Technical Details and Construction

This DuraGo disc brake rotor features a solid, non-vented design constructed from cast iron, which offers excellent heat retention and dissipation during braking. The full cast construction provides structural integrity, while the rust-resistant coating helps extend the rotor's service life by minimizing corrosion. The rotor includes a drum-in-hat design, integrating the parking brake drum within the rotor assembly, suitable for vehicles equipped with drum parking brakes.

With an outside diameter of 10.31 inches (262 mm) and an overall height of 2.5 inches (63.6 mm), this rotor fits precisely on the mounting bolt circle diameter of 4.5 inches (114.3 mm) with five mounting bolt holes. The center hole diameter measures 2.99 inches (76 mm), ensuring proper alignment on the hub. The nominal thickness of 0.39 inches (10 mm) and discard thickness of 0.33 inches (8.4 mm) provide clear service limits for maintenance.

Compatible Kia Models and Applications

This DuraGo BR900770-01 disc brake rotor is compatible with the following Kia vehicles:

• Kia Forte
• Kia Forte5
• Kia Forte Koup
• Kia Soul

It is designed specifically for models requiring a solid, drum-in-hat type rotor with five mounting bolts and no ABS tone ring.

Common Issues Addressed by This Rotor

• Brake pulsation or vibration due to warped rotors
• Reduced braking efficiency from worn or thin rotors
• Corrosion and rust buildup affecting rotor surface
• Uneven brake pad wear caused by damaged rotors
• Noise or squealing from rotor surface imperfections

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor surface and hub are clean and free of debris before installation. Verify the rotor thickness is above the discard limit of 0.33 inches (8.4 mm) to maintain safe braking performance. Use proper torque specifications for the five mounting bolts to avoid rotor warping. This rotor does not include an ABS tone ring, so confirm compatibility with your vehicle's ABS system.
