This design helps reduce brake fade and maintain consistent braking performance under demanding conditions. The silver zinc coating on the rotor hat provides corrosion resistance, extending the rotor's service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications and Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis vented rotor features a 258 mm outside diameter and a 64.5 mm center hole diameter, ensuring proper fitment and alignment on compatible vehicles. The drilled and slotted surface type enhances water and gas evacuation from the braking surface, which is critical for maintaining effective braking in wet or high-temperature environments. The rotor’s 5-bolt hole configuration with a 108 mm bolt circle diameter matches the factory specifications for Ford Cougar, Lincoln Mark VIII, and Mercury Thunderbird models. The zinc silver hat finish offers additional protection against rust, while the plain disc finish maintains a smooth braking surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications and Problem Solving\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with Ford Cougar, Lincoln Mark VIII, and Mercury Thunderbird models requiring a 258 mm vented rotor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddresses brake fade caused by excessive heat buildup during aggressive driving or towing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproves braking response in wet conditions by channeling water away from the rotor surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces brake noise and vibration through the slotted and drilled design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrevents premature rotor corrosion with rust-resistant coating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnsure the rotor thickness is above the discard thickness of 16.7 mm before installation. Properly torque the 5 lug nuts to the manufacturer’s specifications using the 14.1 mm bolt hole diameter and 108 mm bolt circle diameter. Clean the rotor surface to remove any protective coating before mounting brake pads. Verify directional rotation of the rotor during installation to maintain optimal braking performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDynamite Friction manufactures this rotor to meet or exceed OEM standards for fit, form, and function.
