• ACP alloyed-carbon performance castings for thermal stability and strength under severe duty loads

Product Line Details

The Bendix Severe Duty Rotor SDR line is aimed at vehicles that see repeated stops, heavier service cycles, and extended brake temperatures. For buyers searching for a rear brake rotor for a 2002-2010 Ford Explorer, a rear rotor for a 2007-2010 Ford Explorer Sport Trac, or a rear rotor for a 2002-2010 Mercury Mountaineer, SDR5358 provides a direct application match within this severe duty rotor family.

What It Helps Address

• Brake vibration caused by rotor runout or uneven machining
• Heat-related rotor stress during repeated stop-and-go use
• Brake fade concerns in fleet and pursuit duty cycles
• Rotor wear from demanding rear brake service
• Fitment issues when replacing an OE-style rear disc brake rotor

Installation Notes

Verify rear axle application and confirm rotor dimensions against the removed part before installation. Clean hub mating surfaces thoroughly to help maintain rotor seating accuracy, and inspect pads, calipers, and hardware condition during brake service. For best results, replace rotors in axle pairs and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s service procedures.

Quality Assurance
