Detailed Product Description

This vented disc brake rotor features a smooth surface type that promotes even pad wear and effective braking response. The vented design with straight vanes enhances heat dissipation during braking, reducing the risk of rotor warping under normal driving conditions. The floating disc mounting system allows for slight movement to accommodate thermal expansion and contraction, improving rotor longevity. With a nominal thickness of 1.102 inches and a discard thickness of 1.043 inches, this rotor provides a clear service limit to maintain safe braking performance. The rotor’s dimensions, including a 13.386-inch outside diameter and 1.724-inch overall height, are engineered to match factory specifications for the specified vehicle models.

Common Applications and Issues Addressed

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors on Chrysler 200, Dodge Avenger, and Dodge Caliber
• Resolves brake pulsation caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Addresses reduced braking efficiency due to rotor thickness below discard limits
• Improves heat dissipation to prevent brake fade during extended use
• Restores proper rotor fitment and alignment for safe braking operation

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify rotor thickness before installation to ensure it meets minimum discard thickness
• Clean rotor surface and hub mounting area to prevent uneven contact
• Torque lug nuts to manufacturer specifications to avoid rotor distortion
• Inspect brake pads and replace if worn to ensure optimal rotor performance
• Check for ABS tone ring compatibility; this rotor does not include an ABS tone ring
