All-new Bendix General CT rotors debut industry-first SwiftCheck innovation

Bendix’s popular General CT range has expanded with the new Bendix General CT rotors, designed to provide reliable, durable and confidence-inspiring braking performance for vehicles.

The rotors also debut Bendix’s new SwiftCheck, an industry-first innovation that provides a convenient visual indicator of rotor wear so that mechanics can easily estimate the remaining rotor life without having to measure the rotor thickness. The feature also provides convenience and peace of mind as you can inspect the rotors and take action if required, which is handy if planning an adventure.

Bendix Product Manager, Ian Campbell, said the company prided itself on bringing innovative new products to market.

"Bendix is committed to pushing the boundaries and this is evident with our new General CT disc brake rotors, which provide the brand with another industry-first," Ian said. "The SwiftCheck visual wear indicator has the potential to be a game-changer for the industry, increasing safety for drivers while also boosting efficiency for workshop technicians."

SwiftCheck is a machined feature that creates circular grooves on the rotor surface that narrow and disappear gradually as the rotor wears. Once the wear indicator displays a single dot in the centre, this indicates it’s time for the rotor to be changed. Along with offering this time-saving feature, General CT disc brake rotors shine when it comes to braking performance. The range features high-quality metallurgy that’s designed for longevity and improved heat dissipation.

The range also delivers an ‘E+ Original Equipment Fit’ that is designed to be a direct replacement for OE rotors. They meet or exceed OE specifications and deliver confidence for both mechanics and vehicle owners. General CT disc brake rotors were developed to provide great results with all disc brake pad designs, but for optimum performance they’re best matched with the Bendix range of brake pads.

As with Bendix’s other disc brake rotor product lines, General CT rotors feature SwiftFit surface protection, which is a coating that allows the rotor to be fitted without needing to remove oils. SwiftFit also helps prevent corrosion of the rotor, resulting in an almost unlimited shelf life and a rust-free rotor.
