Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR54126 disc brake rotor is a full cast iron rotor designed specifically for compatibility with Ford and Mercury vehicles including the Five Hundred, Freestyle, Montego, Sable, Taurus, and Taurus X models. Its vented design helps reduce heat buildup during braking, which can improve rotor longevity and maintain consistent brake performance under normal driving conditions. The rotor features a nominal thickness of 1.1 inches (28 mm) and a discard thickness of 1.04 inches (26.5 mm), ensuring it meets OEM specifications for safe replacement. With an outside diameter of 12.41 inches (315.2 mm) and five mounting bolt holes arranged on a 4.5 inch (114.3 mm) bolt circle, this rotor fits securely and aligns properly with the vehicle’s braking system. The non-directional brake surface allows for flexible installation without concern for rotor orientation.

Common Applications and Issues Addressed

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors causing brake pulsation
• Restores braking efficiency on Ford Five Hundred and Mercury Montego models
• Addresses rotor thickness below manufacturer discard limits
• Improves heat dissipation to reduce brake fade during extended use
• Suitable for vehicles experiencing uneven brake pad wear or noise

Installation Notes and Tips

• Ensure rotor thickness is above discard thickness before installation
• Clean mounting surface to prevent rotor runout and vibration
• Torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications for secure fit
• Check compatibility with ABS sensors as this rotor does not include an ABS tone ring
• Inspect brake pads and replace if worn to optimize braking performance
