Warning: not suitable for metal brake pads. For resin brake pads only. - Type: SHIMANO brake disc. - Design: 6 holes. - Diameter: 160 mm. - Model: ESMRT56S. - Note: only for resin brake pads. Not suitable for metal brake pads. Review: Very pleased - Very high quality rotas. A strong design with lots of cooling holes. Easy to fit. Substantially heavier than the old ones I removed. Lots of extra stopping power! I'm using these on a hybrid bike. desertcart was the cheapest place I could find these rotas. I've previously tried bikehut and lifeline branded rotas, but found they were of a more inferior quality. It it always well-worth combining new rotas with new sets of brake pads at the same time. I found these Clarks ones (also sold by desertcart) are a good match Clarks Organic Disc Brake Pads for Shimano Deore Br-M515/M475/M525/M465/M495, Tektro Auriga Comp./Dracom Moto Aquila/HDC-300/Mota Expect your brakes to be very squeeky for the first couple of miles. They need an opportunity to bed-in and for any residue oil / solvents applied at the factory to burn off. Review: Brilliant stopping power, great price for replacing yearly. - Brilliant quality, bought these to replace the original disc rotors that came with my Cannondale Badboy after contamination caused them to slip. These rotors happen to be the same rotors that came on my new bike Cannondale CAAD12 2019. The stopping power along with my new pads is brilliant and feels like new again. The package came with the rotors, 6 bolts & two spacers. At this price you can afford to replace them once a year to keep your brakes sharp. ## Features - Resin pad only - Mounts to IS six-bolt hubs - Includes rotor fixing bolts with anti-loosen plate - Shimano Reference Number: SM-RT56 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00971FX82 | | Best Sellers Rank | 20,590 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) 16 in Rotors | | Brand | SHIMANO | | Brand Name | SHIMANO | | Compatible with Vehicle Type | Bicycle | | Country Of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 1,226 Reviews | | Exterior Finish | Silver | | Exterior finish | Silver | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00689228308305, 04524667308300 | | Included Components | 160 mm RT56 Deore brake disc 6 | | Item Diameter | 160 Millimetres | | Item Type Name | Brake disc. | | Item Weight | 0.2 Kilograms | | Item diameter | 160 Millimetres | | Manufacturer | Shimano | | Manufacturer Part Number | E-SMRT56S | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | no Manufacturer Guarantee | | Material | Metal | | Material Type | Metal | | Model Number | ESMRT56S | | OEM Equivalent Part Number | E-SMRT56S | | UPC | 692492102302 689228308305 | | Vehicle service type | Bicycle | ## Product Details - **Brand:** SHIMANO - **Exterior finish:** Silver - **Global Trade Identification Number:** 00689228308305, 04524667308300 - **Item diameter:** 160 Millimetres - **Manufacturer:** Shimano - **Material:** Metal - **UPC:** 692492102302 689228308305 - **Vehicle service type:** Bicycle ## Images ![Shimano SMRT56M Disc Brake - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71UKPtZogeL.jpg) ![Shimano SMRT56M Disc Brake - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/716jTkKeoeL.jpg) ![Shimano SMRT56M Disc Brake - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71qK0hQUlYL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: does it come with 2 disc brakes or only one?** A: Only one disc **Q: Will this fit a honda cbr600f4i 2003 model** A: No, definitely not!

Bought to replace a bent disc on my Wife's new boardman hybrid. The bike was collected from a long way from home and we didn't notice the bent disc until we got home. At this price and with a quick amazon prime delivery it was a better option than taking the bike back to the shop to get repaired. ## Frequently Bought Together - Shimano SM-RT56 Disc Brake Rotor 6-Bolt (160-mm) - Shimano SM-RT56 Disc Brake Rotor 6-Bolt (180-mm) - SHIMANO B05S-RX Disc Brake Pad and Spring - Resin Compound, Stainless Steel Back Plate --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/48336810-shimano-smrt56m-disc-brake](https://www.desertcart.be/products/48336810-shimano-smrt56m-disc-brake) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-07-16*
