Technical Details and Specifications

This disc brake rotor features a vented design to enhance cooling during braking, which helps maintain performance and extends rotor life. The nominal thickness of 1.102 inches (28 mm) ensures a solid braking surface, while the discard thickness of 1.024 inches (26 mm) indicates the minimum safe thickness before replacement is necessary. The rotor’s overall height measures 1.858 inches (47.2 mm), and it includes five mounting bolt holes arranged on a 4.5 inch (114.3 mm) bolt circle diameter, compatible with the specified Acura and Honda models. The center hole diameter of 2.524 inches (64.1 mm) ensures proper fitment on the vehicle hub.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors on Acura Accord Crosstour and Honda CR-V
• Addresses brake noise and vibration issues caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Improves braking performance in vehicles experiencing fade due to overheating
• Restores proper rotor thickness for safe and effective braking
• Compatible upgrade for Crosstour and RDX models requiring vented rotors

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor surface and hub are clean and free of rust before installation to promote proper seating. Verify the rotor thickness with a micrometer to confirm it meets the nominal specifications. Use the correct 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.
