Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR901142 is a full cast disc brake rotor constructed from cast iron, providing a balance of durability and thermal management. Its vented design allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, reducing heat buildup during braking and helping to maintain consistent stopping power. With a nominal thickness of 1.26 inches and a discard thickness of 1.18 inches, this rotor meets the specifications required for safe and effective brake system operation. The rotor features a 13.96-inch outside diameter and five mounting bolt holes arranged on a 4.25-inch bolt circle diameter, ensuring proper fitment on compatible Jaguar models.

Compatible Jaguar Models

This rotor is compatible with a range of Jaguar vehicles, including the F-Type, S-Type, Super V8, Vanden Plas, XF, XJ, XJR, XK, and XKR. The part number BR901142 is specifically designed to meet the braking requirements of these models, providing a direct replacement for original equipment rotors.

Common Applications and Problem Resolution

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors causing brake pulsation
• Addressing reduced braking performance due to rotor thickness below discard limits
• Eliminating noise and vibration from uneven rotor surfaces
• Upgrading to vented rotors for improved heat dissipation in high-demand driving
• Ensuring proper rotor fitment for Jaguar brake systems requiring 5-bolt mounting

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify rotor thickness before installation to ensure it meets minimum discard thickness
• Clean mounting surfaces to prevent rotor runout and vibration
• Use proper torque specifications on mounting bolts to avoid rotor damage
• Inspect brake pads and replace if worn to maintain optimal braking performance
• Check for compatibility with ABS systems; this rotor does not include an ABS tone ring

Quality Assurance and Warranty

DuraGo disc brake rotors are manufactured to meet industry standards for material quality and dimensional accuracy. While this product does not feature a rust-resistant coating, the cast iron construction provides reliable performance under normal operating conditions. Warranty coverage details should be confirmed with the point of purchase or manufacturer documentation.
