REPLACEMENT ROTOR DISCS ONLY. INCLUDES NEW MOUNTING HARDWARE. DOES NOT INCLUDE ALUMINUM HAT. Discovery Parts is an Authorized dealer for Girodisc products and we are one of the largest stocking dealers in the country. We ship most products same or next business day to ensure we meet your delivery deadline. The Girodisc replacement rotor system is a direct rotor disc replacement for the Girodisc two-piece hat and rotor and no modifications are necessary. The rotor and hat mount together through a floating mount system which utilizes 8-10 high strength alloy steel drive pins manufactured by Girodisc in the USA to our own specifications and are cadmium plated for corrosion resistance. The alloy drive pins transfer the load from the brake action while maintaining the axial and radial float between the disc rotor and hat. The pins are secured by grade 12 cap screws with hardened washers and mounted with anti-noise spring washers to allow for heat expansion while eliminating the rattle and noise associated with floating rotors. The two-piece Girodisc design allows for rotor only replacement to minimize replacement costs and deliver outstanding performance and cooling. Sold/priced per pair.

Sparco K-Arrow+ Kart Racing Gloves The Sparco K-Arrow+ Kart Racing Gloves deliver the close steering feel, dependable grip, and pressure-reducing comfort serious kart racers need. Updated to meet the FIA 8877-2022 karting standard, the K-Arrow+ combines a lightweight stretch construction with pre-curved fingers, external seams, and Sparco’s ultra-grip silicone palm. An anatomically shaped palm helps reduce material bunching around the primary steering-wheel contact areas, while the externally stitched fingers and thumb create a smoother interior. Touch-S technology on the index finger also allows drivers to operate many compatible touchscreen devices without removing their gloves. FIA 8877-2022 Karting Homologation The Sparco K-Arrow+ is homologated to the FIA 8877-2022 standard for karting apparel. This current approval makes the gloves suitable for karting championships and events that require FIA-compliant protective equipment. Equipment requirements can differ between sanctioning organizations, classes, and competition levels. Drivers should confirm the current technical regulations for their specific series before entering an event. Ultra-Grip Silicone Palm A high-traction silicone pattern is applied across the palm to create a secure connection with the steering wheel. The grip surface helps limit unwanted hand movement during heavy braking, rapid direction changes, and high-load corners. Because the grip is applied as a low-profile print, it increases traction without placing a thick reinforcement layer between the driver and wheel. This preserves the steering feedback needed to recognize changes in front-tire grip and chassis balance. Anatomically Shaped Palm The palm is constructed to follow the natural contours of the hand while gripping a kart steering wheel. This anatomical design helps minimize folds, excess material, and pressure around the major contact areas. A closer palm fit allows the glove and hand to move together more consistently, improving steering sensitivity and reducing distractions during demanding sessions. Pre-Curved Finger Construction The K-Arrow+ uses pre-curved fingers shaped around the position the hand naturally assumes while driving. This design reduces the effort needed to close the hand around the wheel and helps prevent material from bunching at the finger joints. Reducing resistance through the fingers can improve comfort during long races, repeated heats, testing sessions, and endurance karting events. External Finger and Thumb Seams External seams move bulky stitching away from the interior contact areas of the fingers. The K-Arrow+ also uses an externally stitched thumb to reduce pressure in an area that remains in constant contact with the steering wheel. This seam arrangement creates a smoother internal fit and can help prevent rubbing, irritation, and hot spots during extended use. Lightweight Stretch Construction Flexible upper materials allow the glove to follow the movement of the hand without creating unnecessary stiffness. The close-fitting construction supports precise steering inputs while helping prevent loose material from shifting around the fingers. Its lightweight design also makes the K-Arrow+ well suited to physically demanding races and warm track conditions where a heavier glove may become uncomfortable. Touch-S Compatible Index Finger Sparco Touch-S material on the index finger allows the driver to operate many compatible smartphones, tablets, timing devices, and data displays without removing the glove. This feature is useful between sessions when reviewing lap times, checking schedules, adjusting timing applications, or communicating with team members. Secure Elasticated Wrist An elasticated wrist helps keep the glove securely positioned during rapid steering movements. The flexible opening allows quick entry while maintaining a close fit once the glove is on. The streamlined wrist eliminates the bulk of a large external adjustment strap and supports unrestricted movement between the hand and forearm. Sparco K-Arrow+ Kart Racing Glove Features FIA 8877-2022 homologated for kart racing Ultra-grip silicone palm improves steering-wheel traction Anatomically shaped palm reduces excess material Pre-curved fingers support a natural driving position External finger seams reduce internal pressure points Externally stitched thumb improves comfort and steering feel Lightweight stretch construction supports natural movement Close performance fit preserves steering sensitivity Touch-S compatible index finger Elasticated wrist provides secure retention Available in adult and youth sizes Sparco K-Arrow+ Kart Racing Glove Specifications Manufacturer: Sparco Model: K-Arrow+ Product Type: Kart Racing Gloves Palm: Anatomically Shaped Ultra-Grip Silicone Palm Finger Construction: Pre-Curved Finger Seams: External Thumb Seam: External Touchscreen Compatibility: Touch-S Index Finger Wrist: Elasticated Youth Sizes: 4–6 Adult Sizes: 7–13 Homologation: FIA 8877-2022 How the K-Arrow+ Differs from the Previous K-Arrow The K-Arrow+ is the updated version developed to comply with the FIA 8877-2022 karting standard. It retains the lightweight feel, pre-curved construction, external seams, and high-grip palm that made the earlier K-Arrow popular. For racers participating in championships that require the newer FIA standard, the K-Arrow+ is the appropriate version to consider. Owners of the previous model should verify whether its older certification remains accepted by their series. K-Arrow+ or K-Tide+: Which Sparco Glove Is Better? The K-Arrow+ emphasizes lightweight construction, a low-profile silicone palm, and direct steering feedback. It is well suited to racers who prefer a thinner connection with the wheel and minimal material between the hand and steering rim. The Sparco K-Tide+ uses a more structured 3D HTX palm designed to provide greater vibration absorption and cushioning. Drivers seeking maximum sensitivity may prefer the K-Arrow+, while racers wanting additional vibration damping may favor the K-Tide+. Who Should Choose the Sparco K-Arrow+? The K-Arrow+ is a strong choice for sprint racers, endurance competitors, and drivers who experience discomfort from conventional internal finger seams. Its pre-curved shape and external stitching make it particularly suitable for long sessions requiring repeated high-load steering inputs. It is also a practical option for youth racers because Sparco offers dedicated sizes 4 through 6 in addition to the adult range. Sparco K-Arrow+ Kart Racing Glove Size Chart Frequently Asked Questions Does the Sparco K-Arrow+ use an HTX palm?No. The K-Arrow+ uses Sparco’s ultra-grip silicone palm. The raised 3D HTX palm is associated with models such as the Sparco K-Tide+. Is the K-Arrow+ legal for FIA karting competition?The glove is homologated to FIA 8877-2022. Drivers should still confirm that their exact championship, class, and event accept the listed homologation. What changed from the original Sparco K-Arrow?The K-Arrow+ is the updated model designed to comply with the newer FIA 8877-2022 karting standard while retaining the lightweight construction, external seams, pre-curved fit, and high-grip palm concept. Is the K-Arrow+ heavily padded?No. It prioritizes direct steering feel and a lightweight connection with the wheel rather than thick cushioning. Drivers seeking greater vibration damping may prefer the Sparco K-Tide+. Why is the thumb seam positioned externally?Moving the thumb seam outside reduces stitching pressure in an area that remains in frequent contact with the wheel. This can improve comfort during long sessions. Will the silicone palm make it difficult to reposition my hands?The palm provides strong traction, so drivers may need to lift the hand slightly rather than slide it across the steering wheel. This secure grip is beneficial during aggressive steering inputs. Does the touchscreen material cover both the thumb and index finger?Sparco’s current official description identifies Touch-S compatibility on the index finger. Device responsiveness can vary depending on the screen and screen protector. Are youth sizes available?Yes. Sparco lists youth sizes 4 through 6, followed by adult sizes 7 through 13. Do the K-Arrow+ Gloves run tighter than ordinary gloves?They are designed for a close competition fit. Use your hand measurement and the Sparco chart rather than selecting solely from your casual glove size. What should I do if my palm fits but the fingers are too long?Excess space at the fingertips can reduce steering sensitivity. Try the smaller size only if it does not compress the palm, restrict circulation, or force the fingers to curl. Are these suitable for endurance karting?Yes. The pre-curved fingers and external seams are designed to reduce pressure and fatigue during long races. Drivers wanting additional vibration cushioning may prefer the K-Tide+. Can the Sparco K-Arrow+ be used for sim racing?Yes. Its silicone grip, external seams, and lightweight feel can work well for sim racing, although its FIA homologation and construction are intended primarily for kart competition. How should the silicone palm be cleaned?Gently hand wash the gloves in cool water with mild soap. Avoid scrubbing the silicone aggressively, and allow the gloves to air dry away from direct heat. How can I prevent premature grip wear?Use the gloves primarily for driving and avoid handling tools, rough bodywork, exposed fasteners, or abrasive surfaces. Store them only after they are fully dry.

Sparco K-Tide+ Kart Racing Gloves The Sparco K-Tide+ Kart Racing Gloves are premium competition gloves developed for drivers who demand exceptional steering-wheel grip, reduced vibration, and lasting comfort during demanding kart races. Approved to the FIA 8877-2022 karting standard, the K-Tide+ combines advanced protection with Sparco’s exclusive 3D HTX palm technology. The anatomically shaped palm and pre-curved fingers help the glove follow the natural position of the hand around the steering wheel. External seams reduce pressure against the fingers, while additional knuckle padding provides protection without limiting flexibility or steering precision. FIA 8877-2022 Approved for Karting The Sparco K-Tide+ is homologated to the FIA 8877-2022 standard for karting apparel. This current approval makes the gloves suitable for karting competitions that require compliant protective equipment. Drivers should always verify the exact equipment regulations of their championship, sanctioning body, or event before competition. Sparco 3D HTX Palm Technology The palm and fingers feature Sparco’s exclusive 3D HTX material. Its raised surface creates a secure connection with the steering wheel while helping absorb vibration transmitted through the kart chassis and steering system. By improving traction, the HTX surface allows the driver to maintain control without applying excessive grip pressure. This can help reduce strain in the hands and forearms during long races, repeated sessions, and rough track conditions. Vibration-Damping Performance Kart steering systems transmit substantial feedback directly into the driver’s hands. The shock-absorbing properties of the HTX palm help isolate some of these vibrations while preserving the steering feel needed to understand front-tire grip and chassis behavior. This combination of cushioning and feedback helps the driver remain comfortable and focused without creating excessive bulk between the hand and steering wheel. Pre-Curved Ergonomic Construction The K-Tide+ uses a pre-curved design that follows the natural shape of the hand while gripping the wheel. This reduces material bunching across the palm and fingers and limits the effort required to maintain a consistent driving position. The close anatomical fit also improves dexterity when making quick steering corrections or operating kart controls. External Seams for Improved Comfort Externally stitched finger seams move the stitching away from the inside of the glove. This creates a smoother interior and reduces pressure points during extended use. The external-seam construction also helps the fingers sit more naturally inside the glove, improving comfort and steering-wheel sensitivity. Additional Knuckle Padding Extra padding across the knuckles provides additional protection against impacts and contact commonly encountered in competitive karting. The padding is positioned to protect vulnerable areas while maintaining the flexibility needed for unrestricted hand movement. Touchscreen-Compatible Fingertips Touch-sensitive material on the thumb and index finger allows the driver to operate compatible phones, tablets, lap-timing devices, and other touchscreen equipment without removing the gloves. This feature is especially convenient between sessions when reviewing data, checking schedules, or communicating with the team. Straight-Cut Cuff and Elasticated Wrist A straight-cut cuff provides a clean, streamlined fit around the wrist. The elasticated wrist closure helps keep the glove securely positioned without requiring a bulky external adjustment strap. The flexible opening also allows the gloves to be put on or removed quickly before and after each session.
