Its vented design helps dissipate heat more effectively during braking, reducing the risk of brake fade and maintaining consistent stopping power. The rotor measures 10.866 inches (276 mm) in outside diameter and has an overall height of 1.736 inches (44.1 mm), matching OEM specifications for proper fitment. The nominal thickness of 0.862 inches (21.9 mm) ensures structural integrity, while the discard thickness of 0.803 inches (20.4 mm) indicates the minimum safe thickness before replacement is necessary. The mounting bolt hole circle diameter and bolt hole diameter are both 3.937 inches (100 mm), ensuring secure installation on compatible Mini Cooper models.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Element3; Coated Rotor Product Line\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Element3; Coated Rotor line by Raybestos features rotors with a protective coating designed to resist rust and corrosion.
