Durable Cast Iron Disc Brake Rotor for Select GM Vehicles

The DuraGo BR901700 disc brake rotor is engineered to provide reliable braking performance for a range of Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, and GMC models. Designed with a full cast construction and vented design, this rotor offers consistent heat dissipation and durability for everyday driving conditions.

• Material: Cast iron for strength and heat resistance
• Vented rotor design to improve cooling and reduce brake fade
• Nominal thickness of 0.91 inches (23 mm) with discard thickness at 0.79 inches (20 mm)
• Outside diameter of 12.4 inches (315 mm) suitable for specific GM vehicles
• 6 mounting bolt holes with a 4.72 inch (120 mm) bolt circle diameter
• Non-directional brake surface for versatile installation
• Conventional rotor type without ABS tone ring

Technical Details and Construction

The BR901700 rotor features a full cast iron construction, providing a solid and durable braking surface. Its vented design allows air to flow between the rotor faces, helping to dissipate heat generated during braking and reducing the risk of warping. With an overall height of 1.89 inches (48 mm) and a center hole diameter of 2.66 inches (67.5 mm), this rotor is engineered to meet the exact specifications required for proper fitment and performance. The absence of cross-drilled or slotted features means it is optimized for standard braking applications without the need for specialized brake pads.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

This DuraGo disc brake rotor is compatible with the following GM vehicles:

• Buick Enclave
• Cadillac XT5 and XT6
• Chevrolet Acadia, Blazer, Equinox EV, OPTIQ, Traverse, Traverse Limited
• GMC Acadia

Part number BR901700 is designed specifically for these models, ensuring proper fit and reliable braking performance.

Common Issues Addressed by This Rotor

• Brake rotor warping or uneven wear causing vibration during braking
• Reduced braking efficiency due to worn or thin rotors
• Overheating and brake fade from insufficient heat dissipation
• Noise or pulsation caused by damaged or out-of-spec rotors
• Compatibility issues with OEM brake components on listed GM models

Installation Notes and Tips

• Ensure rotor thickness is within discard limits before installation
• Clean mounting surfaces to prevent rotor runout and vibration
• Use proper torque specifications on mounting bolts (6 bolts, 0.63 inch/16 mm diameter)
• Check brake pads for wear and replace if necessary to maintain optimal braking
• Verify rotor orientation as non-directional for flexible installation
