Detailed Product Description

This disc brake rotor is manufactured from high carbon cast iron, which provides improved wear resistance and thermal conductivity compared to standard rotors. The Power Stop - Rear Genuine Geomet High Carbon Coated Rotor incorporates a Geomet rust-resistant coating that helps prevent corrosion, extending the rotor's service life especially in harsh weather conditions. Its vented design allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, enhancing heat dissipation and reducing the risk of brake fade during repeated stops.

With precise dimensions including a nominal thickness of 0.79 inches and an outside diameter of 11.70 inches, this rotor is engineered to meet the exact specifications required for BMW 525i, 528i, 530i, and 540i rear brake systems. The mounting bolt hole circle diameter of 120.00 mm and five lug holes ensure proper alignment and secure installation.
