• Material: Gray cast iron with aluminum hat
• Composite construction with vented design
• Coated disc and hat finish for corrosion resistance
• Nominal thickness: 30.00 mm; discard thickness: 28.40 mm
• Outside diameter: 348.00 mm; height: 66.10 mm
• 6 bolt holes for secure fitment
• Rust resistant coating applied

Hella Pagid OE Two Piece Design Features

This rotor is part of the Hella Pagid - OE Two Piece Design Made in Europe (Aluminum Hat, High Carbon Friction Ring, Fully Coated) product line. The two-piece design integrates a gray cast iron friction ring with a lightweight aluminum hat, enhancing heat dissipation and reducing unsprung weight. The fully coated surfaces provide additional protection against corrosion, extending the rotor's service life. This composite construction supports consistent braking performance under demanding conditions.

Technical Description and Compatibility

The 355120651 rotor features a vented design that improves heat management during braking, reducing the risk of brake fade. Its 6-bolt hole configuration and precise dimensions ensure compatibility with BMW 535d, 535d xDrive, 535i, 535i xDrive, 640i, 640i Gran Coupe, 640i xDrive, 640i xDrive Gran Coupe, and ActiveHybrid 5 models. The nominal thickness of 30.00 mm and discard thickness of 28.40 mm provide clear service limits for maintenance.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors causing vibration or noise
• Improves braking consistency and heat dissipation
• Addresses corrosion issues with coated surfaces
• Restores proper rotor thickness for safe braking performance
• Compatible upgrade for BMW 535 and 640 series brake systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor is installed on compatible BMW models as specified. Clean the hub surface before mounting to prevent runout. Torque bolts to manufacturer specifications using the 6-bolt pattern. Inspect brake pads and calipers during installation to maintain optimal braking performance. Follow discard thickness guidelines to determine rotor replacement intervals.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Pagid rotors are manufactured in Europe under strict quality controls to meet OE standards. The rust-resistant coating and composite construction contribute to long-term durability. Warranty coverage details should be confirmed with the point of purchase or manufacturer documentation.
