Overview
The Baer Brakes 6910983 is a left-side, 1-piece slotted replacement brake rotor for select Baer Brake systems. It is a 13 inch vented cast iron rotor with five studs on a 4.50 inch bolt circle and a 2.78 inch center hole.
The casting is made from premium materials, with a curved vane design that supports cooling. The rotor is dynamically balanced for vibration-free running and engineered for stability and resistance to distortion. Because it is directional, it is intended for the left side of the vehicle only.
Key features
- Slotted braking surface on a directional left-side rotor
- Curved vane design that Baer says supports cooling
- Full cast, one-piece construction with a short hat
- Dynamically balanced for vibration-free performance
- Performance grade cast iron material
Signs a rotor needs replacing
Brake rotors wear with every stop, so inspection matters as much as the initial fit. Look for deep grooves on the braking face, a blue or heat-discolored surface, cracks near the hat, and a pulse felt through the pedal. Any of these signs means the rotor is near the end of its useful life, and new pads should be matched to the new surface rather than set against a worn face.
Directional rotors add one more check. Confirm the orientation before mounting and make sure the rotor sits flat against the hub face. Clean rust and debris from the hub so the rotor seats squarely and runs true.
- Measure runout with a dial indicator before torquing the lug nuts
- Replace pads together with the rotor for an even contact face
- Keep the existing ABS tone ring clean if it is reused
- Follow the pad instructions when bedding in new pads

Vehicle fitment
It is a replacement rotor for select Baer Brake systems. Check your vehicle’s year, model and trim against the application before ordering.
Because the rotor is left-side only, the right-side replacement is a different part. Confirm your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
Installation notes
Match the rotor to the left side of the vehicle before mounting, since the directional design is not meant to be swapped side to side. No ABS tone ring comes with the rotor, so any tone ring on your existing hub must be reused or sourced separately. Brake work affects stopping distance, so have the installation checked by a qualified technician.
What’s included
One left-side replacement rotor, supplied individually.
Not included: Brake pads, calipers, mounting hardware and an ABS tone ring.
