Product Details

DFC GEOSPEC rotors are machined to OE-style tolerances and built from G3000/G11H18 cast iron specification for durability and stability. The coated surface helps resist rust better than conventional paint or zinc finishes, while the dry shipping process saves installation time. The 5000 Advanced pads are post cured and scorched to reduce initial break-in requirements and deliver stable friction from the first stop. This rear brake kit is a practical choice for Mercedes-Benz SLK300, SLK350, and SLK250 rear brake replacement service, including Sport Package and non-Sport Package applications where listed.

Common Repair Uses

• Uneven braking feel during stop-and-go driving
• Reduced pad contact quality from worn rotor finish
• Brake vibration caused by aged rear brake components

Installation Notes

Inspect calipers, slides, and mounting points before installation. Clean the hub face thoroughly so the coated rotors seat correctly, and follow the vehicle-specific torque sequence during assembly. The rotor coating is removed naturally by the brake pads during normal use, so no special preparation is required. Verify rear fitment by model, year, and Sport Package status before ordering part number 4512-63196.

Quality Assurance

Each DFC GEOSPEC rotor is inspected for critical dimensions and balance, and the finished rotor set is covered by a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. DFC 5000 Advanced pads are post cured, scorched, and assembled with premium shims to support consistent braking performance and NVH control.
