The global Slotted Brake Disc market size is predicted to grow from US$ 584 million in 2025 to US$ 902 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% from 2025 to 2031.
A slotted brake disc is a vehicle brake component designed with grooves on the surface of the disc. The grooves of a slotted brake disc are usually distributed on the friction surface of the disc in a straight line, curve or spiral shape. The width, depth and spacing of these grooves are designed according to different vehicle models and performance requirements. The grooves of a slotted brake disc can reduce the resonance between the brake pad and the brake disc, thereby reducing brake noise and vibration. This helps improve driving comfort and reduce driver fatigue. When the vehicle brakes, a large amount of friction heat is generated between the brake disc and the brake pad. The grooves of a slotted brake disc can increase the surface area of the brake disc, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency and reducing the temperature of the brake disc. This helps to reduce the thermal decay of the brake disc and improve the stability and reliability of the braking performance. Some slotted brake discs for high-performance sports cars may use deeper, wider and smaller grooves to increase the heat dissipation and chip removal capabilities of the brake disc; while the slotted brake discs for ordinary family cars may use relatively shallow, narrow and larger grooves to reduce costs while ensuring braking performance.
In terms of product type, structurally, the single disc consists of one brake disc, while the double disc has two discs. In braking performance, double discs typically have higher braking power due to their larger area, better resistance to heat fade during prolonged or severe braking, and higher braking linearity, making them more suitable for high-performance vehicles, such as race cars or heavy-duty applications, where greater braking power and reliability are critical.
In terms of product application, slotted brake disc used at passenger car, commercial vehicle, motorcycles and race cars. Their slotted design aids in efficient heat dissipation, reducing the risk of brake fade during intense or prolonged braking. Moreover, the slots assist in clearing away debris, water, and gases, ensuring consistent braking contact and improved wet-weather braking capabilities. In passenger cars, it enhances braking performance by providing efficient heat dissipation, reducing the likelihood of brake fade during regular driving and sudden stops, thus ensuring safety and a smooth driving experience.
The increasing demand for passenger cars and commercial vehicles, along with growing awareness of vehicle safety features, is driving the growth of the overall brake disc market, including slotted brake discs. Technological advancements and the need for better braking performance, especially in high-performance and luxury vehicles, are also contributing to the demand for slotted brake discs, as they offer enhanced heat dissipation and improved wet braking performance compared to traditional solid brake discs. Additionally, the market is witnessing a shift towards more advanced materials and designs, with manufacturers focusing on developing lighter and more durable slotted brake discs to meet the evolving needs of the automotive industry.
