Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR900280-01 disc brake rotor is constructed from full cast iron, providing a solid and durable braking surface. Its vented design enhances airflow, which helps dissipate heat more effectively during braking, reducing the risk of brake fade on longer drives or in stop-and-go traffic. The rotor features a rust resistant coating that protects against corrosion, maintaining performance and appearance over time.

With a nominal thickness of 1.1 inches (28 mm) and a discard thickness of 1.04 inches (26.4 mm), this rotor meets OEM specifications for thickness and wear limits. The overall diameter of 11.81 inches (300 mm) and 5 mounting bolt holes with a 4.5 inch (114.3 mm) bolt circle diameter ensure proper fitment and secure installation. The non-directional brake surface allows for flexible rotor placement without concern for directional rotation.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

• Hyundai Forte, Forte5, Forte Koup
• Hyundai Optima, Rondo, Sonata
• Kia Sportage, Tucson, Veloster

This rotor is designed specifically for these models, providing a direct replacement that meets factory specifications.

Common Issues Addressed by This Rotor

• Brake rotor warping causing vibration during braking
• Excessive brake noise due to worn or damaged rotors
• Reduced braking efficiency from corroded or pitted rotor surfaces
• Brake fade from overheating during extended use
• Uneven brake pad wear caused by rotor surface irregularities

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor is installed on compatible Hyundai or Kia models as listed. Before installation, inspect the hub surface for rust or debris to ensure proper rotor seating. Torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications to avoid rotor distortion. Since this rotor does not include an ABS tone ring, verify ABS sensor compatibility if applicable. It is recommended to replace brake pads when installing new rotors for optimal braking performance.
