Product Details

DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors are machined to tight tolerances, finished with a non-directional surface, and inspected for balance and critical dimensions. The coating is designed to resist rust better than conventional paint or zinc finishes, while still wearing away safely during braking. The 5000 Advanced ceramic pads are formulated for stable friction and consistent pedal response, and the included hardware is engineered to OE form, fit, and function.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What This Brake Kit Helps Address

• Front brake pulsation from worn rotors
• Squealing or noise from aged pads and hardware
• Uneven pad wear caused by fatigued hardware
• Corrosion on exposed rotor surfaces
• Reduced stopping performance from worn friction components

Installation Notes

Compatible With 2003-2006 Mercedes-Benz S430, front and 2003-2006 Mercedes-Benz S500, front. The rotors are shipped dry and ready to install, which helps reduce prep time during a front brake service. Follow the vehicle service manual for torque specs, pad bedding, and brake system inspection before returning the car to service.

Quality Assurance

Each rotor is manufactured to OE specifications, then inspected for balance and critical attributes. DFC states that every rotor includes a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
