Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR901020 disc brake rotor is constructed from full cast iron, providing a balance of durability and effective heat management. Its vented design allows air to circulate between the rotor surfaces, helping to dissipate heat generated during braking and reducing the risk of brake fade under normal driving conditions. With a nominal thickness of 1.18 inches and a discard thickness of 1.12 inches, this rotor meets the specifications required for safe and efficient braking performance.

Measuring 12.8 inches in outside diameter and featuring five mounting bolt holes on a 4.5 inch bolt circle diameter, this rotor is engineered to fit specific Ford and Lincoln vehicles, including the Explorer, Flex, MKS, MKT, and Taurus models. The non-directional brake surface simplifies installation, allowing the rotor to be mounted in either orientation without affecting performance.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

• Ford Explorer brake rotor replacement
• Lincoln MKS disc brake rotor upgrade
• Ford Flex vented rotor installation
• Lincoln MKT brake system maintenance
• Ford Taurus rotor replacement part

Installation Notes and Tips

• Ensure rotor thickness is above discard thickness (1.12 inches) before installation
• Clean mounting surfaces to prevent rotor runout and vibration
• Use proper torque specifications for the five mounting bolts
• Check compatibility with vehicle ABS system as this rotor does not include an ABS tone ring
• Inspect brake pads and hardware during rotor replacement for optimal performance
