Hella Pagid - High Carbon and Fully Coated Product Line

This rotor is part of the Hella Pagid - High Carbon and Fully Coated line, which focuses on enhanced durability and corrosion resistance. The fully coated surfaces and high carbon content in the material help reduce wear and protect against rust, extending the service life of the rotor under demanding driving conditions.

Detailed Product Description

The Pagid 355106552 disc brake rotor is constructed from gray cast iron, a material known for its excellent thermal conductivity and wear resistance. Its vented design allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, helping to dissipate heat generated during braking and reduce the risk of brake fade. The rotor features a nominal thickness of 22.00 mm and a discard thickness of 20.40 mm, ensuring it meets safety standards for replacement. Both the disc and hat are coated with a rust-resistant finish, which helps maintain rotor integrity and appearance over time. The full cast construction provides structural strength, while the 6 bolt holes ensure secure mounting on compatible BMW models.

Compatible BMW Models and Applications

• BMW 323Ci, 323i
• BMW 325Ci, 325i, 325xi
• BMW 328Ci, 328i
• BMW Z3, Z4

This rotor is designed specifically for these BMW models, providing a direct replacement that meets original equipment specifications.

Common Issues Addressed by This Rotor

• Brake rotor warping due to heat buildup
• Corrosion and rust on rotor surfaces
• Reduced braking efficiency from worn or thin rotors
• Brake noise caused by uneven rotor wear
• Overheating leading to brake fade during extended use

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Pagid 355106552 rotor, ensure the rotor thickness is above the discard thickness of 20.40 mm. Clean the hub surface before mounting to prevent runout. Use proper torque specifications on the 6 bolt holes to secure the rotor. It is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously to maintain optimal braking performance. Check for any signs of uneven wear or damage on related components during installation.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Pagid rotors are manufactured to meet strict quality standards, ensuring consistent performance and durability. The rust-resistant coating and high carbon content contribute to long service life. Warranty details should be confirmed with the point of purchase or manufacturer, as coverage may vary.
