Overview
The Baer Brakes 6910168 is a left, one-piece tall hat rotor measuring 12.000 inch in outside diameter and .810 inch thick, with a slotted, drilled and zinc-plated surface. It is a replacement rotor for select Baer brake systems. Confirm fit for your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
The one-piece design combines the friction ring and hat in a single full cast part, and the 2.224 overall height appears in the specifications. Zinc plating adds a protective coating to the rotor surface, while the slots and holes are cut into the friction face. The 5 x 4.75 inch bolt pattern and 2.780 inch register are the first measurements to compare.
Key features
- Full cast, one-piece construction in cast iron
- Slotted and drilled friction surface
- Zinc-plated finish for the rotor surface
- Center hole of 2.78 with a 2.780 inch register
- Curved vane design for cooling.
- Vented rotor with a directional brake surface for the left side
Checking the hub before fitting
A one-piece tall hat rotor combines the friction ring and hat in one casting, so the hub contact face and register carry all the alignment. Before installation, clean the hub face and remove any rust or old debris that could hold the rotor off true. A rotor that sits crooked can cause pulsing and uneven pad wear even when the part itself is sound.
Slotted, drilled and zinc-plated surfaces are common on performance rotors because the slots and holes help clear gas and debris from the pad. Pad choice still matters, and the pad compound should suit the rotor material and driving. Check the hub bolts for correct torque after the first few drives, since fasteners can settle on a new rotor.
- Clean the hub face and register before fitting
- Check the rotor for runout with a dial indicator if one is available
- Replace worn wheel studs or lug nuts that show damage
- Re-check the lug torque after the first few trips

Installation notes
Install only on the left side because the brake surface is directional. Confirm the 2.780 inch register matches your hub before fitting. Since no ABS tone ring is included, keep the existing one or have one fitted if your system requires it. Have the installation checked by a qualified brake technician.
What’s included
One left one-piece slotted, drilled and zinc-plated rotor, sold as each.
Not included: a brake drum or an ABS tone ring.
