Raybestos R-Line Product Line Details

The R-Line by Raybestos focuses on delivering dependable replacement brake components that meet or exceed OEM specifications. This product line emphasizes quality materials and precise manufacturing tolerances, ensuring that the 981773R disc brake rotor maintains proper fitment and performance for Nissan vehicles requiring vented, conventional rotors.

Technical Specifications and Features

The 981773R rotor features a vented design that enhances heat dissipation during braking, reducing the risk of brake fade under normal driving conditions. With a nominal thickness of 1.024 inches (26.000 mm) and a discard thickness of 0.945 inches (24.000 mm), this rotor provides a clear service life indicator to maintain safe braking performance. The rotor’s overall height measures 1.728 inches (43.900 mm), and it has an outside diameter of 11.646 inches (295.800 mm), matching the exact dimensions required for compatible Nissan models. The five mounting bolt holes, each 0.504 inches (12.800 mm) in diameter, are arranged on a 4.500 inch (114.300 mm) bolt circle diameter, ensuring secure installation. The smooth surface type promotes even brake pad wear and consistent stopping power.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors on Nissan LEAF, Qashqai, Rogue, Rogue Sport, and X-Trail
• Addresses brake noise and vibration caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Helps restore braking efficiency lost due to rotor thickness below discard limits
• Improves heat management to reduce brake fade during extended use
• Ensures proper rotor fitment for vehicles with five-lug mounting patterns

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify rotor thickness before installation to ensure it meets minimum discard thickness
• Clean mounting surfaces to prevent uneven rotor seating
• Torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications for secure fitment
