SHW Performance Rotors

When it comes to something as critical as brake parts, there's no room for compromise. SHW Performance is the name you can count on for superior stopping power. They specialize in premium-quality brake rotors for OEM, aftermarket, and performance sectors. The company is the OEM supplier for many high-performance vehicles, including BMW, Audi, and Porsche. So when you choose SHW Performance, you're getting genuine factory equivalent quality.

SHW Performance rotors come in one-piece and two-piece designs. For most daily driving scenarios, their ventilated monoblock cast iron rotors are solid performers. If you're running a higher-performance setup, their advanced two-piece rotors with SHW's innovative peg/pin drive system are just the ticket. These floating rotors are lighter and manage heat better, which can be crucial when you're really working your brakes hard. The entire production process is held in Germany, from initial concept to final product.

The company's roots go way back to 1365, when they started as iron ore smelters (Schwabische Huttenwerke). In 1696, their first dedicated plant began operations in Tuttlingen, Germany. In 1950, disc brake rotor production became the company's primary focus. When the legendary Porsche 911 debuted in 1964, SHW helped develop the first internally ventilated brake disc, which appeared on the 911 S by 1966. By 1993, SHW was working with BMW Motorsport to develop the first pin-disc brake rotor for racing applications.
