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. D687; Vented; 5 Bolt Holes; 288mm Dia.; 34mm Height; 25mm Thick; 65mm 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\u003eThe EBC GD818 3GD Series Sport Slotted Front Rotor Set offers high-performance braking for a variety of Volkswagen models including Beetle, Golf, and Jetta from 1999 to 2010. Manufactured from OE-spec grey cast iron, these rotors are precisely crafted in our UK foundry, ensuring quality and consistency. The ventilated design with multiple slots helps remove dirt, dust, and debris from the braking zone, enhancing overall brake performance and longevity. The rotors are anodized with a black finish for domestic vehicles and a gold finish for imports, providing corrosion resistance and a sleek appearance. Designed to reduce brake fade under load and at high speeds, these rotors are ideal for everyday driving, towing, or sport-oriented applications, delivering consistent stopping power during demanding conditions. The wide slots help keep the brakes cooler, contributing to improved safety and durability during extended use. Each rotor is rigorously tested for element analysis, grain structure, tensile strength, hardness, and ductility, with 100% inspection for perfect runout on our in-house equipment. This ensures reliable, high-quality performance for your vehicle while maintaining OEM standards and British manufacturing excellence. The set is suitable for front installation and features a 288mm diameter, 34mm height, 25mm thickness, 65mm center hole diameter, and 5 bolt holes, ensuring a perfect fit for compatible Volkswagen models.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMade from OE-spec grey cast iron for durability and performance\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eVentilated and slotted design to improve heat dissipation and brake cooling\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eAnodized finish for corrosion resistance; black for domestic vehicles and gold for imports\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eRemoves dirt, dust, and debris from the braking zone to maintain optimal stopping power\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eReduces brake fade under load and at high speeds for safer braking\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eIdeal for trucks, SUVs, towing, and sedan applications\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eRigorous testing including element analysis, grain structure, tensile strength, and hardness\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e100% inspected for perfect runout on in-house equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBritish-made in our UK foundry ensuring consistent quality\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EBC Brakes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48143495233691,"sku":"ebcGD818","price":323.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0590\/5131\/1259\/files\/dd5018bbf7c3f00d1efc799a70eab387_0a67efcc-9b8a-4485-b534-ed7af8b9ae3b.jpg?v=1773850155","url":"https:\/\/sr1performance.com\/products\/ebc-gd818-3gd-series-sport-slotted-front-rotor-set-for-volkswagen-beetle-and-golf","provider":"SR1 Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
