Overview
The Baer Brakes 6929172 is a 13.570 inch, 1-piece right-side replacement brake rotor with a slotted friction face, made for select Baer Brake systems. Its vented cast iron body is directional, with a 1.100 inch nominal thickness and a 3.055 inch center bore.
Baer’s stated design includes a curved vane layout for cooling, purpose built castings and dynamic balancing. Five studs sit on 4.50 and 5.00 inch bolt circles. The part is a performance grade rotor without a drum in hat and without an ABS tone ring, so check the hub arrangement on your vehicle when you compare it with the original.
Key features
- Slotted friction face for the right side
- Full cast, one-piece construction
- Vented design with curved vanes that Baer describes as aiding cooling
- Directional surface, not interchangeable with the left side
- Dynamically balanced for smooth running
- Performance grade type
Hub and bearing checks
Before fitting any brake rotor, clean the hub face and remove rust or old corrosion with a wire brush. Even a small amount of buildup can push the rotor off true, causing pulsation under braking. Check that the center bore sits flush on the hub register and that the lug studs are straight and undamaged. Have a shop measure runout if the pedal feels rough after installation.
Wheel bearings and hub seals deserve a look while the rotor is off. Play in the bearing or a leaking seal will affect rotor wear and braking stability. Tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern to the specified torque, and recheck them after the first few drives. Slotted faces can leave a fine dust trail on new rotors, and this is normal during the first few stops.
- Clean the hub face before mounting
- Inspect studs for damage or thread wear
- Recheck lug nut torque after early drives

Vehicle fitment
It is made for select Baer Brake systems, so match the system and hub setup to your vehicle before ordering.
Confirm your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
Installation notes
Start by matching the 3.055 inch center bore and the five-stud pattern to the hub, then keep the right-side rotor separate from the left. A brake shop should look at the caliper bracket and wheel-side clearance before the new rotor is bolted on.
What’s included
One 1-piece right-side slotted replacement rotor.
Not included: the left-side rotor, pads, calipers and any hub bearings.
