Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR901226 disc brake rotor is constructed from full cast iron, providing a balance of durability and effective heat management. Its vented design allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, reducing the risk of brake fade during extended use. The cross-drilled holes further enhance cooling by allowing heat and gases to escape, which helps maintain consistent braking performance. This rotor is designed without a rust-resistant coating, so proper maintenance is recommended to prevent corrosion over time.

With an outside diameter of 13.19 inches and a nominal thickness of 1.26 inches, this rotor fits Mercedes-Benz CL550, S400, and S550 models requiring part number BR901226. The five mounting bolt holes and 4.41 inch bolt circle diameter ensure secure and precise installation. The non-directional brake surface allows for flexible rotor placement without concern for rotation direction.

Common Applications and Issues Addressed

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors causing brake pulsation
• Improves braking consistency on Mercedes-Benz CL550, S400, and S550
• Addresses overheating issues during heavy braking with vented design
• Restores proper rotor thickness to maintain braking efficiency
• Eliminates noise and vibration caused by damaged or uneven rotors

Installation Notes and Tips

• Ensure rotor thickness is above discard thickness (1.18 inches) before installation
• Clean mounting surface to prevent rotor misalignment
• Torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications for secure fit
• Check brake pads for wear and replace if necessary during rotor installation
• Perform a bed-in procedure after installation to optimize braking performance
