Detailed Product Description and Specifications

This Raybestos disc brake rotor features a vented design that improves heat dissipation during braking, reducing the risk of brake fade on heavy-duty vehicles such as the Nissan Armada and INFINITI QX56. The rotor has a smooth surface type, which helps maintain consistent pad contact and braking efficiency. With an outside diameter of 349.8 mm and a nominal thickness of 30.0 mm, this rotor meets OEM specifications for the listed vehicles. The mounting bolt hole circle diameter is 139.7 mm with six mounting bolt holes, ensuring proper fitment and secure installation.

The Element3; Coated Rotor line from Raybestos is designed to provide corrosion resistance and extended rotor life through a protective coating. This coating helps prevent rust buildup, which can affect braking performance and rotor longevity. The conventional rotor design is compatible with drum-in-hat brake systems commonly found on the Nissan TITAN XD and similar models.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

• INFINITI Armada, QX56, QX80
• Nissan TITAN, TITAN XD

This rotor is intended for use in disc brake systems on these specific models, providing replacement or upgrade options for worn or damaged rotors.

Common Issues Addressed by This Rotor

• Brake rotor warping due to heat buildup
• Corrosion and rust on rotor surfaces
• Reduced braking efficiency from worn rotors
• Brake noise caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Vibration or pulsation during braking

Installation Notes and Tips

• Ensure rotor thickness is above discard thickness (28.5 mm) before installation
• Clean mounting surfaces to prevent uneven rotor seating
• Torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications
• Inspect brake pads for wear and replace if necessary
• Perform a bed-in procedure after installation for optimal braking performance
