General CT™ Disc Brake Rotor

A market-first innovation for Australia and New Zealand, SwiftCheckTM provides a fast and convenient visual indicator of rotor wear, letting motor trade professionals estimate remaining rotor life without the need to measure rotor thickness, allowing them to decide on part replacement. The feature also provides added convenience and peace of mind for vehicle owners, who can inspect the rotors themselves and take appropriate action if needed, such as when preparing for an extended driving holiday or similar.

SwiftCheckTM is a machined feature that creates circular grooves on the rotor surface that narrow and disappear progressively as the rotor wears. Once the wear indicator displays a singular dot in the centre, this indicates it’s time for the rotor to be changed.

The new Bendix General CTTM disc brake rotors feature Bendix’s clever SwiftFitTM surface protection, which allows the rotor to be fitted immediately without the need to clean anti-rust oil or coating from the surface. The SwiftFitTM coating also prevents corrosion of the rotor resulting in unlimited shelf life, longer fault free service and a rust-free rotor hat, which is often visible behind open alloy wheels. Frequently with uncoated conventional rotors, corrosion can lead to the rotor mating with the wheel hub face over time, creating a vibration that will feel like a wheel imbalance.

General CTTM disc brake rotors deliver an ‘E+ Original Equipment Fit’ and are designed to be a direct replacement for OE rotors; they’re tested for braking capabilities, speed sensitivity and cold performance. This performance provides both workshops and owners the peace of mind in knowing that their rotors are manufactured to exacting standards and deliver optimum results.

Bendix’s strong focus on sustainability sees the General CTTM Disc Brake Rotor range adopt FSCTM Certified exterior packaging, which is suitable for curbside recycling. For the first time on any Bendix packaging, the General CTTM Disc Brake Rotor box also contains fitting instructions in the form of an illustrative guide, which should be used along with vehicle specific information provided by the OE manufacturer during installation.

Another new feature of the packaging on most rotors within the General CTTM range, is the introduction of ‘Easy Carry’ finger holes. These are pre-punctured holes that allow each box to be picked up and handled more ergonomically and easily.

The General CTTM Disc Brake Rotor range was developed to provide great results with all disc brake pad formulations, but for optimum performance, they’re best matched with the Bendix range of brake pads. The General CTTM Disc Brake Rotor range is available to suit a wide selection of both late and early model passenger cars, four-wheel drives and light commercial vehicles.
