Understanding the Floatech Disc Design

The Floatech disc represents a significant evolution in braking technology. At its core, this new design maintains the essential principles observed in international racing competitions. Central to its functionality is the interaction between the floating outer track and the fixed inner carrier. By integrating a state-of-the-art anchoring system, which includes an innovative retaining pin and washer, Galfer has effectively enhanced the assembly of the disc. This design optimizes the area that contacts the brake pads and ultimately improves road braking performance.

Testing and Development Insights

With extensive development carried out on Ai Ogura’s 2024 World Championship-winning Moto2 racer, the Floatech disc has been rigorously tested to ensure reliability and effectiveness. While floating discs have already been in existence since the 1960s, the advancements brought forth by the Floatech project showcase how years of expertise culminate in product innovation that can dramatically enhance rider safety and performance on the road.
