Carbon Ceramic Brake Rotors

Just like the conventional brake rotors, Semicorex carbon ceramic brake rotors work by generating braking force through the friction between the brake pads and the rotor. However, they differ in their braking performance. Fully utilizing superior properties of carbon fiber and silicon carbide,  Semicorex carbon ceramic brake rotors have far superior wear resistance, thermal fade resistance, and water fade resistance compared to conventional brake rotors. This is especially advantageous in driving scenarios such as motorsports, mountain roads, or repeated high-speed braking.

Exceptional thermal management  

The thermal fade refers to the braking performance loss caused by overheating. Semicorex carbon ceramic brake rotors have exceptional thermal resistance with a maximum operating temperature of around 1,400°C and can significantly prevent the undesired brake thermal fade generated during braking conditions. Additionally, Semicorex carbon ceramic brake rotors deliver outstanding heat dissipation capabilities, which can reduces the risks of cracking and deformation of the brake rotors. Even under the aggressive driving conditions, Semicorex carbon ceramic brake rotors can retain consistent braking performance.

Reliable wet braking performance

Wet driving environments often cause brake fade in traditional braking systems, since water diminishes the friction between brake rotors and brake pads. However, Semicorex carbon ceramic brake rotors can overcome this challenge. They can offer stable and constant friction force during driving in wet environments, which can prevents the unwanted wet brake fade in rainy or humid weather. Semicorex carbon ceramic brake rotors are perfect for safe driving in inclement weather because they provide exceptional corrosion resistance, preventing rust or damage from water or road salt.

Special light weight structure

Unsprung mass refers to the mass of components not supported by the suspension system, such as wheels and brakes. Typically, the lighter the unsprung mass of a vehicle, the better its handling, acceleration, and braking performance. With a a density of only 2.3 g/cm³ , Semicorex carbon ceramic brake rotors weigh only one-third of traditional steel brake rotors, which greatly lowers the unsprung mass of the vehicle, effectively improving vehicle agility and energy efficiency without compromising strength or braking capability.

Remarkable service life

Semicorex carbon ceramic brake rotors exhibit minimal wear from the frequent friction between the brake rotors and pads. Semicorex carbon ceramic brake rotors exhibit minimal wear under frequent friction and high-speed braking conditions, primarily due to their excellent hardness and wear resistance, resulting in superior durability and a prolonged lifespan. Typically, carbon ceramic brake rotors last 3 to 5 times longer than ordinary steel brake rotors. This means they do not require as frequent replacements as traditional brake components, making them a more cost-effective option in the long run.
