what is rotor?

A brake rotor is a critical part of the disc brake system on vehicles. Identifying, understanding the purpose of the rotor and how it works in combination with the other brake system parts will help preserve your rotors.

The brake rotor is a large round hub which slips through the wheel axle bolts ending up with it’s rear side sitting flush to the axle plate. The rotor has a smooth machined surface on both sides that the brake discs come in contact with it. The discs are attached and held together to a part called the caliper, ending up with one disc positioned in the front of the rotor and the other disc faces the rear side. History Even though the disc brake system using a rotor or plate was first developed in the 1890’s it did not become commonly used until the 1950’s, and even then was typically only used on sports or race cars which demanded a more superior braking ability, which this system offers. The rotor and disc system became more prevalent for standard vehicles in the 1960’s but were usually just installed for front brakes, which is where the majority of a vehicle’s stopping power comes from. By the 1970’s and 80’s front disc brakes became more of the norm, but it was, and still is, not unusual for vehicles to continue to operate with a rear brake drum system using brake pads and drums rather than rotors and discs. Function The purpose of the rotor is to provide a reliable, hardened steel, smooth surface for the brake discs to come in contact with to stop the vehicle. By the rotor being bolted to the axle by the lug nuts that secure the wheel, the rotor remain stable rotating with the wheel, and when the discs, which are the movable parts, closing onto the rotor when the brake pedal is depressed, come in contact with the rotor...
