Detailed Product Description

This disc brake rotor is designed to replace original equipment on various GM models including the Chevrolet Cavalier, Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais, and Cadillac Cimarron. The vented rotor construction allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, which helps dissipate heat generated during braking. Maintaining the nominal thickness of 22.35 mm ensures optimal braking performance, while the discard thickness of 20.7 mm indicates when the rotor should be replaced to maintain safety. The rotor’s five bolt holes with a 13.2 mm diameter provide a secure and precise fit on compatible hubs.

Common Applications and Issues Addressed

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors causing brake pulsation
• Upgrading from solid to vented rotors for improved heat dissipation
• Resolving brake noise related to rotor surface irregularities
• Addressing reduced braking efficiency due to rotor thickness below discard limits
• Ensuring proper fitment on Buick Calais and Pontiac Grand Am models

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify rotor dimensions against vehicle specifications before installation
• Ensure hub surface is clean and free of rust for proper rotor seating
• Torque lug nuts to manufacturer specifications to avoid rotor warping
• Inspect brake pads and replace if worn to prevent uneven rotor wear
• Check rotor thickness regularly to maintain safety and performance
