Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR901318-01 disc brake rotor is constructed from cast iron, a material known for its excellent thermal conductivity and durability. This rotor features a vented design that allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, helping to dissipate heat generated during braking and reduce the risk of brake fade. The full cast construction ensures structural integrity and consistent performance over time.

With a nominal thickness of 1.1 inches (28 mm) and a discard thickness of 1.02 inches (26 mm), this rotor provides clear service limits to maintain safe braking. The rust-resistant coating helps prevent corrosion, which is especially beneficial in humid or wet environments, preserving the rotor’s surface and extending its usable life.

Designed specifically for Acura MDX and TLX vehicles, this rotor has an outside diameter of 12.6 inches (320 mm) and a 5-bolt mounting pattern with a 4.5 inch (114.3 mm) bolt circle diameter. The non-directional brake surface allows for flexible installation without concern for rotor orientation.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors causing brake pulsation
• Addressing rotor corrosion and surface rust affecting braking efficiency
• Improving heat dissipation to reduce brake fade during heavy use
• Restoring proper rotor thickness to maintain safe braking performance
• Compatible upgrade for Acura MDX and TLX models requiring vented rotors

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor surface is clean and free of debris before installation. Verify the rotor thickness is within the discard limits to maintain safety. Use proper torque specifications for mounting bolts to avoid rotor warping. Since this rotor is non-directional, it can be installed on either side of the vehicle without concern for orientation. It is recommended to inspect brake pads and hardware during rotor replacement for optimal braking system performance.
