The drum-in-hat type rotor integrates a parking brake drum, eliminating the need for a separate drum component. The rotor’s nominal thickness is 0.787 inches (20.0 mm), with a discard thickness of 0.724 inches (18.4 mm), ensuring it meets safety standards for wear limits. The rotor’s outside diameter measures 12.392 inches (314.75 mm), and it features five mounting bolt holes arranged on a 5.5 inch (139.7 mm) bolt circle diameter, matching the Kia Sorento’s hub specifications. The center hole diameter is 3.791 inches (96.3 mm), and the overall height is 3.445 inches (87.5 mm), providing a precise fit for the vehicle’s braking system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Element3; Coated Rotor Product Line\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Element3; Coated Rotor line by Raybestos is designed to offer enhanced corrosion resistance and durability through a protective coating. This coating helps extend the rotor’s service life by reducing rust and corrosion, which is especially beneficial in regions with harsh weather conditions. The 980324FZN rotor benefits from this coating, maintaining structural integrity and appearance over time while delivering consistent braking performance for the Kia Sorento.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Applications and Problem Solving\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement for worn or warped rotors causing vibration or noise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddressing brake fade due to overheating with vented rotor design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResolving parking brake issues by integrating drum-in-hat functionality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproving braking consistency on Kia Sorento models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreventing premature rotor corrosion and wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnsure the rotor is installed on compatible Kia Sorento models matching the specified bolt pattern and dimensions.
