Brembo 09.8690.1X Xtra Cross-Drilled Front Brake Rotor

The Brembo 09.8690.1X is a premium Xtra line front brake rotor featuring cross-drilled technology and advanced UV coating for superior braking performance. Engineered as a direct replacement that meets or exceeds OEM specifications, this vented rotor is designed for drivers seeking enhanced stopping power, improved heat dissipation, and extended rotor life.

Key Features:

• Cross-drilled braking surface improves cooling and heat dissipation for greater fade resistance
• Vented design with internal ventilation channels maximizes airflow and thermal management
• Environmentally friendly solvent-free UV coating protects the entire disc surface, including the hub and ventilation chambers, against corrosion
• High-carbon cast iron construction minimizes noise and vibration while enhancing thermal stability
• 312mm diameter provides optimal braking surface area
• 25mm disc thickness (23.5mm minimum thickness)
• Intelligent marking system displays part number and minimum thickness for easy inspection
• Includes fixing screw kit with all necessary hardware for straightforward installation
• ECE R-90 homologated for road use

The cross-drilled design delivers multiple performance benefits: enhanced pad cleaning through a scraping effect that removes dangerous deposits, superior wet-weather braking by interrupting water film formation, improved initial bite and grip, and rapid expulsion of gases at high temperatures. The precision-balanced rotor features tight manufacturing tolerances to minimize runout and vibration, ensuring smooth and confident braking performance. Brembo recommends replacing rotors and pads together to optimize braking performance and pairing this rotor with Brembo NAO/Ceramic or Low-Met brake pad formulations.
