Details on Centric Premium Disc Brake Rotors

The Centric Premium Disc Brake Rotors product line focuses on delivering rotors that meet or exceed OEM specifications for fit, form, and function. This line emphasizes quality materials and precise manufacturing processes to provide rotors that maintain consistent thickness and surface smoothness, which are critical for effective braking and rotor longevity. The coated hat finish on the 120.35181 rotor helps protect against rust and corrosion, extending the service life of the rotor especially in demanding driving conditions.

Technical Specifications and Features

This rotor is a solid type, designed without venting, which suits specific braking system requirements on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter series. The smooth surface type ensures even pad contact and reduces noise and vibration during braking. The floating disc mounting design allows for slight movement to accommodate thermal expansion and improve braking consistency. The rotor includes six stud/lug holes with precise diameters and spacing to match Sprinter wheel hubs accurately. Note that this rotor does not include ABS tone rings or bearings.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors on Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 1500, 2500, 3500, and 3500XD
• Addresses brake pulsation caused by uneven rotor thickness
• Solves corrosion-related rotor surface degradation with coated hat finish
• Restores proper rotor thickness to maintain braking efficiency
• Eliminates noise and vibration from damaged or uneven rotors

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify rotor thickness before installation; discard if below 0.630 inches (16.000 mm)
• Ensure mounting surfaces are clean and free of debris for proper fitment
• Use correct torque specifications on lug nuts to avoid rotor warping
• Check compatibility with vehicle ABS system as this rotor does not include an ABS tone ring
• Inspect brake pads and replace if worn to ensure optimal rotor performance

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Centric Premium Disc Brake Rotors are manufactured to meet strict quality standards, ensuring consistent performance and durability. While specific warranty details for part number 120.35181 should be confirmed with the supplier or manufacturer, Centric typically offers coverage against defects in materials and workmanship.
