Product Description

Rear Brake Rotor for Polaris 5211849, 5243678

Our Stainless Steel Aftermarket Rotor Disc Brake is meticulously crafted for Polaris ATV enthusiasts and professionals seeking uncompromised performance. The rotor functions by interacting with the brake caliper and pads, generating the necessary friction to efficiently slow and stop the vehicle. This process is optimized for off-road application scenarios, including navigating muddy trails and wet terrain, ensuring dependable braking when it matters most.

This 178mm OD rotor is a perfect fit for various Polaris models such as the Scrambler 500, Magnum 500 (excluding 4×4 HDS models), and Trail Boss 330, directly replacing OEM parts 5211849 and 5243678. Manufactured from tempered stainless steel, it provides exceptional durability and resistance to corrosion from environmental elements.

Related Questions

1. What brands are best for brake rotors?

Wagner, Centric, Raybestos, Bosch, Hipsen are all good brands. But within the brands they offer different quality levels. Buy coated rotors for the best rust protection.

2. How do I know my brake rotor size?

The size is typically stamped or engraved on the rotor’s edge, making it visible without removing the wheel. Or simply get the improper measurement tool, and measure outside diameter and thickness. Those 2 dimensions will tell you what parts you need.

3. Is it better to get coated or uncoated rotors?

Living in a cold, wet climate also tends to wear down uncoated rotors faster due to a mix of near-constant moisture and abrasive road salt tearing into the metal. On the other hand, coated rotors will prevent corrosion buildup for significantly longer than their uncoated counterparts.

4. Are OEM rotors coated?

Rotors are coated from the manufacturer to prevent rust before installation. You should clean off any coating that comes on the swept surfaces when installing them so there’s no contamination to affect braking.
