Technical Specifications and Features

The 982408R rotor features a vented design that enhances heat dissipation during braking, reducing the risk of brake fade. Its full cast construction provides structural strength and resistance to warping. The rotor’s nominal thickness is 1.102 inches (28 mm), with a discard thickness of 1.024 inches (26 mm), ensuring safe replacement intervals. The outside diameter of 12.441 inches (316 mm) and inside diameter of 7.28 inches (184.9 mm) are engineered to fit the Jaguar XE precisely. The rotor includes a center hole diameter of 2.5 inches (63.5 mm) and a mounting bolt hole circle diameter of 4.252 inches (108 mm), accommodating 5 lug holes sized at 0.539 inches (13.7 mm) each. This conventional rotor type does not include an ABS tone ring or bearings.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors on Jaguar XE models
• Addresses brake pulsation caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Improves braking performance by restoring proper rotor thickness
• Helps reduce brake fade during extended or heavy braking
• Prevents rotor cracking and structural failure due to heat stress

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor surface is clean and free of rust or debris before installation. Verify the rotor thickness is within the specified nominal and discard limits. Use proper torque specifications for mounting bolts to avoid rotor distortion. Since this rotor does not include bearings or an ABS tone ring, confirm compatibility with your vehicle’s existing components. It is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously to maintain optimal braking performance.
