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 681952FZN rotor combines this coating with a vented design to maintain optimal braking performance and rotor integrity over time.

Technical Specifications and Features

This disc brake rotor features a vented design that enhances heat dissipation during braking, reducing the risk of brake fade. The nominal thickness of 1.260 inches (32.000 mm) ensures structural strength, while the discard thickness of 1.201 inches (30.500 mm) indicates the minimum safe thickness before replacement is necessary. The rotor’s outside diameter of 13.909 inches (353.300 mm) and overall height of 2.520 inches (64.000 mm) are engineered to fit precisely on compatible Ford Mustang models. The five mounting bolt holes with a 4.500 inch (114.300 mm) bolt circle diameter and 0.622 inch (15.800 mm) hole diameter provide secure attachment to the vehicle’s hub assembly.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors on Ford Mustang vehicles
• Addresses brake noise and vibration issues caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Helps restore proper braking performance and pedal feel
• Prevents corrosion-related rotor damage with a protective coating
• Suitable for vehicles experiencing brake fade due to heat buildup

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Raybestos Element3; Coated Rotor 681952FZN, ensure the rotor surface is clean and free of debris before mounting. Verify the rotor thickness is above the discard thickness specification to maintain safety. Use proper torque specifications for the five mounting bolts to avoid rotor warping. It is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously to ensure even wear and optimal braking performance.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Raybestos rotors are manufactured to meet or exceed OEM standards for fit, form, and function. The Element3; Coated Rotor line includes a protective coating to enhance durability and corrosion resistance. While specific warranty details for part number 681952FZN should be confirmed with the supplier, Raybestos typically offers limited warranties covering defects in materials and workmanship.
