It also has an anti-loosening tightening plate for a secure installation. The rotor blade features a stainless steel/aluminum/stainless steel 3 layer-sandwich structure. With an alloy lock ring and a mud shedding design, it's lightweight, heat-resistant, and reduces fade and noise. It also extends the pad life. It belongs to the DEORE XT T780 Series and weighs about 135g (160 mm).

Using this Shimano disc brake rotor is straightforward. Just install it securely using the anti-loosening tightening plate. Make sure to align it properly with your brake system. When riding, the rotor will provide consistent braking performance thanks to the Ice Technology. As for maintenance, regularly clean the rotor to remove mud and debris. Check the alloy lock ring and the tightening plate periodically to ensure they are in good condition. If you notice excessive wear or noise, it might be time to replace the pads or the rotor. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the rotor's surface.
