Brake Rotor Resurfacing & Replacement

What Are the Brake Rotors?

To examine what the rotors do, let's first look at the braking system as a whole. When you step on the brake pedal, brake fluid moves along brake lines, transferring and amplifying the force of your foot. This causes calipers to squeeze together. Attached to these calipers are brake pads, and the brake pads' lining presses against rotors to bring your vehicle to a stop. If you look at your braking system, the rotors are the shiny, round metal components.

Why Do My Rotors Need Resurfacing or Replacement?

The brake pads' lining is made of a softer material that's designed to wear down while doing minimal damage to the rotors. But, over time, the rotors may begin to wear down unevenly. If this happens, they will need to be either resurfaced or replaced. If the rotors are thin enough, resurfacing may not be an option. However, if there's sufficient thickness, the brake pad rotors may be able to be resurfaced and replaced.
