• Rust-resistant coating to protect against corrosion
• Nominal thickness of 1.54 inches (39 mm) with discard thickness at 1.47 inches (37.4 mm)
• Outside diameter of 15.35 inches (390 mm) for precise fitment
• Drum-in-hat type rotor with 10 mounting bolt holes
• Non-directional brake surface for versatile installation

Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR900359-01 disc brake rotor is engineered for the Ford F-350 Super Duty, providing a reliable braking surface that meets OEM specifications. Its full cast iron construction offers excellent thermal conductivity and durability, essential for heavy-duty applications. The vented design enhances airflow, helping to dissipate heat more effectively during braking, which reduces the risk of rotor warping and brake fade. The rotor features a rust-resistant coating that helps maintain its appearance and structural integrity over time, especially in harsh weather conditions.

With a nominal thickness of 1.54 inches and a discard thickness of 1.47 inches, this rotor maintains optimal performance throughout its service life. The drum-in-hat design integrates a drum brake surface for the parking brake, making it compatible with the factory braking system of the Ford F-350 Super Duty. The 10 mounting bolt holes and precise dimensions ensure a secure and accurate fit.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors causing brake pulsation
• Addressing rotor corrosion and surface rust affecting braking efficiency
• Improving heat dissipation to reduce brake fade during heavy towing or hauling
• Restoring proper rotor thickness to maintain safe braking distances
• Ensuring compatibility with drum-in-hat parking brake systems on Ford F-350 Super Duty

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the DuraGo BR900359-01 rotor on a Ford F-350 Super Duty, ensure the rotor surface is clean and free of any protective coatings before mounting. Verify that the rotor thickness is within the specified nominal and discard limits to maintain safety and performance. Use proper torque specifications for the 10 mounting bolts to avoid rotor distortion. Since this rotor is non-directional, it can be installed on either side of the vehicle without concern for directional rotation.
