DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotor Product Line Details
The DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotor line by Dynamite Friction focuses on rotors with a protective coating to resist corrosion and extend service life. This coating helps maintain rotor integrity under various driving conditions, making it a practical choice for vehicles such as the Ford Escort and Mazda MX-3. The vented design further supports thermal management during braking.
Technical Description and Specifications
This disc brake rotor features a vented construction that enhances airflow between the rotor surfaces, reducing heat buildup during braking. The nominal thickness of 22 mm ensures structural strength, while the discard thickness of 20 mm indicates the minimum safe thickness before replacement is necessary. The rotor’s 257 mm outside diameter and 55 mm inside diameter are matched to the hub and caliper specifications of compatible vehicles. Four bolt holes, each 13 mm in diameter, provide secure mounting. The 45 mm height dimension aligns with the brake assembly requirements for the listed Ford, Mazda, and Mercury models.
Compatible Vehicles and Common Applications
