed with basic hand tools.
