Raybestos Specialty Truck Rotors are the ultimate solution for noise-prone applications, including truck, medium duty and school bus applications. Vehicle-specific cooling vane configurations and application-specific iron combine to dampen noise and improve brake responsiveness. This ensures super smooth and ultra-quiet braking over a longer period of time.
Features & Benefits:
Enhanced Carbon Iron Material maximizes noise suppression
Cooling Vanes match OE specifications to ensure optimal cooling, reduced fade, and increased pad life
Either fully coated with a Grey Fusion 4.0™ coating or a black fusion coated hat for rust protection
Meets the SAE standard for tensile strength, providing structural integrity and maximum service life
Turned finish minimizes noise and improves responsiveness for smoother stops
Lateral runout of 0.002” or less and a minimal thickness variation of less than 0.0004”, ensuring less pedal pulsation, less brake noise, and extended pad life
Installation Tips
Always replace Brake Pads and inspect Calipers and Brake Hoses when installing new rotors
Suspend the caliper from the suspension using a Caliper Hanger to prevent damage to the brake hose
After removing the old rotor, clean the hub face with a Wire Brush to remove rust buildup and apply Copper Anti Seize to prevent future buildup. Rust or debris on the hub can cause rotor runout and lead to wheel vibration
Apply Brake Lube to caliper pins, clips, the edges of the brake pad mounting tabs, and the back side of the brake pads to ensure noise free braking. DO NOT apply lube to the friction side of the brake pads
Use a Caliper Piston Compressor to retract the caliper piston(s) and make room for the new, thicker brake pads
Open the master cylinder reservoir during piston compression to prevent pressure buildup. Keep an eye on the Brake Fluid level to ensure it does not overflow
After the job is complete, pump the brake pedal several times to push the caliper piston back up against the pads to ensure proper brake function
