• Material: Full cast iron construction for strength and heat dissipation
• Vented rotor design to improve cooling and reduce brake fade
• Nominal thickness of 0.87 inches (22 mm) with discard thickness at 0.76 inches (19.4 mm)
• Overall height of 2.18 inches (55.3 mm) and outside diameter of 11.81 inches (300 mm)
• Five mounting bolt holes with a 4.41 inch (112 mm) bolt circle diameter
• Non-directional brake surface suitable for conventional rotor setups

Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR900980 disc brake rotor is constructed from full cast iron, providing a balance of durability and thermal management essential for braking systems. Its vented design allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, helping to dissipate heat generated during braking and reducing the risk of brake fade under demanding conditions. With a nominal thickness of 0.87 inches and a discard thickness of 0.76 inches, this rotor meets specifications for safe and effective brake pad contact. The rotor’s 11.81 inch diameter and 2.18 inch overall height ensure proper fitment and compatibility with the braking system of various Chrysler and Mercedes-Benz vehicles.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

This rotor is compatible with multiple Chrysler and Mercedes-Benz models, including but not limited to:

• Mercedes-Benz C32 AMG, C43 AMG, C55 AMG
• Mercedes-Benz CLK55 AMG, CLK500, CLK550
• Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG, E430
• Mercedes-Benz SLK32 AMG, SLK55 AMG
• Chrysler Crossfire

Designed for conventional rotor setups without ABS tone rings, the BR900980 is suitable for vehicles requiring a vented, non-directional rotor.

Common Issues Addressed by This Rotor

• Brake rotor warping or uneven wear causing vibration during braking
• Reduced braking efficiency due to overheating or brake fade
• Excessive rotor thickness loss beyond discard limits
• Noise or pulsation from worn or damaged rotors
• Compatibility with specific AMG and Chrysler Crossfire brake systems

Installation Notes and Tips

• Ensure rotor thickness is above discard thickness before installation
• Clean rotor surface to remove any protective coatings or debris
• Torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications for secure fitment
• Inspect brake pads and calipers for wear or damage during rotor replacement
• Perform a proper bed-in procedure after installation to optimize braking performance
