Rear brake rotors on daily-driven crossovers take a beating from heat cycles, road salt, and moisture, and cheap replacements show it within a season. EBC's RK1839 Premium Rotors bring G3000-spec cast iron construction and a Gen 3 corrosion-resistant coating to the rear axle of the 2013-2020 Ford Escape 1.6 Turbo 2WD, delivering OE-quality fitment without the compromises of budget imports.
Gen 3 Silver Grey Geomet-style coating. EBC's latest surface finish applies a highly corrosion-resistant silver grey coating directly at the casting plant, immediately after machining and washing. That timing matters: bare cast iron begins surface oxidation within minutes of being washed, and coating at the source eliminates that window entirely. The silver finish closely matches factory rotor colors, so replacing only one axle does not leave a visible mismatch between the front and rear of the vehicle.
G3000 spec cast iron throughout. Every RK1839 rotor is cast to G3000 material specifications, the same grade used by original equipment suppliers. The consistent metallurgy controls thermal expansion, resists cracking under repeated heat cycles, and holds the tight tolerances needed for smooth, vibration-free braking over the long term.
100 percent runout inspection, no exceptions. Each rotor passes through a dedicated runout inspection machine before leaving the facility. Over 80 percent of EBC rotor castings originate from European foundries, and all sport rotor machining takes place in either the UK or the USA. That combination of controlled sourcing and mandatory inspection keeps lateral runout within specification on every unit that ships.
Product Benefits
