This rotor features a full cast design, which contributes to its strength and longevity. The vented rotor type allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, helping to reduce heat buildup during braking and maintain consistent performance. A rust-resistant coating is applied to the rotor surface to minimize corrosion and extend service life, especially in harsh weather conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith an outside diameter of 12.99 inches (330 mm) and a nominal thickness of 1.19 inches (30.2 mm), this rotor meets OEM specifications for a precise fit. The discard thickness is 1.1 inches (28 mm), indicating when the rotor should be replaced to maintain safe braking. The rotor includes six mounting bolt holes with a diameter of 0.63 inches (16 mm) and a bolt circle diameter of 5.5 inches (139.7 mm), ensuring compatibility with specified GM vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Vehicles and Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis disc brake rotor is compatible with a variety of Chevrolet, GMC, and Cadillac models, including:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChevrolet Silverado 1500, Silverado 1500 Classic, Silverado 1500 LD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGMC Sierra 1500, Sierra 1500 Classic, Sierra 1500 Limited\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChevrolet Avalanche, Suburban 1500, Tahoe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGMC Yukon, Yukon XL, Yukon XL 1500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChevrolet Express 1500, Savana 1500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCadillac XTS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Issues Addressed by This Rotor\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake pulsation or vibration during stopping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcessive brake noise or squealing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced braking efficiency due to rotor wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorrosion or rust buildup on rotor surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverheating causing brake fade on heavy-duty vehicles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen installing the DuraGo BR55097-03 rotor, ensure the rotor surface is clean and free of any contaminants before mounting. Verify that the rotor thickness is above the discard thickness specification of 1.1 inches (28 mm) to maintain safe braking performance. This rotor is non-directional, allowing installation on either side of the vehicle without concern for orientation. Use proper torque specifications for the six mounting bolts to secure the rotor firmly. It is recommended to inspect brake pads and other braking components during installation for optimal system performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuraGo manufactures this rotor to meet or exceed OEM standards for fit, form, and function.
