This solid rotor features a directional surface with both drilled holes and slots, which help to reduce brake fade by allowing gases and debris to escape during braking. The rotor’s nominal thickness is 12 mm, with a discard thickness of 11 mm, ensuring a clear maintenance threshold. The 285 mm outside diameter and 58.4 mm height are matched precisely to the fitment requirements of Ford Explorer, Explorer Sport, Mountaineer, and Ranger models. The zinc black hat finish and rust resistant coating protect against corrosion, maintaining rotor integrity over time. The 5-bolt hole pattern with a 114.3 mm bolt circle diameter ensures proper fitment and secure mounting.
Applications and Problem Solving
- Replacement rotor for worn or warped brake discs on Ford Explorer and Mercury Mountaineer
- Improves heat dissipation to reduce brake fade during heavy braking
- Addresses brake noise and vibration issues caused by uneven rotor surfaces
- Restores braking performance on vehicles with corroded or rusted rotors
- Compatible upgrade for Ford Ranger and Explorer Sport models requiring drilled and slotted rotors
Installation Notes and Tips
Ensure the rotor surface is clean and free of debris before installation. Verify the bolt hole pattern and diameter match your vehicle’s hub assembly. Use proper torque specifications for the 5 lug bolts to avoid rotor warping. It is recommended to replace brake pads when installing new rotors to maintain optimal braking performance. Directional rotors should be installed following the rotation direction indicated on the rotor surface.
