TRW Automotive AfterMarket DF4815 Brake Disc

The TRW Automotive AfterMarket DF4815 Brake Disc is a high‑performance braking component designed specifically for the Honda Accord series, including the VI generation (CK, CG, CH, CF, CL models). This disc delivers reliable stopping power and durability in both daily driving and spirited performance scenarios.

Key Features & Specifications

• Diameter: 260 mm – a standard size that matches the original equipment for most Accord VI rear wheels.
• Thickness: 10 mm – engineered to provide optimal heat dissipation while maintaining structural integrity.
• Material Composition: Advanced cast iron alloy with a high‑strength steel core, ensuring consistent performance under varying temperatures.
• Surface Finish: Smooth, factory‑grade finish that promotes even brake pad wear and reduces noise.
• Compatibility: Fits rear wheel assemblies on Honda Accord VI models from 1998 to 2002, including hatchback, sedan, and coupe variants.
• Installation: Designed for quick replacement; no special tools beyond standard brake system equipment are required.

Performance Benefits

The DF4815 disc is engineered to handle the thermal loads generated during aggressive braking. Its robust construction reduces the risk of warping, while the precise machining ensures a flat surface for even pad contact. Drivers can expect:

• Consistent stopping distances across a wide range of temperatures.
• Reduced brake fade during prolonged use, such as hill climbs or spirited driving.
• Lower noise and vibration thanks to the smooth surface finish and balanced design.
• Extended pad life due to even wear distribution.

Installation & Maintenance Guidance

When installing the DF4815 brake disc, follow these steps for optimal performance:

1. Remove the wheel and existing brake components.
2. Clean the rotor surface with a non‑abrasive cleaner to remove any debris or old brake dust.
3. Place the new disc onto the hub, ensuring it sits flush against the mounting surface.
4. Reinstall the caliper and secure all fasteners to the manufacturer’s torque specifications.
5. Apply a thin layer of anti‑seize compound on the rotor backing plate if recommended by the vehicle service manual.
6. Perform a brake system bleed to eliminate any air pockets in the hydraulic lines.

After installation, allow the brakes to break in for at least 50–100 miles. This procedure helps the pads and disc surface mate properly, ensuring optimal braking performance from day one.
