SHW Performance Disc Front Axle Brake Rotor For Audi R8, RS5 SHW AFX48201
Commonly referred to as a Brake Disc or a Brake Rotor, these components play a vital role in your braking system. When applying the brake pedal, this produces hydraulic fluid pressure which then transfers the pressure from the pedal through your braking system and into your brake calipers. The caliper pistons then apply pressure against your brake pads squeezing them inward against your brake rotors ultimately causing friction and stopping the vehicle. Brake rotors are a regular maintenance item which requires either servicing by means of machine work, or most commonly replacement when they become too thin, pulsate, glaze, or grind from worn-out brake pads. It's recommended to replace the brake pads and rotors at the same time.
Disc Brake Rotor Failure Symptoms
- Pulsating
- Grinding
- Squeaking
- Glazing
- Hot spots
- A noticeable lip on the rotors outer edge
About SHW Performance
SHW (parent company of the performance division) has a proud history and is one of few companies in the world that can trace its roots back over an incredible 650 years to 1365! SHW Performance produces OE brake discs for many high-performance European models meaning these are the same type & brand of brake discs that originally came on the vehicle from the factory. SHW initially began extracting iron ore and carrying out smelting activities around the area of Konigsbronn, Germany which marked the birthplace of both the plant and SHW (Schwabische Huttenwerke, translates to Swabian Smelting Works).
