2/20/2019

Blank, cross-drilled or slotted. Not one but 3 choices to give your Abarth 500 the best braking performance possible.

You can be forgiven for losing track of time when you're driving your Abarth 500. After all those miles together, it's now time to revitalize your braking system by changing the pads and discs.

It's not an easy decision to make, as not all discs and brands are equal. There are brands that have only been around for a short while, and others that continue to set the standard for innovation. With over 50 years of experience as a partner to the world's best known car brands, who better than Brembo to give you the best product for your car?

Your Abarth 500 deserves nothing but the best, which is why Brembo suggests 3 different options for changing the brake discs. Always remember to replace the brake pads together with the disks, as using new disks with worn friction material could damage them quickly.

Brembo Original

Of all the options suggested by Brembo, undrilled, unslotted brake disks are the most natural choice. The smooth surfaces of blank discs reduce brake pad wear and offer a safe, comfortable driving experience. Most importantly, Brembo discs offer exactly the same quality and performance as the discs that your Abarth 500 had when it left the factory. In addition to hallmark Brembo quality, depending on the specific car model, these brake disks may also boast a number of other advanced features relative to ventilation technology, paint treatment and the chemical composition of the cast iron used for manufacture.
PVT Pillar Vented Technology: these discs feature a pillar ventilation system, which improves resistance to thermal cracking by 40% compared with vane vented discs.
High Carbon: the high percentage of carbon in the cast iron used to manufacturer these disks reduces vibration and noise when driving.
UV paint treatment: these discs feature a metallic effect finish which makes them more corrosion resistant, brighter and more elegant.

Brembo Xtra

Want to give your Abarth 500 a set of new, higher performance disks? Brembo recommends cross-drilled disks.
Unquestionably stylish, Brembo Xtra disks offer responsive, effective stopping power in all braking conditions.
This superlative performance is made possible by the holes drilled into the rotor, which increase grip at the start of braking in particular, and in both high temperature and wet conditions.

The holes also contribute to keeping the braking system at peak performance by scraping the pad and removing accumulated debris. Another function of these holes is to optimize the dissipation of the heat and gas released as a result of friction, which is necessary to maximize the performance of the entire brake system.

Brembo Xtra disks are unmistakable, delivering impeccable braking performance and sporting a special UV-cured paint treatment which makes them even more eye-catching.

Brembo Max

If you're looking for something out of the ordinary, Brembo has a range of slotted disks offering numerous performance benefits.

The main difference between Brembo Max disks and standard components is their ability to deliver outstanding performance right from the very first moments after you press the brake pedal.
These special slots have been perfected by Brembo to prevent the phenomenon of pad glazing.

One of the slots on the rotor of a Brembo Max disc serves as a disc wear indicator.
This allows you to check the state of wear of the disks by yourself and determine when the wear limit is reached and the disks have to be replaced.
