DUAL COATED CAST IRON BRAKE ROTOR AND METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION

摘要

A brake rotor for a vehicle and method of construction thereof provides a cast iron disc with a first coating of a ceramic anti-wear material adhered to the cast iron disc to provide an annular friction surface for braking engagement with a brake pad. The disc has a second coating different from the first coating. The second coating is adhered to the disc to provide an annular non-braking surface spaced from the friction surface. The non-braking surface provided by the second coating is resistant to corrosion.
