Detailed Product Description

This StopTech Select Sport Cross-Drilled & Slotted Disc Brake Rotor is specifically designed for use on Ford Expedition, F-150, and Lincoln Navigator vehicles. The rotor’s vented construction features pillar-style vanes that promote airflow to reduce heat buildup during braking. The cross-drilled and slotted surface helps to evacuate gases, dust, and water, which can improve brake pad contact and reduce the risk of brake fade under demanding conditions.

With a nominal thickness of 1.185 inches (30.100 mm) and a discard thickness of 1.091 inches (27.700 mm), this rotor meets strict specifications to ensure safety and performance. The rotor’s 12.126-inch (308.000 mm) outside diameter and 5-lug hole pattern with a 135 mm bolt circle diameter provide a precise fit for the specified vehicle models. The absence of an ABS tone ring means this rotor is intended for vehicles without ABS sensor integration on the rotor itself.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Reduces brake fade during towing or heavy load conditions on Ford F-150 and Expedition
• Improves braking response and heat management for Lincoln Navigator in urban and highway driving
• Helps prevent rotor warping caused by excessive heat buildup
• Minimizes brake dust accumulation and improves pad bite consistency
• Addresses noise and vibration issues associated with worn or uneven rotors

Installation Notes and Tips

• Ensure rotor thickness is above discard thickness (1.091 inches) before installation
• Use proper torque specifications for the 12 mm stud threads and 1.75 mm bolt pitch
• Inspect hub and bearing components (inner bearing #410.91018, outer bearing #410.91012) during installation
• Clean rotor surface before mounting to remove any protective coatings or debris
• Compatible with hub and rotor mounting system; bearings and seals are not included
