• Overall diameter of 303 mm and height of 52.2 mm

Detailed Product Features and Specifications

This Dynamite Friction rotor is part of the DFC Brake Rotor - Drilled and Slotted - Silver line, which focuses on delivering rotors with enhanced surface treatments and corrosion resistance. The rotor’s vented design improves airflow to dissipate heat more effectively, reducing the risk of brake fade during extended use. The directional slotted and drilled surface helps evacuate gases, dust, and water from the braking surface, improving pad contact and braking consistency.

The rotor’s zinc silver hat finish provides a rust-resistant coating, extending the rotor’s service life in various driving environments. With a nominal thickness of 32 mm and a discard thickness of 30.7 mm, this rotor meets precise wear limits to ensure safe operation. The 5-lug bolt pattern with a 114.3 mm bolt circle diameter and 14.2 mm bolt hole diameter matches the specifications for Cadillac CTS models, ensuring proper fitment and secure installation.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped brake rotors on Cadillac CTS vehicles
• Improves braking performance by reducing heat buildup and brake fade
• Addresses brake noise and vibration caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Helps maintain consistent braking in wet or dusty conditions due to slotted and drilled design
• Prevents premature rotor corrosion with rust-resistant coating

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor is compatible with your specific Cadillac CTS model year before installation. Clean the hub surface thoroughly to prevent rotor runout. Torque lug nuts to manufacturer specifications using a star pattern to evenly secure the rotor. Inspect brake pads for wear and replace if necessary to optimize braking performance with the new rotor.

Quality Assurance

Dynamite Friction rotors are manufactured to meet or exceed OEM specifications for fit, form, and function. The rust-resistant zinc silver coating helps extend rotor life by protecting against corrosion. While no specific warranty information is provided, the product is designed for durability and consistent braking performance on Cadillac CTS vehicles.
