Durable Construction and Design Features

The DuraGo BR900496-01 rotor is constructed from full cast iron, a material known for its excellent heat absorption and dissipation properties, which helps maintain braking efficiency during extended use. Its vented design allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, reducing heat buildup and minimizing brake fade. The rust-resistant coating protects the rotor surface from corrosion, ensuring longer service life and reliable performance. With a nominal thickness of 0.94 inches and a discard thickness of 0.87 inches, this rotor meets OEM specifications for safe and effective braking.

Compatible Vehicle Models and Fitment Details

This disc brake rotor is compatible with a range of Toyota, Subaru, and Scion vehicles, including the Toyota 86, GR86, and FR-S, as well as Subaru models such as the BRZ, WRX, Forester, Crosstrek, Impreza, Legacy, Outback, Baja, and XV Crosstrek. The rotor features five mounting bolt holes with a 3.94 inch bolt circle diameter, ensuring proper fitment for these vehicles. The non-directional brake surface allows for flexible installation without concern for rotor orientation.

Common Issues Addressed by This Rotor

• Brake rotor warping or uneven wear causing vibration during braking
• Reduced braking performance due to rust or corrosion on rotor surfaces
• Brake fade from excessive heat buildup during aggressive or prolonged braking
• Noise or pulsation caused by worn or damaged rotors
• Restoring OEM braking feel and stopping power on compatible Toyota, Subaru, and Scion models

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the DuraGo BR900496-01 rotor, ensure the rotor thickness is above the discard thickness of 0.87 inches to maintain safe braking performance. Clean the rotor surface to remove any protective coatings or contaminants before installation. Verify that the mounting bolt holes align correctly with the vehicle hub and torque bolts to manufacturer specifications. Since this rotor is non-directional, it can be installed on either side without concern for rotation direction.
