    Brake Disk Thickness

    Hi all,

    does anyone know the thickness of the standard brake disk when new? And when should it be changed?

    Thanks Klaus

      Hi all

      that sounds strange to me. Why? I installed EBC disks last spring and measured now the9 year old standard disks from SOC Spares which I took off the Stag. They have worked ca. 70.000 km and still have a thickness of 14,1 mm. The unused rusty rim measures 14.5 mm. Is that stii the standard thickness of new disks today? I aske because I found already a suitable corner where I can throw my EBC grooved disks into when I have change back to standard. But thats another sad and costly story. I intend to use the old ones again although I have wire wheels.

      Meanwhile I found an old info from Mike Allen which he faxed (!) me 10 years go:

      the minimum thickness is alowed to be 0,528 inches = 13,41 mm.

      Any other figures or comments?

        These after market ones say 14mm max 12mm min so you could well be right.

            Mind if I ask why, what was wrong with them?

            I am considering an upgrade to the BMW 525 vented disc as supplied by Monarch. Then I can transplant the Stag set to my PI

              Richard,

              the problem was/is judder and wobble,I tried a lot of things to get rid of that but no positive result.

              I will report second half of Nov. with pictures when I am back from a longer holiday trip.

              PS. What does "PI" stand for?

                  Klaus,

                  PI is the old Triumph term - Petrol Injection - for the fuel injection system used on TR6s (not North America) and 2.5PI Saloons.
