Product Details

The DFC Brake Rotor - Drilled and Slotted - Black with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads - Ceramic and Hardware Kit is built for front brake service on the Ford Explorer, Ford Explorer Sport Trac, and Mercury Mountaineer listed above. The drilled and slotted rotor design supports consistent pad contact and heat management during repeated stops, while the ceramic pad formulation is suited to everyday braking service.

What It Helps Address

  • Brake pulsation from worn or uneven front rotors
  • Reduced stopping performance from worn brake pads
  • Noise caused by aged front brake components
  • Visible rotor wear, scoring, or heat checking
  • Front brake service needs on Explorer, Explorer Sport Trac, and Mountaineer models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify year, make, model, and front-position fitment before ordering. Inspect calipers, hoses, and mounting surfaces during brake service, and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s torque and bedding procedures after installation. Confirm that the replacement parts match the existing front brake configuration on your Ford Explorer, Ford Explorer Sport Trac, or Mercury Mountaineer.
