Raybestos Element3; Coated Rotor Product Line Details

The Element3; Coated Rotor line from Raybestos focuses on providing rotors with a protective coating that helps resist corrosion and extends rotor life. This coating is particularly beneficial for vehicles like the Ford Mustang that may be exposed to varying weather conditions. The 680318FZN part number represents a rotor that balances performance and durability within this product line.

Technical Specifications and Features

This disc brake rotor features a vented design, which enhances heat dissipation during braking to reduce the risk of brake fade. The nominal thickness of 0.745 inches (18.9 mm) ensures structural integrity, while the discard thickness of 0.685 inches (17.4 mm) indicates the minimum safe thickness before replacement is necessary. The rotor’s 11.810 inch (299.95 mm) outside diameter and 1.370 inch (34.8 mm) overall height are engineered to fit the Ford Mustang’s braking system precisely. The five mounting bolt holes and corresponding bolt circle diameter of 4.5 inches (114.3 mm) provide secure attachment to the vehicle hub.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors on Ford Mustang models
• Addresses brake noise and vibration issues caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Improves braking performance by restoring proper rotor thickness and surface condition
• Helps prevent brake fade during extended or aggressive driving
• Resists corrosion to maintain rotor integrity over time

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Raybestos 680318FZN rotor on a Ford Mustang, ensure the rotor surface is clean and free of any protective coatings before mounting. Verify that the mounting bolt holes align correctly with the vehicle hub. It is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously to optimize braking performance. Proper torque specifications should be followed for mounting bolts to avoid rotor warping.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Raybestos manufactures the Element3; Coated Rotor line to meet or exceed OEM standards for fit, form, and function. The 680318FZN rotor undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure durability and consistent performance. Warranty coverage details should be confirmed with the product documentation or authorized Raybestos distributors.
