• Outside diameter measures 13.00 inches (330.00 mm) for precise fitment
• Overall height of 1.80 inches (45.30 mm) ensures compatibility with specified vehicles
• Mounting bolt hole circle diameter of 4.40 inches (112.00 mm) with 5 lug holes

Product Line Details

The Power Stop - Front Genuine Geomet High Carbon Coated Rotor line focuses on providing rotors with a high carbon cast iron core combined with a Geomet coating. This coating enhances rust resistance without compromising braking performance. The high carbon material improves rotor durability and heat management, making it suitable for daily driving and moderate performance demands on BMW and Mini models.

Technical Description and Compatibility

This disc brake rotor is vented to allow better airflow, which helps maintain optimal braking temperatures and reduces the risk of brake fade during extended use. The rotor’s dimensions, including a 13-inch outside diameter and 1.80-inch overall height, are tailored to fit the front braking system of BMW X1, X2, and Mini Cooper Countryman vehicles. The 5-lug hole pattern with a 4.40-inch bolt circle diameter ensures secure mounting and proper alignment.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped front rotors on BMW X1, X2, and Mini Cooper Countryman
• Addresses brake noise and vibration caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Helps restore braking efficiency lost due to rotor corrosion or thinning
• Improves heat dissipation to reduce brake fade during frequent stops
• Prevents rust buildup that can lead to premature rotor failure

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor is compatible with your vehicle’s make and model before installation. Clean the hub surface to remove rust and debris for proper rotor seating. Use a torque wrench to tighten lug nuts to manufacturer specifications. It is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously to maintain optimal braking performance. Check rotor thickness regularly and replace when below discard thickness of 0.88 inches (22.40 mm).

Quality Assurance

Power Stop rotors are manufactured to meet or exceed OEM specifications for fit, form, and function. The high carbon cast iron construction combined with the Geomet rust-resistant coating provides long-lasting durability. While specific warranty details are not provided, Power Stop products typically undergo rigorous quality control to ensure consistent performance and reliability.
