The Story
DFC Brake Kit with Coated Rotors
The DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads and hardware kit is built for drivers who want a complete brake service package with OE-style fit and finish. Part number 4512-01014 combines coated rotors, ceramic pads, and brake hardware in one disc brake kit for cleaner installation and consistent braking performance.
Key Features
- DFC GEOSPEC coated brake rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- Dry-processed rotors arrive ready to install without oil removal
- G3000/G11H18 cast iron rotor construction for OE-style durability and stability
- Non-directional rotor finish for smoother pad bed-in and quieter stops
- DFC 5000 Advanced ceramic brake pads with post-cured friction material
- Scorched pads to reduce initial break-in time
- Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved NVH control
- Hardware kit uses PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel
Product Details
DFC designed this brake service kit for drivers replacing worn rotors, pads, and related brake hardware at the same time. The coated rotors help resist rust better than conventional painted or zinc-coated rotors, while the machined finish supports even pad contact and smoother braking. The 5000 Advanced ceramic pads are formulated for stable friction and reduced noise, making this kit a practical choice for daily driving and routine brake maintenance. Part number 4512-01014 is a direct-fit style brake kit for applications that call for a complete rotor, pad, and hardware service package.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
What It Helps Fix
- Brake noise from worn or fatigued hardware
- Uneven pad wear caused by caliper movement or weak spring tension
- Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
- Longer stopping distances from worn friction material
- Vibration or harshness during braking
Installation Notes
Compatible With the listed vehicle application only; verify rotor size, axle position, and brake package before ordering. For best results, replace pads, rotors, and hardware together during a complete brake service. Clean the hub surface before installation and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s torque specifications and bedding procedure.
Quality Assurance
Each rotor is inspected for critical dimensions and balance, and all vented rotors are electronically mill-balanced when required. DFC states that the rotors carry a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. The brake pads are post-cured, scorched, and assembled with premium shims to support stable friction performance and reduced noise.
