Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR901772-01 disc brake rotor is engineered for Volkswagen Jetta and Taos vehicles requiring a solid, conventional rotor. Made from cast iron, it provides consistent braking performance and effective heat management during operation. The full cast construction ensures structural integrity and durability under normal driving conditions. This rotor features a rust-resistant coating to help prevent corrosion and extend rotor life, especially in environments prone to moisture and road salt.

With an outside diameter of 10.71 inches and a nominal thickness of 0.39 inches, this rotor meets OEM specifications for proper fit and function. The discard thickness of 0.31 inches indicates the minimum safe thickness before replacement is necessary. The rotor’s mounting bolt pattern includes five holes with a 4.41-inch bolt circle diameter, matching Volkswagen’s factory specifications for secure installation. 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 on Volkswagen Jetta and Taos
• Addresses brake pulsation caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Resolves noise issues related to rotor corrosion or surface damage
• Restores braking efficiency lost due to rotor thinning or scoring
• Prevents premature rotor failure from rust and corrosion

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor surface and hub are clean and free of debris before installation. Verify the rotor thickness is above the discard limit of 0.31 inches to maintain safe braking performance. Use proper torque specifications for the five mounting bolts to avoid rotor warping. Since this rotor does not include an ABS tone ring, confirm compatibility with your vehicle’s ABS system. This rotor is designed for direct replacement on compatible Volkswagen Jetta and Taos models.
