Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR31313 is a full cast, vented disc brake rotor specifically designed for Hyundai Santa Fe vehicles. Its cast iron construction provides a balance of durability and effective heat dissipation, which helps reduce brake fade during extended use. The vented design allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, enhancing cooling performance and maintaining consistent braking efficiency. With a nominal thickness of 1.03 inches and a discard thickness of 0.96 inches, this rotor meets the necessary specifications to ensure safe and reliable operation. The rotor features five mounting bolt holes arranged on a 4.5 inch bolt circle diameter, compatible with the Hyundai Santa Fe's hub assembly. The non-directional brake surface allows for flexible installation without concern for rotor orientation.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors causing brake pulsation
• Addressing reduced braking performance due to rotor thickness below discard limits
• Resolving noise issues related to uneven rotor surfaces
• Improving heat dissipation to prevent brake fade during heavy braking
• Ensuring proper fitment for Hyundai Santa Fe brake systems

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify rotor thickness before installation to ensure it meets minimum discard specifications
• Clean rotor surface to remove any protective coatings or debris prior to mounting
• Torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications to avoid rotor warping
• Inspect brake pads and replace if worn to ensure optimal rotor performance
• Check hub surface for rust or debris to ensure proper rotor seating
