Pontiac G8 Brake Rotors

The main parts of the disc brake system are rotors, pads, and calipers. The rotors are iron discs that rotate together with the vehicle’s wheels. Friction pads are located at both sides of the rotor at a minimum distance, and once you press the pedal, they are forced against the spinning rotor to slow down the vehicle and make it stop. The calipers are special devices that accommodate friction pads and transform hydraulic pressure into mechanical effort. However, there are two side effects – a tremendous amount of heat and mechanical wear caused by abrasion.

Over time, the rotors gradually wear out and can get warped or even cracked. As a result, you may feel the pulsation in the brake pedal or hear a clattering noise. Such problems can result in longer stopping distances, and you may have a feeling that your automobile is not going to stop at all.
