Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR901074 disc brake rotor is constructed from full cast iron, providing a solid and durable braking surface. Its vented design enhances airflow to reduce heat buildup during braking, which helps maintain consistent stopping power and reduces the risk of rotor warping. With a nominal thickness of 0.87 inches and a discard thickness of 0.75 inches, this rotor ensures proper wear limits are maintained for safe operation. The rotor features a conventional design with five mounting bolt holes arranged on a 4.41 inch (112 mm) bolt circle diameter, compatible with Volkswagen Bora and Jetta models. The non-directional brake surface allows for flexible installation without concern for rotor orientation.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

This disc brake rotor is compatible with the following Volkswagen models:

• Volkswagen Bora
• Volkswagen Jetta

It is designed to replace worn or damaged rotors, restoring braking efficiency and safety.

Common Issues Addressed by This Rotor

• Brake pulsation caused by warped rotors
• Reduced braking performance due to worn rotor thickness
• Excessive brake noise from uneven rotor surfaces
• Overheating and brake fade during extended use
• Corrosion-related rotor surface degradation (note: this rotor does not have rust-resistant coating)

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the DuraGo BR901074 rotor, ensure the mounting surface is clean and free of debris. Verify rotor thickness before installation to confirm it meets minimum specifications. Since this rotor is non-directional, it can be installed on either side without concern for rotation direction. Use proper torque specifications for the five mounting bolts to avoid rotor distortion. This rotor does not include an ABS tone ring, so confirm compatibility with your vehicle's ABS system.
