Overview
The Baer Brakes 6910165 is a left-side, 1-piece slotted replacement brake rotor for select Baer Brake systems. It is a 12 in vented cast iron rotor with a tall hat and a 5 x 4.75 in bolt pattern, sold individually as one rotor.
The rotor uses a curved vane design for cooling and is dynamically balanced for smoother running. Because the rotor is directional, it is intended for the left side only.
Key features
- Slotted surface type for the rotor face
- Curved vane design for optimum cooling
- Designed for rotor stability and resistance against distortion
- Dynamically balanced for vibration-free performance
- Full cast, one-piece construction with a tall hat
- Directional brake surface for the left axle
- Performance grade type from Baer Brakes
Left and right rotors
Directional rotors are built to rotate in one direction and to sit on one side of the vehicle, so the curved vanes and slotted face must be oriented the same way as the old rotor. Pairs of rotors on an axle should be matched by side and design to keep braking even. Keep the old rotor nearby while fitting so the orientation can be checked.
Slotted faces wear pads at a different rate than smooth faces, and pad dust can collect in the slots over time. Brush out debris during pad changes and check the slots for cracks or deep scoring. Vented rotors need airflow, so keep the cooling vanes clean and free of mud or packed grit.
- Check rotation direction against the old rotor
- Replace pads at the same time as the rotor
- Clean the slots at each pad change
- Keep the wheel hub and bearing in good condition

Vehicle fitment
It is made for select Baer Brake systems, so confirm fit for your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
Because the rotor is directional and specific to the left side, it does not fit the right side. Confirm your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
Installation notes
Check that the curved vanes and slotted face are oriented as the old left rotor was before fitting. The ABS tone ring is not included, so check whether your hub needs one. Brake components are safety-critical, so have the installation checked by a qualified technician.
What’s included
One left-side 1-piece slotted replacement rotor, sold individually.
Not included: the ABS tone ring and the right-side rotor.
