Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR5445 is a full cast, vented disc brake rotor designed specifically for Ford F-250 and F-350 models. Its cast iron construction provides the necessary durability and heat resistance required for heavy-duty braking applications. The vented design enhances airflow, helping to reduce brake fade during extended use. With a nominal thickness of 1.25 inches and a discard thickness of 1.18 inches, this rotor offers a balance between longevity and performance. The rotor features eight mounting bolt holes and a center hole diameter of 5.13 inches, ensuring proper fitment and secure installation. The non-directional brake surface allows for flexible mounting without concern for rotor orientation.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

• Ford F-250 trucks requiring replacement disc brake rotors
• Ford F-350 trucks needing vented rotors for improved heat dissipation
• Vehicles experiencing brake rotor wear or thickness below discard limits
• Trucks with conventional rotor setups requiring 8-bolt mounting

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify rotor thickness before installation to ensure it meets minimum discard thickness
• Clean mounting surfaces to prevent rotor runout and vibration
• Use proper torque specifications on mounting bolts to secure rotor
• Inspect brake pads and calipers during rotor replacement for optimal braking performance
• Ensure compatibility with ABS systems as this rotor does not include an ABS tone ring
