Detailed Product Description

This Power Stop rotor is specifically designed to meet the braking requirements of vehicles such as the Ford Focus, Lincoln MKC, Volvo S40, and Transit Connect. The high carbon cast iron material provides improved thermal conductivity and resistance to warping under heavy braking conditions. The vented rotor design allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, reducing heat buildup and maintaining consistent brake performance. The Geomet coating offers a protective layer against rust and corrosion, which is especially beneficial in regions with harsh weather or road salt exposure.

The rotor’s precise dimensions, including a 12.60-inch outside diameter and 1.90-inch overall height, ensure proper fitment and compatibility with the specified vehicle models. The mounting bolt hole circle diameter of 108.00 mm and five lug holes align with factory specifications for secure installation.
