About the Raybestos Element3; Coated Rotor Line

The Element3; Coated Rotor line from Raybestos focuses on providing rotors with a protective coating that helps prevent rust and corrosion, which can degrade braking performance over time. This coating enhances the rotor's durability while maintaining the necessary friction surface for effective braking. The 680282FZN part benefits from this technology, making it suitable for vehicles requiring reliable stopping power under various driving conditions.

Technical Specifications and Features

This disc brake rotor is vented, allowing air to flow between the rotor surfaces to dissipate heat more effectively during braking. The rotor's nominal thickness is 1.103 inches (28.0 mm), with a discard thickness of 1.043 inches (26.5 mm), indicating when the rotor should be replaced to maintain safe braking performance. The rotor features five mounting bolt holes arranged on a 4.5-inch (114.3 mm) bolt circle diameter, compatible with the specified Ford and Mercury models. Its overall height of 1.849 inches (46.95 mm) ensures proper fitment and alignment with the vehicle's braking system.

Compatible Vehicles and Common Applications

• Ford Five Hundred brake system maintenance and rotor replacement
• Mercury Montego disc brake rotor upgrade or replacement
• Ford Freestyle vented rotor installation for improved heat dissipation
• Addressing rotor wear and thickness below discard limits
• Replacing corroded or damaged rotors to restore braking efficiency

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor thickness is measured before installation to confirm it meets the nominal thickness specifications. Clean the mounting surface and hub to prevent uneven rotor seating. Use proper torque specifications for the five mounting bolts to avoid rotor warping. Since this rotor is vented and conventional type, verify compatibility with your vehicle’s brake caliper and hardware. No additional installation hardware is included with this part.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Raybestos rotors are manufactured to meet or exceed OEM standards for fit, form, and function. The Element3; Coated Rotor 680282FZN undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure consistent performance and durability. Warranty details should be confirmed with the original product documentation or supplier, as they may vary by region and application.
