DuraGo BR901708 Disc Brake Rotor - Rear

Overview of DuraGo BR901708 Disc Brake Rotor

The DuraGo BR901708 is a cast iron vented disc brake rotor designed for select Jaguar models. Engineered to meet the specific braking needs of vehicles like the Jaguar XF, XFR, and XKR series, this rotor offers reliable performance and durability for your braking system.

• Material: Full cast iron construction for strength and heat dissipation
• Vented rotor design to improve cooling and reduce brake fade
• Nominal thickness of 1.02 inches (26 mm) with discard thickness at 0.94 inches (24 mm)
• Outside diameter of 14.8 inches (375.9 mm) suitable for Jaguar XF, XFR, XKR, and related models
• Five mounting bolt holes with a 4.25 inch (108 mm) bolt circle diameter
• Non-directional brake surface for flexible installation
• Conventional rotor type without ABS tone ring

Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR901708 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 under demanding conditions. With a nominal thickness of 1.02 inches (26 mm) and a discard thickness of 0.94 inches (24 mm), this rotor maintains structural integrity throughout its service life. The rotor’s 14.8 inch (375.9 mm) outside diameter and five mounting bolt holes with a 4.25 inch (108 mm) bolt circle diameter ensure precise fitment on Jaguar models including the XF, XFR, XFR-S, XJ, XJR, XJR575, XKR, and XKR-S. The non-directional brake surface allows for flexible installation without concern for rotor orientation.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors causing brake pulsation
• Addressing reduced braking efficiency due to rotor thinning
• Eliminating noise and vibration from uneven rotor surfaces
• Improving heat dissipation to prevent brake fade during heavy use
• Restoring proper rotor dimensions for safe braking performance

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the DuraGo BR901708 rotor, ensure the mounting surface is clean and free of rust or debris to promote proper rotor seating. Verify the rotor thickness before installation to confirm it meets or exceeds the discard thickness of 0.94 inches (24 mm). Since this rotor does not include an ABS tone ring, confirm compatibility with your vehicle’s ABS system. Use proper torque specifications on the five mounting bolts to avoid rotor warping. It is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously to ensure optimal braking performance.
