This product line focuses on providing vented rotors with smooth surfaces that promote even pad wear and effective heat dissipation. The 121.61000 rotor is part of this line, delivering consistent braking performance for Ford Mustang, Mercury Cougar, and Montego vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details and Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Centric disc brake rotor features a vented design with straight vanes to enhance cooling during braking. The rotor’s nominal thickness is 0.939 inches (23.860 mm), with a discard thickness of 0.875 inches (22.230 mm), ensuring safe replacement intervals. The rotor mounts via a hub and rotor disc mounting system, with a mounting bolt hole circle diameter of 4.500 inches (114.300 mm) and 5 lug holes. The smooth surface type supports consistent brake pad contact, reducing noise and vibration. Note that this rotor does not include bearings or an ABS tone ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Applications and Problem Solving\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement for worn or warped rotors causing brake pulsation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddressing rotor thickness below manufacturer discard limits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproving braking performance on Ford Mustang, Mercury Cougar, and Montego\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResolving uneven brake pad wear due to rotor surface issues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpgrading to vented rotors for better heat dissipation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnsure the rotor thickness is measured before installation to confirm it meets the nominal thickness of 0.939 inches. Clean the rotor surface to remove any protective coatings or debris. Verify the mounting bolt hole circle diameter and stud thread diameter match your vehicle specifications. Since bearings and seals are not included, inspect and replace these components separately if necessary. Proper torque specifications should be followed when tightening lug nuts to avoid rotor warping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCentric’s C-TEK Standard Disc Brake Rotors are manufactured to meet OEM standards for fit, form, and function.
