• Five mounting bolt holes with a 4.5 inch (114.3 mm) bolt circle diameter
• Non-directional brake surface for versatile installation
• Overall height of 1.82 inches (46.3 mm) and center hole diameter of 2.44 inches (62.03 mm)
• Conventional rotor type without ABS tone ring

Durable Construction and Design Details

The DuraGo BR31208 rotor features a full cast iron construction, providing the necessary strength and thermal capacity to withstand repeated braking cycles. Its vented design allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, reducing heat buildup and minimizing the risk of brake fade. The rotor’s precise dimensions, including an outside diameter of 11.88 inches and a nominal thickness of 0.71 inches, ensure compatibility with Toyota RAV4 brake systems. This rotor does not include a rust-resistant coating, so proper maintenance is recommended to prevent corrosion over time.

Compatible Applications and Use Cases

This disc brake rotor is specifically compatible with Toyota RAV4 vehicles, making it a suitable replacement part for routine maintenance or brake system repairs. It addresses common brake issues such as:

• Uneven or worn rotor surfaces causing vibration during braking
• Reduced braking efficiency due to rotor warping or thinning
• Excessive brake noise linked to damaged rotors
• Overheating problems from solid rotors by providing vented design
• Brake pulsation caused by rotor surface irregularities

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the DuraGo BR31208 rotor on a Toyota RAV4, ensure the rotor surface is clean and free of debris before mounting. Since this rotor is non-directional, it can be installed on either side of the vehicle without concern for rotation direction. Verify that the mounting bolt holes align correctly with the vehicle’s hub assembly, and torque bolts to manufacturer specifications. It is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously to maintain optimal braking performance.

Quality Assurance and Warranty Information

DuraGo manufactures the BR31208 rotor to meet or exceed OEM specifications for fit, form, and function. While this rotor does not feature a rust-resistant coating, its cast iron construction provides reliable durability. Warranty coverage details should be confirmed with the product documentation or supplier, as they may vary by region or distributor.
