Rotor 5bt .250in 10in x 5in Front Drag

The Rotor 5bt .250in 10in x 5in Front Drag from WILWOOD is an essential high-performance brake rotor engineered for serious drag racing and competition applications. Built for drivers who demand consistent, reliable stopping power under extreme thermal stress, this rotor handles the intense braking demands of dedicated drag vehicles where heat dissipation and fade resistance are non-negotiable. Whether you're running a dedicated quarter-mile machine or upgrading a street-legal drag car, this front rotor delivers the thermal capacity and structural integrity required for repeated hard stops.

This rotor features a 10-inch diameter with a robust .250-inch thickness, providing superior heat absorption and dissipation compared to standard street rotors. The 5-bolt mount pattern ensures compatibility with a wide range of drag-specific brake kits and front-end conversions commonly found in purpose-built race vehicles. WILWOOD's engineering focuses on minimizing rotor growth under high temperatures—critical for maintaining brake feel and consistency through multiple passes. The substantial mass and premium iron construction prevent warping and cracking during the aggressive thermal cycling inherent to drag racing, where brake temperatures routinely exceed 500°F.

Competition mechanics and drag racers choose WILWOOD rotors because they integrate seamlessly with dedicated race brake systems and withstand the punishment of full-throttle launches followed by maximum-effort stops. Proper installation requires verification of wheel fitment clearance, as larger rotors demand adequate space within typical drag wheel designs. This front rotor pairs ideally with high-temperature brake fluid and race-spec friction materials formulated for drag applications. The 3.5-pound weight contributes to system mass without compromising unsprung weight concerns that plague some competitors.
