Raybestos R-Line Product Line Details
The R-Line by Raybestos focuses on providing reliable brake hardware components designed to meet OEM specifications. This product line emphasizes precision and durability, making it suitable for professional brake system repairs and maintenance. The BA80103 disc brake rotor shim is part of this line, offering a specific rotor runout correction to maintain optimal brake rotor alignment on Cadillac CTS models.
Product Description and Functionality
The BA80103 disc brake rotor shim is engineered to address rotor runout issues by providing a correction amount of 0.003 inches. Rotor runout occurs when the brake rotor wobbles or deviates from its true rotational axis, which can cause brake pulsation, uneven pad wear, and noise. By installing this shim, technicians can fine-tune the rotor alignment, improving braking smoothness and extending the life of brake components on Cadillac CTS vehicles.
Common Applications and Problem Solving
- Corrects rotor runout to reduce brake pedal pulsation
- Minimizes uneven brake pad wear caused by rotor misalignment
- Reduces brake noise related to rotor vibration
- Helps maintain consistent braking performance
- Supports proper rotor fitment during brake system repairs
Installation Notes and Tips
When installing the Raybestos R-Line BA80103 shim, ensure the rotor and hub surfaces are clean and free of debris. Proper torque specifications should be followed to avoid introducing additional runout. It is recommended to measure rotor runout before and after shim installation to verify correction. This part is designed specifically for Cadillac CTS models, so confirm vehicle compatibility prior to installation.
