About the Raybestos Element 3 Product Line

The Raybestos Element 3 line focuses on delivering reliable braking components that meet or exceed OEM specifications. This product line emphasizes quality materials and precise manufacturing processes, providing rotors that maintain consistent performance and durability. The 982685FZN rotor benefits from this approach, offering a full cast iron vented rotor designed for effective heat management and long service life.

Product Details and Specifications

This disc brake rotor features a full cast iron construction, which provides the necessary strength and thermal capacity for demanding braking applications. The vented design allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, reducing heat buildup and minimizing the risk of brake fade. With a nominal thickness of 1.26 inches (32 mm) and a discard thickness of 1.157 inches (29.4 mm), this rotor ensures safe replacement intervals. The rotor measures 12.992 inches (330 mm) in outside diameter and 7.449 inches (189.2 mm) inside diameter, fitting the specified mounting pattern of 5 bolt holes on a 4.409 inch (112 mm) bolt circle diameter. The non-directional brake surface allows for flexible installation without concern for rotor orientation.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors on Mercedes-Benz GLE350
• Addresses brake pulsation and vibration issues
• Improves braking performance by restoring proper rotor thickness
• Helps reduce brake fade during extended or heavy braking
• Suitable for routine maintenance and brake system overhauls

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor surface and hub are clean and free of rust or debris before installation. Verify the rotor thickness to confirm it is above the discard limit of 1.157 inches (29.4 mm). Use proper torque specifications for the 5 mounting bolts to avoid rotor warping. Since this rotor is non-directional, it can be installed on either side of the vehicle without concern for rotation direction. ABS tone ring and bearings are not included and should be inspected separately.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Raybestos Element 3 rotors are manufactured to meet strict quality standards, ensuring consistent performance and durability. This rotor is designed to match OEM specifications for the Mercedes-Benz GLE350, providing reliable braking performance. Warranty details should be confirmed with the product documentation or supplier.
