Swiss Stop Catalyst Race Brake Disc

The SwissStop Catalyst Race brake disc ensures powerful braking and high durability with optimal heat dissipation

The Catalyst Race is the premium model among SwissStop’s brake discs. The two-piece construction, comprising an aluminium spider and a stainless steel friction ring, ensures an ideal balance between low weight, reliable heat management and rotor stiffness. The friction ring thickness of 1.80 mm is optimised for use with Swiss Stop Race pads. Three small holes on each side of the rotor indicate when the minimum thickness of 1.6 mm has been reached and the brake disc should be replaced.

SwissStop Catalyst Race Brake Disc Technology:

• Two-piece brake disc with a spider made from 7075-T6 aluminium alloy and the proven Catalyst brake ring made from SUS410 stainless steel

On 1 January 2017, the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) launched the second trial phase for disc brakes in road cycling. For this purpose, the brake discs must not have 90° edges on the outer side. The SwissStop Catalyst discs were approved for road racing due to their rounded edges on the outer side.
