DuraGo BR901596 Disc Brake Rotor - Front

Durable Disc Brake Rotor for Mini Cooper Vehicles

The DuraGo BR901596 disc brake rotor is engineered to provide reliable braking performance for Mini Cooper models. Crafted from cast iron with a vented design, this rotor supports effective heat dissipation and consistent stopping power under various driving conditions.

• Material: Cast iron for durability and heat resistance
• Vented rotor design to improve cooling and reduce brake fade
• Nominal thickness of 0.87 inches (22 mm) with discard thickness at 0.8 inches (20.4 mm)
• Overall height of 1.78 inches (45.2 mm) ensuring proper fitment
• Outside diameter of 11.02 inches (280 mm) compatible with Mini Cooper brake systems
• Five mounting bolt holes with a 4.41 inch (112 mm) bolt circle diameter
• Non-directional brake surface for versatile installation
• Conventional rotor construction without ABS tone ring

Technical Details and Construction

The DuraGo BR901596 rotor is a full cast iron construction designed to meet the braking demands of Mini Cooper vehicles. Its vented design allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, helping to dissipate heat generated during braking. This reduces the risk of brake fade and maintains consistent braking performance. The rotor’s nominal thickness of 0.87 inches (22 mm) ensures structural integrity, while the discard thickness of 0.8 inches (20.4 mm) provides a clear wear limit for safe replacement. The rotor features a 5-bolt mounting pattern with a 4.41 inch (112 mm) bolt circle diameter, matching Mini Cooper specifications for direct fitment.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

This disc brake rotor is specifically compatible with Mini Cooper models requiring a 280 mm diameter vented rotor. It is designed for use in conventional brake systems without ABS tone rings and fits vehicles with a 5-bolt mounting configuration. The non-directional brake surface allows for flexible installation without concern for rotor orientation.

• Replaces worn or warped rotors on Mini Cooper vehicles
• Addresses brake noise and vibration issues caused by rotor damage
• Improves braking consistency and pedal feel
• Helps prevent brake fade during extended or heavy braking
• Restores proper rotor thickness for safe braking performance

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the DuraGo BR901596 rotor on a Mini Cooper, ensure the rotor surface is clean and free of any protective coatings or debris before mounting. Verify the rotor thickness is above the discard limit of 0.8 inches (20.4 mm) to maintain safety standards. Use proper torque specifications for the 5 mounting bolts to avoid rotor warping. Since this rotor does not include an ABS tone ring, confirm compatibility with the vehicle’s ABS system if applicable.
