Pagid 355122362 Disc Brake Rotor - Rear

Overview of Pagid Disc Brake Rotor 355122362

The Pagid disc brake rotor 355122362 is engineered for reliable braking performance on select Volkswagen models. Designed with durability and corrosion resistance in mind, this rotor suits vehicles such as the Volkswagen Corrado, Golf, Jetta, and Passat.

• Material: Gray cast iron for strength and heat dissipation
• Nominal thickness: 10.00 mm with discard thickness at 8.00 mm
• Coated disc and hat finish for rust resistance
• Solid rotor construction with 5 bolt holes
• Outside diameter of 226.00 mm and height of 71.50 mm

Product Line: Hella Pagid - High Carbon and Fully Coated

This rotor is part of the Hella Pagid - High Carbon and Fully Coated line, which emphasizes enhanced durability through high carbon content and a full coating process. The coating protects against corrosion and extends rotor life, making it suitable for daily driving conditions and moderate performance demands. The high carbon material improves thermal stability and reduces the risk of cracking under stress.

Detailed Product Description

The Pagid disc brake rotor 355122362 is constructed from gray cast iron, a material known for its excellent heat absorption and dissipation properties. The rotor features a solid design with a full cast construction, providing consistent braking surface integrity. Both the disc and hat areas are coated to resist rust and corrosion, which helps maintain performance and appearance over time. With a 5-bolt hole pattern and an outside diameter of 226 mm, this rotor is specifically designed for Volkswagen models including the Corrado, Golf, Jetta, and Passat. The nominal thickness of 10 mm ensures a robust braking surface, while the discard thickness of 8 mm indicates when replacement is necessary to maintain safety and performance.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors on Volkswagen Corrado, Golf, Jetta, and Passat
• Addresses brake pulsation caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Prevents rust-related rotor degradation with coated surfaces
• Improves braking consistency and reduces noise
• Suitable for vehicles experiencing reduced braking efficiency due to rotor wear

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 8.00 mm to maintain safety standards. Use proper torque specifications for the 5-bolt pattern to avoid rotor warping. It is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously to ensure optimal braking performance and rotor longevity.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Pagid rotors undergo strict quality control to meet OEM standards for fitment and performance. The Hella Pagid - High Carbon and Fully Coated rotors are designed to provide consistent braking under normal operating conditions. Warranty coverage details should be confirmed with the point of purchase or manufacturer documentation.
