Detailed Product Description

This Centric Premium Disc Brake Rotor 120.48015 is a solid rotor designed with a smooth braking surface to provide consistent stopping power. The coated hat finish helps resist corrosion, extending the rotor's service life. It features a 5-lug bolt pattern with a 114.3 mm bolt circle diameter, making it compatible with various vehicle models that require these specifications. The rotor's nominal thickness of 11.9 mm ensures structural integrity, while the discard thickness of 11.0 mm indicates the minimum safe thickness before replacement is necessary. The floating mounting type allows for slight movement to reduce stress and improve brake system performance.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

This rotor is compatible with vehicles that use a 5-lug wheel pattern with a 114.3 mm bolt circle diameter and a 62 mm center hole diameter. Commonly found on certain mid-size sedans and SUVs, this rotor suits applications where a solid, smooth rotor is specified. Always verify fitment with your vehicle's make and model to ensure compatibility.

Common Issues Addressed by This Rotor

• Brake pulsation caused by uneven rotor wear
• Reduced braking efficiency due to rotor surface corrosion
• Excessive brake noise from worn or warped rotors
• Vibration during braking from rotor thickness below discard limit
• Brake fade from overheating in solid rotor applications

Installation Notes and Tips

• Ensure rotor thickness is above discard thickness (11.0 mm) before installation
• Clean mounting surfaces to prevent rotor runout
• Use proper torque specifications for the 5-lug bolts
• Check compatibility with ABS sensors as this rotor does not include an ABS tone ring
• Inspect brake pads for wear and replace if necessary during rotor installation
