• Vented rotor design to improve cooling and reduce brake fade
• Drum-in-hat type rotor with integrated parking brake drum
• Non-directional brake surface for versatile installation
• Eight mounting bolt holes with precise dimensions for secure fitment
• Nominal thickness of 1.65 inches (42 mm) with discard thickness at 1.59 inches (40.4 mm)
• Outside diameter of 13.58 inches (345 mm) and overall height of 4.59 inches (116.5 mm)

Durable Cast Iron Construction and Design Features

The DuraGo BR900688 rotor is made from full cast iron, a material known for its ability to withstand high temperatures and resist warping. Its vented design allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, helping to dissipate heat generated during braking. This reduces the risk of brake fade and maintains consistent stopping power. The drum-in-hat construction integrates a parking brake drum, making it suitable for vehicles that use this combined braking system. The rotor’s non-directional surface allows for flexible installation without concern for rotation direction.

Compatible Vehicles and Fitment Details

This rotor is compatible with various vehicle makes and models that require a 13.58-inch (345 mm) vented disc brake rotor with a drum-in-hat design. The part number BR900688 ensures precise fitment with eight mounting bolt holes spaced on a 5.71-inch (145 mm) bolt circle diameter. The center hole diameter measures 4.85 inches (123.3 mm), and mounting bolt holes are 0.51 inches (13 mm) in diameter. This rotor is suitable for vehicles equipped with drum-in-hat parking brake systems and vented rotors, commonly found on certain trucks and SUVs.

Common Issues Addressed by DuraGo BR900688 Rotor

• Brake rotor warping or uneven wear causing vibration during braking
• Reduced braking efficiency due to overheating or brake fade
• Worn or damaged parking brake drum integrated in rotor
• Corrosion or surface damage affecting rotor performance (note: this rotor does not have rust-resistant coating)
• Incompatibility with vehicles requiring vented, drum-in-hat rotors

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the DuraGo BR900688 rotor, ensure the mounting surface is clean and free of debris to promote proper seating. Verify that the rotor thickness is within nominal specifications (1.65 inches) and above discard thickness (1.59 inches) before installation. Since this rotor does not include an ABS tone ring, confirm compatibility with your vehicle’s ABS system. Use proper torque specifications on the eight mounting bolts to secure the rotor firmly. It is recommended to inspect brake pads and hardware during installation for optimal braking performance.

Quality Assurance and Warranty Information

DuraGo manufactures the BR900688 rotor to meet or exceed OEM standards for material and construction. While this rotor does not feature a rust-resistant coating, its full cast iron construction provides reliable durability under normal operating conditions. Warranty coverage details should be confirmed with the point of purchase or manufacturer documentation.
