Elite ANTI-RUST Coating
All Max Elite Series Rotors are finished with a premium Black Anti-Rust Coating. This coating provides oxidation protection which prevents rust and corrosion build ups on the hub areas and internal vanes of the rotors. The Elite Black Coating is the highest level of surface protection we offer, it is more durable than traditional zinc plating process and is less likely to lift and flake after installation.
Please note that the black coating around the braking areas of the rotor will eventually wear off after use. This is intentional and unavoidable. However, the hat, vents and other parts of the rotor where the pads do not come into contact will remain coated. This makes the rounded slots and cross drilled holes more visible and provide a nice contrasting look.
