Product Specifications and Features

This disc brake rotor features a vented design with 50 straight vanes, which helps dissipate heat generated during braking to reduce the risk of brake fade. The rotor has a nominal thickness of 0.945 inches (24.000 mm) and a discard thickness of 0.866 inches (22.000 mm), indicating when replacement is necessary to maintain safe braking performance. The overall height measures 1.902 inches (48.300 mm), and the outside diameter is 11.567 inches (293.800 mm), ensuring compatibility with the Subaru Forester's braking system. The rotor mounts using a floating disc mounting style and includes 5 lug holes with a diameter of 0.512 inches (13.000 mm) each. The smooth surface type promotes even pad wear and consistent braking response.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors causing brake pulsation
• Addressing reduced braking efficiency due to rotor thickness below discard limits
• Resolving overheating issues with vented rotor design for better heat dissipation
• Eliminating noise and vibration caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Maintaining proper fitment and safety for Subaru Forester brake systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor thickness is measured before installation to confirm it meets or exceeds the nominal thickness of 0.945 inches (24.000 mm). Clean the rotor surface to remove any protective coatings or debris before mounting. Verify the 5-lug hole pattern and floating disc mounting style match the vehicle specifications. Use proper torque settings on lug nuts to avoid rotor warping. This rotor does not include bearings or an ABS tone ring, so verify compatibility with your vehicle's braking components.
