The Wilwood GT48 Directional Brake Rotor (Part #160-8747) is a premium racing brake rotor engineered for extreme braking performance in professional motorsports and high-performance applications. Featuring a 12.60-inch outside diameter, 1.29-inch nominal thickness, and a left-hand (driver side) directional curved vane design, this rotor provides exceptional cooling efficiency, thermal stability, and consistent braking under the most demanding conditions.

Manufactured from Wilwood's proprietary Spec-37 high-carbon iron alloy, the GT48 rotor is specifically designed to resist distortion, warping, cracking, and excessive wear during repeated high-temperature braking cycles. Its 48 curved internal vanes maximize airflow through the rotor, while the GT asymmetrical slotted face continuously cleans the brake pads and evacuates gases for improved pedal feel and braking consistency. Each rotor is individually dynamically balanced to reduce vibration and deliver smooth operation at high speeds.

Ideal for road racing, stock cars, late model racing, rally, off-road competition, heavy-duty street performance, and industrial applications, the Wilwood 160-8747 rotor delivers the durability and stopping power expected from Wilwood Engineering.
