Brake Discs

The mechanical and thermal stresses acting on the brake disc are extremely high. So it’s important they’re up to the job, and perform just as intended. Like all of our braking products, our discs are made to mirror the OE. So whatever the technology, you can be assured that every Delphi disc has been designed, engineered and manufactured to provide the very best braking performance. Just like the OE. Be it coated, cross drilled or high-carbon…it’s a given.

ECE R90 certified brake discs

It should come as no surprise that our brake discs for new vehicles launched post 1 st November 2016 are R90 certified, alongside a range for popular older applications. After all, we’ve been meeting these quality standards for many years. The only difference today: our discs now undergo official ECE R90 testing schedules including performance, dynamic friction comparison, high load integrity and thermal fatigue analysis to certify that they perform to a prescribed tolerance of the OE part.

Fully coated brake discs

Thanks to a special zinc-flake, silver Geomet coating, our coated brake discs offer greater and longer-lasting corrosion protection compared with many oil-dipped or partially painted and coated equivalents, whilst also being more cosmetically appealing. And because they have no oil to clean off, they save valuable labour and service time. All this makes for a better protected disc that’s easier to install, easier to dismount as well as being easy on the eye too.

High-carbon brake discs

The added carbon content in our high-carbon discs helps to both reduce the risk of thermal cracking under high-temperature loads, and allows the discs to operate at a cooler temperature, for a more consistent braking performance. It also increases their resistance to distortion or warping for added durability, while delivering noise and judder free braking.

Cross-drilled brake discs

As well as looking cool from behind your wheels, our cross-drilled discs will keep your brakes feeling the same way – cool. The cross-drilled holes dissipate heat, brake dust and gases, helping to keep the pad surface cool and clean and reducing the risk of thermal distortion and warping. These same holes also prevent a film of water forming during wet conditions for improved braked response.

Vented brake discs

Our vented discs feature special internal cooling passages to maximise airflow. By continually moving air across the disc’s surface or through the disc itself, they allow more heat to be dissipated, improving both cooling capacity and resistance to cracking from thermal shock.

Brake discs with bearings

To avoid damage to the bearing during removal, and ensure the correct pressing in into the new, we offer a range of discs with these safety critical components already pre-mounted. They also include both toothed and magnetic ABS sensor rings, as per the OE, and the relevant fixing accessories. All for quick and accurate installation.

One-piece cast iron brake discs

Our one-piece cast iron discs offer an aftermarket alternative to BMW’s patented two-piece bi-metallic composite disc. Engineered from a single piece of cast iron, they deliver the same standards of consistency, longevity and braking performance as the two-piece disc, but at a fraction of the price. And to top it off, they come with fixing screws for quicker and easier fitting.

Resource Highlights

In this article you will find out about our 1st-to-market brake pads for the new Land Rover Defender 110. Even quicker than the VM.

At Delphi we pride ourselves on being first-to-market on braking. The Audi Q8, Ford Fiesta ST and Focus and Toyota Supra all being great examples. But sometimes, we exceed even our own high expectations…by not only being first-to-market…but also quicker than the vehicle manufacturer too. And that’s the case with our brake pads for the brand-new Land Rover Defender 110.

Unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September 2019, the latest addition to the Land Rover line-up is currently available for pre-order only, with the first deliveries not expected until Spring 2020. So, you might well ask how we already have both the front and rear brake pads - part numbers LP2187 and LP2508 – in our range, even before you can buy them from your local Land Rover dealer?

Well don’t worry, we’re not sitting here gazing into a crystal ball. As a provider of pioneering propulsion technology to the world’s leading automakers, we know exactly what’s coming and when - often years before the very latest vehicles hit the street. With this unique insight, we can make sure we have the right, proven quality parts ready to go. So when the 2020 Land Rover Defender enters your doors, you can be just as quick off the mark.
