ECD Disc Skimming is the leading mobile on-car disc skimming specialist in the Gauteng. Disc brake related problems such as shuddering, warping, squealing, corroded, glazed or poor performing discs can all be solved by on-car skimming.
Saving money on new replacement parts and improving your carbon footprint. We also can supply an off-car disc brake skimming service. Brake discs over time have a very hard time, they are treated to extreme temperatures and conditions.
Over a period of time discs become worn and can develop hotspots and runout which you the driver can feel as a vibration and or wheel wobble, this is mostly common on cars with a fixed caliper and also on a normal road if the brakes overheated and had excessive use.
Simply replacing the discs with new ones will not necessarily completely stop the vibration as disc runout can still occur due to the drive flange having runout, if a drive flange gets a runout of 0.002" the disc will have a runout of 0.004"+. Although 0.004" is only the thickness of a hair on your head, pedal and steering wheel movement will be felt inside the car.
We can now skim discs on the vehicle so the disc will be perfectly matched to the drive flange this will eliminate any vibration issues. and save the cost of replacement.
