PRO GuIDe Ferodo MXR discs feature innovative cross drill pattern Ferodo’s new MXR discs range covers most popular Motocross bikes, with all MXR discs incorporating an innovative Dirt Expulsion System (DES). “High performance brake discs are manufactured with cross drilled holes in order to improve braking performance and consistency,” says Sales Director John Davies. “In off road conditions, traditional cross John Davies, Sales Director: “In off road conditions, traditional cross drilled hole designs tend to act as a collection point for mud, which gradually reduces performance and increases wear" drilled hole designs tend to act as a collection point for mud, which gradually reduces performance and increases wear. “This is further compounded when the mud starts to bake and harden at the high temperatures often experienced during MX use. Our cross drilled hole pattern expels dirt and mud, maintaining braking performance, reducing the risk of pad glazing and prolonging the life of the braking parts”. Manufactured in high carbon stainless steel with precision engineering to guarantee extremely tight tolerances on flatness, thickness and parallelism. “The Dirt Expulsion System maintains braking consistency even in the muddiest conditions,” says Davies, “the disc profile has been developed to maximise braking performance whilst minimising weight. A high-quality paint finish on the disc edges enhances the disc’s aesthetics. FEDERAL MOGUL ITALY S.R.L.
