Raybestos R-Line Product Line Details

The Raybestos R-Line series focuses on delivering dependable brake components that meet or exceed OEM specifications. This product line emphasizes quality materials and construction, such as full cast iron rotors with vented designs to optimize thermal management. The 981196R rotor is part of this line, offering a balance of durability and performance for everyday driving conditions.

Product Specifications and Features

The 981196R disc brake rotor features a full cast iron construction that provides structural integrity and resistance to warping under heat stress. Its vented design allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, enhancing cooling during braking. The rotor measures 280.0 mm in outside diameter and 24.0 mm in nominal thickness, with a discard thickness of 21.8 mm to indicate when replacement is necessary. It includes five mounting bolt holes with a bolt circle diameter of 114.3 mm, ensuring proper fitment on compatible Nissan models. The smooth, non-directional braking surface supports consistent pad contact and wear.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

• Replacement rotor for Nissan Kicks models requiring a 280 mm vented disc brake rotor
• Suitable for Nissan Sentra vehicles with matching brake specifications
• Addresses issues such as brake rotor wear, vibration, and reduced braking efficiency
• Ideal for restoring braking performance after rotor surface damage or thickness wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor thickness is measured before installation to confirm it meets minimum specifications. Clean the rotor surface and hub mounting area to prevent uneven contact. Use proper torque settings on the five mounting bolts to secure the rotor. This rotor does not include ABS tone rings or bearings, so verify compatibility with your vehicle’s existing components.
