Detailed Product Features and Specifications

This disc brake rotor is made from gray cast iron, a material known for its excellent thermal conductivity and wear resistance, which helps maintain braking efficiency. The rotor features a vented design that enhances heat dissipation during braking, reducing the risk of brake fade. Both the disc and hat surfaces are fully coated, providing a rust-resistant barrier that extends the rotor's service life. The full cast construction ensures structural integrity, while the 8 bolt hole configuration matches the mounting requirements of Saab 9-3 and 9-3X vehicles. With an outside diameter of 302 mm and a height of 45 mm, this rotor meets the precise fitment specifications for these models.

About the Hella Pagid - High Carbon and Fully Coated Product Line

The Hella Pagid - High Carbon and Fully Coated line focuses on rotors that combine high carbon content with a protective coating. This combination improves thermal stability and reduces the likelihood of cracking under stress. The fully coated finish enhances corrosion resistance, making these rotors suitable for long-term use in various environments. This product line is designed to meet the demands of drivers seeking reliable and durable braking components for their Saab 9-3 and 9-3X vehicles.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors on Saab 9-3 and 9-3X
• Addresses brake noise caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Helps reduce brake fade during extended or heavy braking
• Prevents rust buildup that can impair braking performance
• Restores proper rotor thickness for safe braking operation

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor surface and hub are clean and free of debris before installation. Verify the rotor thickness is above the discard thickness of 25.00 mm to maintain safety standards. Use proper torque specifications for the 8 bolt holes to secure the rotor firmly. It is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously to optimize braking performance and rotor longevity.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Pagid disc brake rotors undergo rigorous quality control to meet OEM standards for fitment and performance. The rust-resistant coating is applied to extend the rotor's service life under typical driving conditions. Warranty details should be confirmed with the point of purchase or manufacturer documentation.
