Detailed Specifications and Product Line Information

This DFC Brake Rotor from Dynamite Friction is part of a product line focused on delivering reliable braking components tailored to specific vehicle applications. The vented rotor design helps reduce brake fade by allowing air to circulate between the rotor surfaces, maintaining optimal operating temperatures. With a nominal thickness of 24 mm and a discard thickness of 22.2 mm, this rotor provides a balance between longevity and performance. The precise bolt hole diameter of 13.75 mm and quantity of four bolts ensure a secure and accurate fit on compatible vehicles.

Compatible Vehicles and Common Applications

This disc brake rotor is compatible with the following vehicles:

  • Ford Contour
  • Mercury Cougar

It is designed to address common braking issues such as:

  • Brake rotor warping or uneven wear
  • Reduced braking efficiency due to overheating
  • Vibration or pulsation during braking
  • Excessive brake noise
  • Maintaining proper rotor thickness for safety and performance

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Dynamite Friction DFC Brake Rotor 600-56017, ensure the rotor surface is clean and free of any contaminants. Verify that the bolt holes align correctly with the vehicle hub and torque bolts to manufacturer specifications. It is recommended to inspect brake pads and replace them if worn to maintain optimal braking performance. Proper bedding-in of the new rotor and pads will help achieve consistent braking response.
