Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR901484 disc brake rotor is constructed from full cast iron, providing a solid and durable braking surface. Its vented design helps dissipate heat more effectively than solid rotors, reducing the risk of brake fade during extended use. This rotor features a conventional design without cross-drilling or slotting, which supports consistent braking performance and longer rotor life. The non-directional brake surface allows for flexible installation without concern for rotor orientation.

Specifically engineered for compatibility with Mazda 6 and Mazda CX-5 models, the BR901484 rotor matches OEM specifications including a 5-bolt mounting pattern with a 114.3 mm bolt circle diameter. The rotor’s nominal thickness of 1.1 inches (28 mm) and discard thickness of 1.02 inches (26 mm) ensure it meets safety and performance standards for replacement parts.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors causing brake pulsation
• Addressing rotor thickness below manufacturer discard limits
• Improving braking consistency on Mazda 6 and CX-5 vehicles
• Resolving noise or vibration issues related to rotor surface wear
• Upgrading from solid to vented rotors for better heat management

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 ABS system; this rotor does not include an ABS tone ring
• Torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications for safety
• Inspect brake pads and calipers during rotor replacement for optimal performance
