The disc is constructed from a single segment of Japanese SUS 420 stainless steel, heat-treated to HRC 36+-2 standards.
It is designed as a replacement for Original Equipment (OE) on specific Harley Davidson models. It is crucial to verify the technical specifications (Outer Diameter, Inner Diameter, Bolt Hole details, Thickness) against your motorcycle's current parts to confirm compatibility.
A typical bedding-in procedure involves a series of moderate-speed stops, gradually increasing intensity without coming to a complete stop. Allow the brakes to cool between cycles. Consult a service manual for specific recommendations for your motorcycle model.
This heat treatment process enhances the hardness and durability of the stainless steel, providing better resistance to wear and maintaining optimal performance under high temperatures.
While designed for performance, it's recommended to use brake pads that are compatible with stainless steel rotors and meet your desired braking characteristics. Consult your mechanic or pad manufacturer for recommendations.
The minimum thickness for this brake disc is 5 mm. If the disc wears down to this limit, it should be replaced.
This can be normal during the bedding-in period. Ensure the disc and pads are clean and properly installed. If noise persists after bedding in, check for loose mounting bolts or a warped disc.
Check brake pad condition and wear. Ensure the brake fluid is at the correct level and in good condition. Verify that the disc is not contaminated with oil or grease and that the brake system is properly bled.
Measure the disc thickness at multiple points. If significant variation is found, the disc may be warped and requires replacement. Ensure the wheel hub is not the cause of runout.
Compatibility: This disc is designed as a direct replacement for Original Equipment (OE) on specific Harley Davidson models. Always verify the Outer Diameter (292 mm), Inner Diameter (50.5 mm), Bolt Hole Circumference (82.5 mm), Bolt Hole Quantity (5), Bolt Hole Size (10.5 mm), and Thickness (5.8 mm, minimum 5 mm) against your motorcycle's current specifications or your service manual to ensure proper fitment.
Setup: Installation should ideally be performed by a qualified mechanic to ensure correct alignment and secure mounting. Ensure all mounting bolts are torqued to the manufacturer's specifications. After installation, a proper bedding-in procedure is recommended for optimal performance.
Care: Clean the brake disc regularly with a brake cleaner solvent specifically designed for motorcycle brake systems. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the stainless steel surface. Inspect the disc for wear and damage during routine maintenance. Ensure the Minimum Thickness (5 mm) is not reached; replacement is necessary if the disc wears down to this limit.
