Centric 320.61080F Disc Brake Rotor - Front
Centric GCX Front Brake Rotor Overview
The Centric GCX Elemental Protection Disc Brake Rotor - Full Coating is built for front brake service on select Ford, Mercury applications. Part number 320.61080F is engineered to match OE performance while adding full-surface corrosion protection on non-mating areas for a cleaner appearance and longer service life.
Compatible With 2005-2007 Ford Five Hundred, front; 2005-2007 Ford Freestyle, front; 2007 Ford Freestyle, front; 2008-2009 Ford Taurus, front; 2008-2009 Ford Taurus X, front; 2008-2009 Mercury Sable, front; and 2005-2007 Mercury Montego, front. The Centric GCX rotor line is application-specific, with coating patterns and metallurgy selected to align with the brake pad friction type and OEM-style rotor requirements.
Key Features
- Fully coated disc finish with coated hat for improved rust and corrosion resistance
- Vented rotor design with smooth surface type
- Outside diameter: 12.402 in. / 315.000 mm
- Nominal thickness: 1.098 in. / 27.900 mm
- Discard thickness: 1.043 in. / 26.500 mm
- 5-lug pattern with 4.500 in. / 114.300 mm bolt circle
- Center hole diameter: 2.677 in. / 68.000 mm
- Straight vane style and floating disc mounting
- Part number 320.61080F for front brake rotor replacement
Product Details
Centric GCX and GCX FC rotors are designed around OE-style fit and metallurgy, using Centric’s RS200 finish on non-mating surfaces to help protect against rust while maintaining a clean look over time. The rotor construction uses Centric’s high-carbon alloy formulations to match the OEM metallurgical profile for the listed Ford, Mercury, and Taurus-family vehicles. If you are replacing a worn front rotor on a 2008-2009 Ford Taurus or a 2005-2007 Ford Freestyle, 320.61080F provides the correct front brake rotor dimensions and coating profile for the application.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
Common Problems This Rotor Addresses
- Front brake pulsation from rotor wear or thickness variation
- Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
- Uneven braking feel caused by worn or heat-cycled rotors
- Reduced rotor appearance from corrosion on the hat and outer surfaces
- Noise or vibration associated with brake rotor deterioration
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify rotor dimensions, hub fitment, and bolt pattern before installation. Clean the hub mounting surface thoroughly to help prevent runout-related brake pulsation, and inspect pads, calipers, and hardware condition during rotor replacement. For best results, follow the vehicle manufacturer’s brake service procedure and bed in new pads according to the pad maker’s instructions.
Quality Assurance
Centric designs the GCX rotor line to meet OE performance expectations while improving corrosion protection on non-mating surfaces. The application-specific coating pattern and metallurgy selection are intended to support proper fit and consistent brake service on the listed Ford, Mercury, and Taurus applications.
