Overview
The Hunter ACE01BLK AutoComp Elite On-Car Brake Lathe features patented Anti-Chatter Technology and a Variable-Speed Drive System that allows it to cut rotors twice as fast as traditional lathes while delivering a smoother surface finish. This on-car brake lathe includes Automatic Compensation that completes in 12 seconds or less on average, eliminating guesswork and reducing setup time. The ACE01BLK comes with Digi-Cal for instant rotor dimension measurement and Passenger Adaptors, covering service for 3-, 4-, and 5-lug vehicles with bolt patterns from 112-210mm. Machining rotors on the vehicle ensures they are true to the vehicle geometry, correcting hub runout and alignment issues for superior brake performance and longer rotor life.
