hi tsikot peeps!!!

[size=18]just want to ask if there are disadvantages of rotor refacing[/size]..... :D :D :D

I dont think there are any disadvantage unless manipis na ang rotor mo which is very unsafe to drive.

IMHO ko lang

Advantages, you want to know too?

None.

If done improperly, it could result to more pedal kickback. It could also result to rotor cracking kung masyadong manipis ang nagawa ng talyer.

Its not only because of more pedal kickbacks, Disc cracking, Gastos at iba pa. Ang mahalaga eh mai-maintain yung braking system mo ng properly. Ang pinaka-malaking disadvantages eh yung BUHAY ng tao.

Isipin ninyo dahil lang sa kakatipid ng pagpapagawa eh nabangga ang tao. Tulad nong neighbor namin dito sa kakatipid nasunog ang front braking system niya ayun tuloy nabangga pa. Ang cause - Brake Disc masyadong manipis at hindi na nakayanan yung heat. ?Ayun pati caliper nag-lock. He ended spending more instead of replacing a simple part which is the ROTOR. Maintenance items yan so dont take any short cuts.

just my 2 cents

Every rotor has a minimum thickness embossed or stamped on it. Measure with a micrometer or dial-caliper... if below minimum, do not re-surface or machine. Drums have max inner diameter. Do not re-surface or machine if this spec is exceeded.

Drums and rotors must always be re-surfaced or machined whenever new pads or shoes are installed. Even with brand-new drums and rotors, light sanding or polishing with emery cloth is needed before installation. This will ensure even wear and proper friction pad contact.
