Overview
The Baer Brakes Claw performance rear rotor set, part number 31410-020, is a pair of cross-drilled and slotted replacement brake rotors for the 2005–2025 Nissan Frontier, 2005–2015 Nissan Xterra and 2009–2012 Suzuki Equator. The rotors are sold as a set of two, and Baer describes them as direct replacement parts for the rear discs.
The slots and drilled holes give gas and dust a route out from between the pad and rotor during braking. This supports consistent pedal feel and reduces brake fade. Each rotor has a zinc-plated finish that looks bright behind open-center wheels. The vane structure is designed for cooling and durability.
Key features
- Cross-drilled holes are chamfered to minimize stress cracking.
- The slotted and drilled friction surface vents gas and dust away from the pad face.
- Enhanced vane structure for cooling.
- Mill balanced, premium direct replacement rotor design.
- Zinc-plated finish for a bright look in open-center wheels.
- One-piece full cast construction with a directional brake surface.
Choosing the right rear setup
Cast iron rotors absorb and release heat more slowly than some lighter alloys, so pad compound matters. A pad rated for the heat your driving produces will last longer and keep the pedal steady, especially on loaded trips or long descents where the brakes work hard for extended periods.
Because this set is sold without pads or caliper hardware, plan to inspect the caliper slide pins, boots and bracket bolts while the wheels are off. Seized pins can drag a pad against the new rotor and cause uneven wear. Keep the brake fluid in good condition too, since a soft pedal can be mistaken for a rotor problem.
- Replace worn pads at the same time
- Lubricate slide pins with brake-rated grease
- Check the wheel bearing for play before fitting

Vehicle fitment
The fitment covers the rear axle of the 2005-2025 Nissan Frontier, the 2005-2015 Nissan Xterra and the 2009-2012 Suzuki Equator, in both 2WD and 4WD versions.
Model years outside the ranges above and other Nissan or Suzuki models are not covered by this list. Confirm your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
Installation notes
These are direct replacement rotors, so the intended mounting matches the factory rear disc. Clean the hub face and the rotor mating surface before the wheel is fitted, and check that the wheel seats flat against the rotor. Bed in new pads and rotors with a series of moderate stops before heavy braking. Compare any used rotor with the discard thickness of 16 before reinstalling it, and support the vehicle on stands during work.
What’s included
The set contains two rear rotors, sold as a pair. The ABS tone ring is not included.
Not included: Brake pads and caliper hardware are not part of this rotor set.
