Product Details and Specifications

This disc brake rotor features a vented design with straight vanes to optimize airflow and cooling during braking. The rotor’s coated hat finish offers protection against corrosion, extending the rotor’s service life. With a floating disc mounting system, the rotor allows for slight movement to reduce stress and improve alignment with the brake pads. The rotor measures 10.945 inches (278 mm) in outside diameter and 1.850 inches (47 mm) in overall height, with a center hole diameter of 2.504 inches (63.600 mm). It includes four stud/lug holes sized at 0.541 inches (13.750 mm) diameter, suitable for the specified vehicle models.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Reduces brake fade caused by excessive heat buildup
• Improves braking consistency in wet or dusty conditions
• Minimizes rotor warping through enhanced cooling
• Helps maintain brake pad contact by removing debris and gases
• Prevents premature rotor corrosion with coated hat finish

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure compatibility with Ford Contour and Mercury Cougar models before installation. Verify rotor thickness and discard limits to confirm rotor serviceability. Use proper torque specifications for mounting bolts and inspect brake pads for wear during rotor replacement. The floating disc mounting requires careful alignment to avoid uneven wear. It is recommended to replace rotors in pairs for balanced braking performance.
