Hella Pagid - High Carbon and Fully Coated Product Line

This rotor is part of the Hella Pagid - High Carbon and Fully Coated line, which emphasizes enhanced durability and corrosion protection. The fully coated surfaces help prevent rust buildup, extending the rotor's service life, while the high carbon content in the gray cast iron improves thermal stability and wear resistance. This combination is designed to meet the rigorous demands of BMW M3 and Z3 braking systems.

Detailed Product Description

The Pagid 355104092 disc brake rotor is constructed from gray cast iron, a material known for its excellent heat dissipation and mechanical strength. The vented design allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, reducing heat buildup during braking and minimizing the risk of brake fade. Both the disc and hat areas are coated to resist rust and corrosion, which is critical for maintaining braking performance over time. With a nominal thickness of 28.00 mm and a discard thickness of 26.40 mm, this rotor provides a balance between durability and performance. The 6-bolt hole configuration and 315 mm outside diameter ensure compatibility with specific BMW M3 and Z3 models.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors on BMW M3 and Z3 vehicles
• Addresses brake noise and vibration issues caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Helps reduce brake fade during high-performance or repeated braking
• Prevents rust-related rotor degradation in humid or corrosive environments
• Restores proper braking feel and pedal response

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor thickness is above the discard limit of 26.40 mm before installation. Clean the hub surface to remove rust or debris for proper rotor seating. Use the 6-bolt hole pattern to securely mount the rotor, and torque bolts to manufacturer specifications. It is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously to ensure optimal braking performance. After installation, perform a bed-in procedure to condition the new rotor and pads.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Pagid rotors undergo strict quality control to meet OEM standards for fitment and performance. The rust-resistant coating and high carbon content contribute to long-term durability. Warranty coverage details should be confirmed with the point of purchase or manufacturer documentation.
