Designed to meet the demands of daily driving and spirited use, this rotor offers enhanced heat dissipation and consistent stopping power.

• Cross-drilled and slotted surface for improved heat and gas dissipation
• Vented rotor design to reduce brake fade
• Coated hat finish to resist corrosion
• Floating disc mounting for better thermal expansion
• Compatible with 5-lug wheel setups on specified vehicles

Detailed Product Features and Specifications

This disc brake rotor features a vented design with straight vanes that promote efficient airflow, helping to maintain optimal operating temperatures during braking. The rotor measures 11.457 inches (291 mm) in outside diameter with an overall height of 2.594 inches (65.9 mm). It has a nominal thickness of 1.030 inches (26.16 mm) and a discard thickness of 0.974 inches (24.75 mm), ensuring a long service life before replacement is necessary.

The rotor surface is cross-drilled and slotted, which aids in removing brake dust, water, and gases generated during braking. This surface type enhances pad bite and reduces the risk of brake fade under heavy use. The hat area is coated to protect against rust and corrosion, extending the rotor's durability.

Mounting features include a 5-lug hole pattern with a bolt circle diameter of 4.5 inches (114.3 mm) and stud/lug holes sized at 0.598 inches (15.2 mm). The center hole diameter is 2.827 inches (71.8 mm), and the rotor weighs approximately 18 lbs (8.18 kg). This rotor does not include ABS tone rings or bearings.
