Marred edge on rotor side. Scrap?

Hi guys, im in the middle of cleaning the carbon off my rotors. I found some marring on the edge here. Would this be okay to re-use?



Look like little tiny burr marks...the face is okay however.

as long as the rotor (the slots) specs out and it's clean, then use it. i wouldn't worry about the imperfections you've shown. they are not going to keep the side seals from doing their job. maybe use some machine oil and like 320 or 400 wet paper on it.

Copy that. Yea ive specced everything and fortunately the slots are within the appropriate tolerances.

if everything else is ok on that rotor, i would just make sure there aren't any sharp sticky out bits on that rotor, and run it

Not at all, knock the edge down so that its similar to the rest of the edges and call it good. All you're trying to do is remove potential hot spots.
