G7 Front Brake Disc (276mm Vented)

This front brake disc is a high-quality direct replacement for Volkswagen Golf Mk7 models fitted with PR code 1ZF front brakes. Designed to match the original factory specification, it features an internally vented construction, a 276 mm outer diameter, and a 24 mm disc thickness, ensuring dependable braking performance and effective heat management.

The disc is supplied with a protective coated surface, which helps prevent corrosion on non-friction areas such as the hub and outer edge. This not only keeps the disc looking cleaner behind alloy wheels but also extends service life, particularly on vehicles used year-round.

What this brake disc does

The front brake disc provides the friction surface that the brake pads clamp onto when you press the brake pedal. As the disc rotates with the wheel, friction generated between the pads and disc converts the vehicle’s kinetic energy into heat, slowing the car safely and predictably.

How it works

This disc uses an internally vented design, meaning it contains internal cooling vanes between the two braking faces. As the disc spins, air is drawn through these vanes, helping to dissipate heat more efficiently than a solid disc. This reduces brake fade during repeated or heavy braking and improves overall stopping consistency.

With a 24 mm thickness, this disc is correctly matched to the Mk7 Golf’s ATE single-piston front brake calipers used with PR code 1ZF systems, ensuring proper pad alignment and caliper operation.

Fitting notes & recommended additional parts

• Fitting position: Front axle (left or right – discs are identical)

• Number of holes: 5 (5-stud hub)

• Brake pads: Always replace brake pads when fitting new discs

• Brake discs: Supplied individually – we strongly recommend replacing discs in pairs

• Calipers & carriers: Inspect for wear or corrosion before refitting

• Brake fluid: Check condition during installation

Replacing discs in axle pairs helps maintain balanced braking and prevents steering vibration or uneven braking performance.
