Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR901408 is a full cast, vented disc brake rotor designed specifically for Cadillac ATS and CT4 vehicles. Its cast iron material provides a balance of strength and heat resistance, essential for maintaining braking efficiency. The vented construction allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, reducing heat buildup during braking and helping to prevent warping. With a nominal thickness of 1.18 inches and a discard thickness of 1.06 inches, this rotor meets precise specifications to ensure safe and effective braking performance. The rotor features a 12.64-inch outside diameter and five mounting bolt holes arranged on a 4.53-inch bolt circle diameter, compatible with the specified Cadillac models. The non-directional brake surface simplifies installation without concern for rotor orientation.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors on Cadillac ATS and CT4
• Addresses brake pulsation caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Improves braking consistency by restoring proper rotor thickness
• Helps reduce brake fade during extended or heavy braking
• Suitable for vehicles experiencing rotor corrosion or surface damage

Installation Notes and Tips

• Ensure rotor thickness is above discard thickness before installation
• Clean mounting surface to prevent rotor runout
• Torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications
• Inspect brake pads for wear and replace if necessary
• Perform a bed-in procedure after installation for optimal performance
