The Shimano SM-RT26 is a dependable entry-level disc brake rotor that delivers consistent, controlled stopping power across everyday riding conditions.

Highlights

  • Consistent, predictable braking for daily riding and commuting
  • Standard 160mm diameter suits a wide range of hubs and frames
  • Universal 6-bolt (ISO) mount fits common Shimano-compatible disc hubs
  • Supplied anti-loosening lock washers help keep the bolts secure
  • One-piece stainless steel construction for durability and corrosion resistance
  • Designed specifically for use with Shimano resin (organic) brake pads

Reliable everyday braking

Built from one-piece stainless steel, the SM-RT26 provides steady, repeatable braking performance for general road, touring and city use. It is a sensible like-for-like replacement when your existing rotor is worn or damaged.

Easy, secure installation

The rotor uses the universal 6-bolt (ISO 6B) mounting pattern and comes complete with six fixing screws and three anti-loosening lock washers, so you have everything needed to fit it to a compatible disc hub and keep the hardware torqued securely.

Compatibility & fit

This is a single 160mm rotor with a 6-bolt (ISO) mount, designed to fit any standard 6-bolt disc hub. It is intended for use with Shimano resin (organic) brake pads only — do not pair it with metal/sintered pads. Confirm your brake calliper and frame/fork are rated for a 160mm rotor before fitting.

This Shimano rotor is covered by Shimano's standard manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship (normal wear from braking is excluded). For any warranty support, please return the item to Tune Cycles and our team will assist you with the claim.
