• Corrosion-resistant gold zinc plating provides excellent protection against rust and corrosion, maintaining appearance and functionality over time.
• Designed to improve wet weather braking, ensuring consistent performance in rainy or humid conditions.
• Constructed from high-quality cast iron to withstand high temperatures and heavy use, delivering reliable stopping power.
• Enhanced venting and slotting promote better heat dissipation and debris removal, keeping the rotor cooler and cleaner.
• Suitable for daily driving, spirited street use, and light track days, offering a versatile upgrade for your Mercedes-Benz C300.

Construction & Design

The PowerStop Autospecialty brake rotor features a robust cast iron construction, carefully engineered to meet or exceed OEM specifications. The rotor’s design includes precision-machined surfaces and oversized drill holes that facilitate rapid heat dissipation, reducing the risk of brake fade and maintaining consistent performance during extended use. The gold zinc plating not only enhances corrosion resistance but also provides a sleek, factory-like appearance that resists the elements.

Each rotor is manufactured with strict quality control standards, ensuring a perfect fit and reliable operation. The counter-sunk holes are strategically placed to prevent stress risers, which can lead to cracking over time. The vented design promotes airflow around the rotor, further aiding in temperature management and prolonging service life. Overall, the EBR1606 combines durability, performance, and corrosion resistance in a thoughtfully designed package.

Performance & Sound

The PowerStop EBR1606 rotor is engineered to improve your vehicle’s braking response and reduce stopping distances compared to the original equipment. The oversized drill holes and vented design help manage heat buildup, resulting in more consistent braking performance during aggressive driving or stop-and-go city traffic. While specific horsepower or torque gains are not claimed, users can expect a noticeable improvement in braking feel and confidence.

The design also helps minimize brake noise and vibration, providing a quieter, smoother braking experience. The high-quality materials and precise manufacturing ensure that the rotor maintains its shape and performance over time, even under demanding conditions.

Installation & Fitment
