Product Line Details: Centric GCX Elemental Protection

The Centric GCX Elemental Protection Disc Brake Rotors - Full Coating line focuses on providing rotors with a complete protective coating to resist rust and corrosion. This full coating extends the rotor's service life and maintains consistent braking performance, especially in environments prone to moisture and road salt. The coated hat and disc surfaces help reduce maintenance needs and preserve the rotor's structural integrity over time.

Technical Specifications and Features

This disc brake rotor is a solid type with a smooth surface finish, designed for consistent brake pad contact and reliable stopping power. The rotor measures 240.3 mm in outside diameter and has a nominal thickness of 11.000 mm, with a discard thickness of 9.200 mm to indicate when replacement is necessary. The rotor features a floating disc mounting system and includes 4 stud/lug holes with a diameter of 13.3 mm, ensuring proper fitment on compatible Fiat 500 and Ram 700 vehicles. The center hole diameter is 59.000 mm, and the mounting bolt hole circle diameter is 98.000 mm. The overall height of the rotor is 40.000 mm, and it weighs approximately 7.8 lbs (3.55 kg).

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors on Fiat 500 and Ram 700
• Addresses rotor corrosion and rust issues with full coating
• Improves braking consistency by maintaining smooth surface contact
• Prevents premature rotor failure due to environmental exposure
• Restores proper rotor thickness for safe braking performance

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor thickness is above the discard thickness of 9.200 mm before installation. Clean the hub surface to prevent uneven rotor mounting. Use proper torque specifications for the 4 lug nuts to avoid rotor warping. Since this rotor does not include bearings or an ABS tone ring, verify compatibility with your vehicle’s braking system. The floating disc mounting requires correct alignment for optimal performance.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Centric brake rotors are manufactured to meet or exceed OEM specifications for fit, form, and function. The full coating process enhances corrosion resistance, contributing to longer rotor life. While specific warranty details are not provided here, Centric typically offers limited warranties covering defects in materials and workmanship. Always consult product documentation or manufacturer resources for exact warranty terms.
