Where is the minimum allowable thickness for a brake rotor found?
You’ll need to know the minimum thickness. The rotor’s minimum thickness tells you the minimum operational level of your rotor. This level can be found engraved on the sides of the rotor, within the veins of the rotor, or on the hat of the rotor.
What is the minimum brake disc thickness?
37 mm
Providing continuous cracks are not apparent, minimum brake disc thickness is 37 mm. Brake discs should be replaced in pairs. Brake pads should also be replaced when new brake discs are fitted. If this instruction is not adhered to, there is a danger that braking performance could be seriously reduced.
What’s the minimum thickness of a Toyota brake pad?
Toyota says that the minimum brake pad thickness is 1mm, so that’s 7mm of wear on each pad, or a total of 14mm that the brakes, and components can safely handle. So using a brake rotor that is 25mm rather than 26mm won’t affect how the system works or doesn’t work.
What’s the minimum rotor thickness for a Toyota?
I read somewhere that the minimun thickness is stamped on the hub bit there is nothing on my rotors. I also recall reading somewhere that Toyota rotors come with a 25 mm thickness and 23 mm is considered minimum. Does that apply to non-Toyota rotors as well? Original thickness for 99 Camry front disc is 28mm, minimum is 26mm.
How can I check the thickness of my brake rotors?
The rotor thickness should be measured using a micrometer. The thickness should also be gauged before and after the rotors have been turned, to check for proper thickness or depth specification. 1. Raise the front or rear of the vehicle, depending on the rotors that need to be measured, and secure the vehicle with the jack stand.
What’s the minimum thickness for a Toyota front disc?
I also recall reading somewhere that Toyota rotors come with a 25 mm thickness and 23 mm is considered minimum. Does that apply to non-Toyota rotors as well? Original thickness for 99 Camry front disc is 28mm, minimum is 26mm.
