HHR Performance » TK Dischi Freno

The TK record comes from the passion for mechanics and the elegance of Made in Italy. These TK brakes are self-ventilating disc brake rotors designed to fulfill the most demanding commitments of motorcycle competitions. The processing of every single TK brake is carried out with precision CNC machining. The braking part is composed of a chrome silicon alloy which acquires a unique friction coefficient through thermal processes in a controlled atmosphere. For the connection parts to the wheel hub, an Ergal alloy is used, always obtained from solid. To check for any defects in the material, penetrating liquids and magnetic flux are used, which provides a unique degree of safety. The effectiveness of the TK disc brake rotor can already be guessed with your initial visual inspection. The particular conical perforations exploit the Venturi principle. This translates into the following advantages: excellent cooling (tests have resulted in a 20% reduction in temperature compared to conventional discs), and a significant reduction of fading from overheating. TK brakes also provide increased safety and less weight with consequent reduction of the gyroscopic effect. Rain, atmospheric agents, and debris, such as mud and dust, are easily cleaned from the pads during use, allowing for greater braking modulation even in damp environments.
