Designed specifically for rear disc brake applications, this rotor set offers enhanced heat dissipation and corrosion resistance to maintain consistent stopping power.

• Compatible with Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis, and Mercury Marauder rear brakes
• Vented disc brake rotors with drilled and slotted surface for improved heat management
• Zinc plated coating provides rust resistance and extended rotor life
• Nominal thickness ranges from 18.00 mm to 19.10 mm with discard thickness at 18.00 mm
• Overall rotor diameter approximately 294.90 mm (11.60 inches) with 5 lug holes and 114.30 mm bolt circle diameter

Detailed Product Features and Specifications

This Power Stop rotor pair features a vented design that promotes airflow to reduce heat buildup during braking, which helps prevent brake fade. The drilled and slotted surface pattern improves water and debris evacuation from the rotor face, enhancing wet weather braking performance. The zinc plating on the rotors offers a protective layer against rust and corrosion, which is especially beneficial for vehicles exposed to moisture and road salt.

Each rotor measures approximately 11.60 inches in outside diameter with an overall height of 55.40 mm. The mounting bolt hole circle diameter is 114.30 mm, accommodating 5 lug holes with a 4.50 mm diameter. The nominal thickness of the rotors ranges between 18.00 mm and 19.10 mm, with a discard thickness of 18.00 mm, ensuring precise fitment and safety compliance.
