Currently EVERY SINGLE ROTOR sold in Europe and the UK is BRITISH MADE and a majority of the designs specific to the USA are also BRITISH made.The British foundry is constantly expanding its in house tooled range but EBC like every brake manufacturer ....does need occasionally to buy some rotors in from approved sources to complete ranges in overseas markets. None of our competitors will ever tell you where their rotors come from and we at EBC are as disappointed as the rest of the world that cost pressure means there is not ONE foundry left in the USA to supply such parts, other brake brands when asked about origin will just sidestep the question. When we do buy rotors in, they are specified, sampled, tested for element analysis, grain structure, tensile strength, hardness and optimum ductility and tested 100 piece by piece to be perfect for runout on this in house machine.\n\u003cbr\u003e3GD Series Sport Slotted Rotor Set; Front; For FMSI Pad No. D840; Vented; 5 Bolt Holes; 288mm Dia.; 47mm Height; 25mm Thick; 68mm Center Hole Dia.;\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cli\u003eRemoves Dirt Dust And Debris From Braking Zone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cli\u003eAnodized For Protection\/Black For Domestics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cli\u003eReduces Brake Fade Under Load And At Speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cli\u003eGreat For Truck\/SUV\/Towing\/For Sedan Use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cli\u003eAnodized For Protection\/Gold For Imports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cli\u003eWide Slots Helps Brakes Run Cooler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eExperience superior braking performance with the EBC GD602 3GD Series Sport Slotted Front Brake Rotors, specifically designed for select Volkswagen Passat models from 1996 to 2006 and 1997 Audi A4s. Crafted from OE-spec grey cast iron, these rotors are manufactured in our UK foundry using advanced tooling, ensuring consistent quality and precise specifications. Each rotor undergoes rigorous testing including element analysis, grain structure inspection, tensile strength, hardness, and ductility, with every piece individually tested for runout to guarantee optimal performance. This meticulous process ensures the rotors meet strict quality standards, making them a reliable choice for demanding driving conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 3GD series features vented construction with wide slots that help dissipate heat and remove dirt, dust, and debris from the braking zone. Anodized for corrosion protection, the black finish is ideal for domestic vehicles, while the gold finish caters to import models. The slots reduce brake fade at high speeds and under load, providing consistent braking performance during towing, spirited driving, or everyday use. Designed with five bolt holes and a 288mm diameter, these rotors are compatible with specific Volkswagen and Audi models, delivering enhanced brake cooling and durability for trucks, SUVs, and sedans alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eConstructed from OE-spec grey cast iron for durability and performance\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eVented design with wide slots for effective heat dissipation and cleaner braking zone\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eAnodized black finish for domestic vehicles and gold for import models for added corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eReduces brake fade under high load and speed conditions, improving safety and reliability\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ePrecision machined and individually tested for runout, ensuring perfect fit and function\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EBC Brakes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48143534162075,"sku":"ebcGD602","price":327.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0590\/5131\/1259\/files\/dd5018bbf7c3f00d1efc799a70eab387_ea939441-12b0-4147-b006-4f7408153151.jpg?v=1773851162","url":"https:\/\/sr1performance.com\/products\/ebc-gd602-3gd-series-sport-slotted-front-brake-rotors-for-volkswagen-passat-and-audi-a4","provider":"SR1 Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
