Detailed Product Description

This DFC Brake Rotor - Drilled and Slotted - Black is constructed with a vented design to improve airflow and reduce heat buildup during braking. The rotor features a directional surface with both drilled holes and slots, which help to evacuate gases, dust, and water, maintaining consistent brake pad contact and reducing brake fade. The nominal thickness of 22 mm ensures durability, while the discard thickness of 20 mm indicates when replacement is necessary to maintain safety and performance.

The rotor’s zinc black hat finish provides corrosion resistance, extending the rotor’s service life, especially in environments prone to rust. The plain disc finish complements the drilled and slotted surface, balancing performance with structural integrity. With four bolt holes sized at 13 mm and a bolt circle diameter of 100 mm, this rotor is designed for a secure and precise fit on compatible vehicles.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

• Ford Escort
• Mazda 323
• Mazda Protege
• Mercury Tracer

This rotor is specifically designed for these models, ensuring proper fitment and reliable braking performance. It addresses common braking issues such as overheating, brake fade, and uneven pad wear.

Common Issues Addressed by This Rotor

• Brake fade caused by excessive heat buildup
• Uneven brake pad wear due to poor rotor surface design
• Corrosion and rust on rotor surfaces
• Reduced braking efficiency in wet conditions
• Vibration or noise from warped or damaged rotors

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor is installed on vehicles listed in the fitment section to guarantee compatibility. Check the rotor thickness before installation; replace if below the discard thickness of 20 mm. Clean the rotor surface to remove any protective coatings or debris before mounting. Use proper torque specifications for the 4 bolt holes to avoid warping. Directional rotors must be installed following the indicated rotation direction for optimal performance.
