• Outside diameter of 13.78 inches (350 mm) for precise fitment
• Mounting bolt pattern: 6 holes with 5.5 inch (139.7 mm) bolt circle diameter
• Nominal thickness of 0.79 inches (20 mm) with discard thickness at 0.71 inches (18 mm)
• Non-directional brake surface for versatile installation

Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR901118 disc brake rotor is constructed from full cast iron, providing a durable and heat-resistant braking surface. Its vented design allows air to flow between the rotor faces, helping to dissipate heat generated during braking and reducing the risk of brake fade under heavy use. This rotor features a drum-in-hat design, integrating a parking brake drum within the rotor hat, which is compatible with the rear braking system of INFINITI Armada, QX56, and QX80, as well as Nissan models with similar specifications.

With an outside diameter of 13.78 inches (350 mm) and a nominal thickness of 0.79 inches (20 mm), the BR901118 meets OEM specifications for fit and function. The rotor includes six mounting bolt holes arranged on a 5.5 inch (139.7 mm) bolt circle diameter, ensuring proper alignment and secure installation. The center hole diameter measures 3.23 inches (82 mm), matching the hub size for these vehicles. This rotor does not include an ABS tone ring and features a non-directional braking surface, allowing installation on either side of the vehicle.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors causing brake pulsation or noise
• Addressing reduced braking efficiency due to rotor thickness below discard limits
• Resolving uneven brake pad wear linked to rotor surface irregularities
• Upgrading to a vented rotor design for improved heat management
• Restoring proper parking brake function with integrated drum-in-hat design

Installation Notes and Tips

• Ensure rotor thickness is above discard thickness (0.71 inches) before installation
• Clean mounting surfaces and hub to prevent rotor runout
• Torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications for secure fitment
• 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
