This coating is especially beneficial for vehicles like the Mini Cooper that may be exposed to varying weather conditions. The vented design enhances heat dissipation, reducing the risk of brake fade during extended use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications and Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Raybestos disc brake rotor features a vented design with an outside diameter of 275.85 mm (10.860 inches) and an inside diameter of 178.05 mm (7.010 inches). The rotor thickness is nominally 21.9 mm (0.862 inches), with a discard thickness of 20.4 mm (0.803 inches), ensuring it meets safety standards for replacement. The rotor includes four mounting bolt holes with a bolt circle diameter of 100 mm (3.937 inches) and a center hole diameter of 64.05 mm (2.522 inches), providing a precise fit for Mini Cooper brake assemblies. The smooth surface type supports even brake pad wear and consistent braking response.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Applications and Problem Solving\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement for worn or warped rotors causing brake pulsation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddressing rotor corrosion and surface rust that reduce braking efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproving heat dissipation to prevent brake fade during heavy braking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestoring proper rotor thickness to maintain safe braking performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnsuring secure mounting with correct bolt hole configuration for Mini Cooper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen installing the Raybestos 980716FZN rotor, ensure the mounting surface is clean and free of debris to prevent uneven rotor seating. Verify the rotor thickness before installation to confirm it meets or exceeds the discard thickness specification of 20.4 mm. Use proper torque settings on the four mounting bolts to secure the rotor firmly. It is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously to optimize braking performance and rotor life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRaybestos disc brake 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 corrosion resistance and durability. While specific warranty details for part number 980716FZN should be confirmed with the supplier, Raybestos typically offers limited warranties covering defects in materials and workmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Raybestos","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44466935234741,"sku":"BDBL-980716FZN","price":69.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0628\/1442\/1173\/files\/RS_980716FZN_Fro.jpg?v=1774637238","url":"https:\/\/www.partcatalog.com\/products\/raybestos-980716fzn-disc-brake-rotor","provider":"PartCatalog","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
