Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR54085 disc brake rotor is constructed from full cast iron, providing a solid and durable braking surface. Its vented design helps reduce heat buildup during braking, which can improve rotor longevity and maintain consistent stopping power. This rotor features a drum-in-hat design, integrating the drum brake surface into the rotor hat, which is common for rear brake assemblies on certain Ford trucks and vans.

With an outside diameter of 12.83 inches and a nominal thickness of 1.18 inches, this rotor fits specific Ford E-350 Club Wagon, E-350 Econoline, E-350 Super Duty, and F-150 models. The rotor includes 8 mounting bolt holes with a bolt circle diameter of 5.71 inches, ensuring proper fitment and secure installation. The non-directional brake surface allows for flexible rotor placement without concern for rotation direction.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors causing brake pulsation
• Addressing reduced braking efficiency due to rotor thickness below discard limits
• Resolving noise or vibration issues linked to damaged or uneven rotors
• Upgrading to a vented rotor for better heat management in heavy-duty use
• Ensuring compatibility with Ford E-350 and F-150 brake systems

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify rotor dimensions and bolt pattern against vehicle specifications before installation
• Inspect brake pads and hardware for wear and replace as necessary during rotor installation
• Ensure proper torque on mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications
• Clean rotor surface with brake cleaner to remove any protective coating or contaminants
• Check for ABS sensor clearance as this rotor does not include an ABS tone ring
