Winhere is primarily known as THE supplier of quality brake rotors and drums to the automotive aftermarket. Winhere makes an excellent regular rotor and has also won awards specifically for their high carbon rotors. High carbon is a more complicated material and it is important that all elements in the rotor casting are within specifications.
When you increase the carbon percentage, it reduces the overall strength of the material. Other elements are then added to the mix to bring the hardness and tensile strength up to proper specifications. Every batch of material from the furnace must be tested and approved before it is used in our moulding lines.
Adaptive One Certified High Carbon Brake Rotors : NAPA’s best brake rotor.
Has an aluminum/zinc flake coating for excellent corrosion protection to help maintain the clean look behind today's open wheels. Many of today's late model vehicles come standard with high carbon brake rotors. European vehicles have come with high carbon brake discs for many years and we are seeing many more domestic and Asian vehicles utilizing high carbon. When a car comes into the shop, there is no way to tell if the rotors are high carbon just by looking at them. There are no markings on the rotors and the metal looks the same. The only way to tell if the vehicle originally came with high carbon is to check the NAPA catalogue. It will have a footnote for the application if OE was supplied with high carbon rotors. It is highly recommended to replace a high carbon application with high carbon rotors as this is what the brake system was designed for. Even if the vehicle didn't originally come with high carbon rotors, you can always upgrade to the better material found in Adaptive One.
There are distinct advantages to high carbon. High carbon dissipates heat better than regular rotors prolonging the life of other brake components. They resist fade and thermal cracking much better. High carbon material is also referred to as damped iron so it dampens vibrations that cause noise resulting in a quiet braking performance.
