TL;DR Aluminum/zinc coated cast iron with no disclosed iron grade, cross-referenced to the 2017-2022 Honda CR-V's front brake package. Rated for daily driving, no published runout tolerance, and owners broadly report rust-resistant surfaces across platforms.
The 26011618 is a vented QuietCast-line front rotor. Bosch does not publish a specific iron grade for this part number, only a generic cast-iron designation. An aluminum/zinc coating covers the hat and vanes; owners broadly report rust-resistant surfaces across seasons, with an occasional off-platform rust report. Vented, OEM-style vane design matches the CR-V's daily-driver front package; factory mill balancing is claimed, but no numeric runout tolerance is published for this SKU. Fitment to the CR-V's front disc numbers is cross-referenced to CCT's standard.
Right pick for a 2017-2022 CR-V owner who wants a rotor cross-referenced to the genuine Honda part numbers, from an established brand with a disclosed anti-corrosion coating. Skip if you need a confirmed OE-supplier casting or published runout tolerance.
No chemical exposure pathway: inert cast-iron part, no SDS. Brake service stirs up accumulated dust: wear a dust mask, never blow it out with compressed air, that belongs to the brake system. Recyclable as ferrous scrap through parts stores.
It is the front rotor for the 2017-2022 Honda CR-V (5th generation), cross-referenced to Honda's own front brake disc part number 45251-TVC-A00, which superseded the earlier 45251-TLA-A00 and 45251-TNY-A00 numbers. The manufacturer's own listing also names other Honda, Acura, and Civic platforms, but those have not been independently CCT-verified for this add and are not asserted here.
Bosch does not publish a specific iron grade or metallurgical class for part number 26011618. The listing lists only a generic cast-iron material designation, so the metallurgy score holds at the neutral, undisclosed-grade anchor rather than a documented grade claim.
No. Bosch is not confirmed as an OE brake supplier to Honda; independent sources point to Nissin, Akebono, and Brembo as Honda's OE brake hardware suppliers. This part is an aftermarket cross-reference matched to Honda's OE part numbers, not a confirmed OE-identical casting.
Yes. Bosch discloses an aluminum/zinc coating on the non-friction surfaces, part of the QuietCast anti-corrosion line. Owners broadly report clean, rust-resistant surfaces across multiple platforms and seasons, with an occasional report of earlier rust on a different vehicle in a harsher climate.
No numeric lateral-runout or thickness-variation figure is published for this specific part number. Bosch claims factory mill precision balancing as a general line feature, but without a disclosed tolerance the rotor is scored conservatively on that dimension regardless of owner sentiment.
The Amazon listing for Bosch 26011618 QuietCast Premium Front Brake Rotor carries a California Prop 65 warning. California requires this warning on a very wide range of manufactured goods — including rubber, vinyl, plastic, and metal automotive parts — whenever trace exposure to any of roughly 900 listed substances (commonly phthalates or heavy metals) is possible, regardless of whether the specific product poses a meaningful health risk. As a passive accessory, Bosch 26011618 QuietCast Premium Front Brake Rotor has no Safety Data Sheet, so there's no chemistry breakdown to translate beyond that.

Per manufacturer cross-reference, not a physical test fit. A single generation often forks by engine, trim, and market.
