Brembo 08A91211 UV Coated Brake Disc

Description

This Brembo brake disc is a critical component of a vehicle's braking system, responsible for converting kinetic energy into thermal energy through friction when the brake calipers apply pressure. It's used in the front or rear braking systems of various passenger cars and light trucks. This UV coated brake disc provides consistent braking performance and extended lifespan through its durable construction and corrosion resistance. It measures 107 x 270 x 270 mm and is manufactured in Italy with the MPN 08.A912.11.

Key Features & Benefits

Basically, this disc is what your brake pads squeeze against to slow down or stop your vehicle. It’s a steel disc, pretty straightforward. The UV coating is a special protective layer applied to the surface. It doesn’t change how it stops, it protects it from things that can mess with its performance over time. It’s a key part of your braking system, obviously. It takes a lot of heat and friction during braking, and it needs to be smooth and consistent to give you reliable stopping power. The disc spins with the wheel, and when you hit the brakes, the pads clamp down, creating friction that turns that rotational energy into heat, slowing things down. It works with the calipers, pads, and brake lines to give you controlled stops.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Without good discs, your stopping distance increases, and you lose confidence in your brakes. Regular steel discs can rust, especially if you live somewhere with harsh winters or near the ocean. That rust creates uneven surfaces, which can lead to vibrations, noise, and reduced braking efficiency. This UV coating acts like a shield against corrosion. It slows down the rusting process significantly and keeps the surface smoother for longer. You’ll notice if your discs are going bad – things like a pulsing brake pedal, squealing noises, or it just taking longer to stop. A good disc, protected with this UV coating, will give you consistent performance and last longer. You can find these pretty easily online, Fixparts Online has a good selection if you're looking. It’s a relatively inexpensive part when you consider how important it is for your safety.
