Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR901728 disc brake rotor is engineered from full cast iron, providing a solid and reliable braking surface for Hyundai Kona and Kia Seltos vehicles. Its solid rotor design means it does not feature slots or cross-drilled holes, which helps maintain structural integrity and reduces the risk of cracking under normal driving conditions. The rotor measures 11.18 inches (284 mm) in outside diameter and has a nominal thickness of 0.39 inches (10 mm), ensuring compatibility with the specified vehicle models. The discard thickness is set at 0.31 inches (8 mm), indicating when the rotor should be replaced to maintain safe braking performance.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

• Hyundai Kona
• Kia Seltos

This rotor is designed for use in conventional braking systems without ABS tone rings, making it suitable for standard brake setups on these vehicles.

Common Issues Addressed by This Rotor

• Brake pulsation caused by uneven rotor wear
• Reduced braking efficiency due to worn or thin rotors
• Noise and vibration from warped rotors
• Overheating and brake fade during regular driving
• Corrosion-related rotor surface degradation (note: this rotor does not have rust-resistant coating)

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the DuraGo BR901728 rotor, ensure the mounting surface is clean and free of debris to prevent uneven rotor seating. Use the correct torque specifications for the five mounting bolts with a 4.5 inch (114.3 mm) bolt circle diameter. Since this rotor is non-directional, it can be installed on either side of the vehicle without concern for rotation direction. It is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously to ensure optimal braking performance.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

DuraGo manufactures this rotor with strict quality control standards to meet OEM specifications for Hyundai Kona and Kia Seltos vehicles. The full cast iron construction provides durability under normal operating conditions. While this rotor does not include a rust-resistant coating, proper maintenance can help extend its service life. Warranty details should be confirmed with the point of purchase or manufacturer documentation.
