The rotor has an outside diameter of 11.012 inches (279.700 mm) and an inside diameter of 6.713 inches (170.500 mm), designed to fit the Mazda 3 brake assembly precisely. The overall height measures 1.827 inches (46.400 mm), and the rotor includes five stud\/lug holes with a diameter of 0.528 inches (13.400 mm) on a 4.500 inch (114.300 mm) bolt circle diameter. This conventional, vented rotor does not include ABS tone rings or bearings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Element3; Coated Rotor Product Line\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Element3; Coated Rotor line by Raybestos focuses on providing rotors with a protective coating that helps prevent rust and corrosion, extending the rotor's service life. This coating is especially beneficial for vehicles like the Mazda 3 that are exposed to varying weather conditions. The vented design improves heat dissipation, reducing the risk of brake fade during extended use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications and Problem Solving\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement for worn or warped rotors on Mazda 3 models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddresses brake noise caused by uneven rotor surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps eliminate vibration or pulsation during braking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrevents rust buildup that can reduce braking efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproves heat management to avoid premature brake component wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnsure the rotor thickness is above the discard thickness of 0.906 inches (23.000 mm) before installation. Clean the hub surface to prevent runout and ensure proper rotor seating. Use proper torque specifications on the five lug nuts to avoid rotor warping. Since this rotor does not include bearings or ABS tone rings, reuse existing components or replace as necessary. Follow manufacturer guidelines for bedding in new rotors and pads to optimize braking performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRaybestos rotors are manufactured to meet or exceed OEM standards, ensuring consistent quality and performance.
