• Material: Full cast iron construction for strength and heat dissipation
• Vented rotor design to improve cooling and reduce brake fade
• Nominal thickness of 1.34 inches (34 mm) with discard thickness at 1.24 inches (31.5 mm)
• Outside diameter of 14 inches (355.7 mm) suitable for specific Audi models
• Five mounting bolt holes with a 4.41 inch (112 mm) bolt circle diameter
• Non-directional brake surface for versatile installation
• Conventional rotor type without ABS tone ring

Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR901404 disc brake rotor is constructed from full cast iron, providing a balance of durability and effective heat management. Its vented design allows air to circulate between the rotor surfaces, helping to dissipate heat generated during braking and reducing the risk of brake fade. With a nominal thickness of 1.34 inches and a discard thickness of 1.24 inches, this rotor maintains structural integrity throughout its service life. The 14-inch outside diameter and five mounting bolt holes with a 112 mm bolt circle diameter ensure proper fitment on compatible Audi vehicles.

This rotor is designed as a conventional, non-directional rotor without cross-drilling or slotting, which supports consistent braking performance without the need for specialized brake pads. The absence of an ABS tone ring means it is intended for vehicles where the ABS sensor reads from a separate component.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

This DuraGo disc brake rotor is compatible with the following Audi models:

• Audi A6
• Audi A6 Quattro
• Audi A7
• Audi A7 Quattro

It is ideal for drivers seeking a direct replacement rotor that meets factory specifications for these vehicles.

Common Issues Addressed by This Rotor

• Brake rotor warping causing vibration during braking
• Reduced braking efficiency due to worn or thin rotors
• Overheating and brake fade from insufficient heat dissipation
• Uneven brake pad wear linked to rotor surface irregularities
• Noise and pulsation caused by damaged or compromised rotors

Installation Notes and Tips

• Ensure rotor thickness is above discard thickness before installation
• Clean rotor surface to remove any protective coatings or debris
• Check compatibility with vehicle’s mounting bolt pattern and diameter
• Inspect brake pads and replace if worn to ensure optimal performance
• Torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications to avoid rotor damage
