About the ATE Coated Single Pack Rotor Product Line

The ATE Coated Single Pack Rotor line focuses on providing rotors with protective coatings to extend service life and maintain braking efficiency. This product line includes rotors with vented designs and full cast construction, such as the SP24197, which are tailored to meet the demands of vehicles like the BMW 128i, 328i, 328xi, 325i, and 325xi.

Detailed Product Description

The SP24197 disc brake rotor is constructed from durable metal with a full cast design, ensuring consistent performance under various driving conditions. Its vented rotor type enhances heat dissipation, reducing the risk of brake fade during extended use. The non-directional disc finish allows for flexible installation without concern for rotor orientation. Additionally, the rust-resistant coating helps protect the rotor surface from corrosion, which is particularly beneficial in environments prone to moisture and road salt exposure. With an outside diameter of 300 mm and a nominal thickness of 24 mm, this rotor meets the precise specifications required for proper fitment and function on compatible BMW models.

Compatible Vehicles and Common Applications

• Replacement rotor for BMW 128i brake system maintenance
• Suitable for BMW 328i and 328xi models requiring vented rotors
• Used in BMW 325i and 325xi for restoring braking performance
• Addresses issues such as rotor warping and uneven wear
• Helps resolve brake noise and vibration related to rotor surface defects

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the ATE Coated Single Pack Rotor SP24197, ensure the rotor surface is clean and free of debris before mounting. The non-directional finish allows installation on either side, simplifying the process. Verify bolt hole alignment with the vehicle hub using the 5 mm bolt hole diameter specification. It is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously to maintain optimal braking performance. Proper torque specifications should be followed to avoid rotor distortion.
