Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR901808-01 disc brake rotor is constructed from full cast iron, providing a solid and durable braking surface. Its vented design enhances airflow, helping to dissipate heat more effectively during braking and reducing the risk of brake fade. The rotor features a rust-resistant coating that helps protect against corrosion, which is especially beneficial in humid or wet environments. With a nominal thickness of 0.98 inches (25 mm) and a discard thickness of 0.91 inches (23 mm), this rotor maintains structural integrity throughout its service life. The overall height measures 1.83 inches (46.4 mm), and the outside diameter is 11.01 inches (279.6 mm), ensuring proper fitment on compatible Mazda 3 vehicles. The rotor includes five mounting bolt holes with a 4.5 inch (114.3 mm) bolt circle diameter and 0.52 inch (13.3 mm) bolt hole diameter, designed for secure installation. This conventional, non-directional rotor does not include an ABS tone ring and is not cross-drilled or slotted.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

• Compatible with Mazda 3 models requiring a 11.01 inch vented disc brake rotor
• Ideal replacement for worn or damaged front or rear rotors on Mazda 3
• Suitable for drivers experiencing brake noise, vibration, or reduced stopping power

• Helps restore braking performance and safety on Mazda 3 vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the DuraGo BR901808-01 rotor, ensure the mounting surface is clean and free of debris to promote proper rotor seating. Verify that the rotor thickness is within the discard limits before installation. Since this rotor is non-directional, it can be installed on either side without concern for rotation direction. Use the correct torque specifications for the mounting bolts to avoid rotor warping. It is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously to ensure optimal braking performance.
