Power Stop - Rear Genuine Geomet Coated Rotor Product Line

The Power Stop - Rear Genuine Geomet Coated Rotor line focuses on providing rotors with a durable Geomet coating that resists rust and corrosion. This coating helps maintain rotor integrity and appearance over time, especially in environments prone to moisture and road salt. The solid rotor design ensures consistent braking performance and is tailored for rear brake systems on compatible Ford and Mercury models.

Detailed Product Description

This disc brake rotor is designed with a nominal thickness of 0.47 inches (12.00 mm) and a discard thickness of 11.00 mm, ensuring it meets safety and performance standards. The solid rotor type provides uniform braking surface contact, which is essential for rear brake applications. The Geomet coating offers enhanced rust resistance, helping to prevent corrosion that can lead to premature rotor wear. With an outside diameter of 11.20 inches (285.00 mm) and a mounting bolt hole circle diameter of 114.30 mm (4.50 inches), this rotor fits securely on vehicles equipped with 5 lug holes. The overall height measurements of 2.30 inches and 58.40 mm ensure proper alignment and fitment within the brake assembly.

• Suitable for Mercury Mountaineer rear disc brake systems
• Compatible with Ford Ranger rear disc brake setups
• Addresses issues such as rotor rust, uneven wear, and brake noise
• Ideal for restoring braking performance on rear wheels

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor thickness is measured before installation to confirm it is above the discard thickness of 11.00 mm. Clean the hub surface to remove rust or debris for proper rotor seating. Use the correct torque specifications for the 5 lug bolts on the 114.30 mm bolt circle diameter. It is recommended to inspect brake pads and hardware during rotor replacement to maintain optimal braking performance.
