rotor specs

I can not find the minimum thickness specification stamped on the brake rotor for my "new" 1979 300SD. I also have done a search on this forum but was unable to find the number.

What is the service thickness (or minimum thickness) for the front and rear rotors on my car?

Thanks

Augusta

fronts on the W116 are 22mm new, replace at 20mm. Rears are 10mm new, replace at 8.3mm

W123 Rotor thickness specification

I did search and found that the spec is stamped on the rotor (assuming MB part # I suspect)
dc88168 posted
On my 1985 300D Turbo, the rotor stamps indicated:

Front: Min: 10.5 mm (=0.4134 inch)

Rear: Min: 8.3 mm (=0.3268 inch)
Is this car a W123?
If not, what is the spec for W123 Rotors?
TIA

Yes Tony that is correct for the W123 although my book shows 10.6 on the fronts, but what's a tenth of a mm between friends
