Brake discs

Brake discs (also called brake rotors) take serious punishment every time you hit the pedal, and the warning signs of a worn pair are hard to miss once they appear. Common symptoms include:

• Steering wheel shaking under braking
• A pulsing or vibrating brake pedal
• Squealing or grinding noises when slowing down
• Visible deep grooves or scoring on the disc face
• Rusty or pitted disc surfaces that don't clean off
• Longer stopping distances than usual
• A brake warning light on the dashboard

The discs sit behind each wheel, clamped between the brake pads inside the caliper to slow the car down. Worn discs ruin a fresh set of pads within weeks and can cause the brake system to overheat and fail under heavy load, so warped or grooved discs aren't worth ignoring. Sourcing a sound pair online is the slow bit, with brake discs online listings spread across breakers, brake shops, and parts marketplaces with very different prices and condition notes.Parthunt24 collects used brake disc listings from marketplaces like eBay, Ovoko, RicambiPro, Opisto, Proxyparts, Ecooparts, Autoparts-24, Totalparts. Compare 264 options on price, condition, and fitment, then head to the marketplace once you've found the right pair.

Brake discs, also known as brake rotors, are essential components of a vehicle's braking system that work by creating friction when brake pads are pressed against them, helping to slow down or stop the vehicle. They are typically made of cast iron and can be solid or ventilated to improve heat dissipation during braking.Cross-check the OEM part number against your car first, then confirm front vs rear application, disc diameter and thickness, and whether you're fitting solid or ventilated discs. A disc that sits even a few millimetres off-spec throws brake balance out entirely. Use the Parthunt24 search bar with your OEM code or vehicle details, then trim the results with the side filters (Category, Manufacturer, Series, Model, Modification, Price). Every listing opens on the marketplace it's hosted on, where the seller's full breakdown and the buy option live.

• Vehicle compatibility: Match make, model, year, engine, and OEM part number.
• Front vs rear discs: Front and rear brake discs usually differ in size and design.
• Disc diameter: Verify exact outer diameter specification.
• Disc thickness: Check both new disc thickness and minimum thickness requirements.
• Solid vs ventilated discs: Ventilated discs are thicker and internally cooled.
• Drilled or slotted design: Some vehicles use performance-oriented disc designs.
• Brake system manufacturer: Ensure compatibility with Brembo, Bosch, TRW, ATE, etc.
• Bolt pattern & centre bore: Verify wheel hub fitment and mounting pattern.
• ABS compatibility: Some brake discs include integrated ABS tone rings or magnetic rings.
• Coated vs uncoated discs: Coated discs provide better corrosion resistance.
• Performance requirements: Heavy vehicles or sporty driving may require upgraded discs.
• Condition: Inspect for cracks, grooves, warping, rust, and uneven wear.

Look through the listing properly before parting with any money. A used brake disc with surface rust looks worse than it is, while a disc with deep scoring or below minimum thickness looks fine but isn't safe to fit, so condition notes and thickness measurements matter more than the headline photo.

• Photos: Clear shots of the friction face, hub area, and edge for thickness.
• Seller reputation: Buyer feedback, sales history, and review quality.
• Compatibility: OEM number checked against your vehicle and brake system.
• Included components: Single disc, pair, or with hardware and dust shields?
• Condition: Remaining thickness, deep grooves, cracks, warping, heat spots.
• Testing: Notes confirming thickness measurement and donor mileage.
• Warranty and returns: A clear path if the discs arrive warped or below the minimum thickness.
• Shipping: Packed securely to prevent rust and friction-face damage in transit.

Brake discs price varies a lot with the vehicle, disc size, and whether you're buying singles or pairs. A used pair of standard discs from a common hatchback opens at €20-€50, mid-range ventilated discs sit at €60-€140, and OEM drilled or slotted performance discs for sport or premium cars can push past €300 per pair.On Parthunt24, brake discs for sale start from as low as 5.00. Factors that move the brake discs price up or down:

• Design: Solid sits below ventilated, which sits below drilled or slotted.
• Axle: Rear discs are typically smaller and cheaper than front discs.
• Brand: OEM, Bosch, and Brembo sit at the top of the range; quality aftermarket sits below.
• Vehicle rarity: Common cars are cheaper; performance applications cost more.
• Inclusions: Hardware kits, dust shields, and ABS rings bundled bump the brake discs price.

A side-by-side brake disc price view on Parthunt24 makes the gap between a worn-down pull and a pair with usable life left clear.

A disc swap is a good moment to look at the rest of the brake system. Fresh discs only perform as well as the worst component in the system, so pads, fluid, and caliper hardware are all worth considering at the same time. Browse these on Parthunt24 alongside the discs:

• Brake pads: Always replaced as a pair with discs to ensure even bed-in and stopping power.
• Tyres: Worn tyres undermine even the best braking setup; check tread depth before disc upgrades.
• Master cylinder and booster: Worth checking on older cars where pedal feel has gone soft.
• Slide pins: Seized pins cause uneven disc wear and pulling under braking.
• Caliper: Sticking pistons heat the disc unevenly and lead to warping.
• Brake fluid: Upgrading to a higher-spec fluid raises boiling point and improves performance.
• Brake lines: Braided lines firm up pedal feel and pair well with disc upgrades.
