The DBA 5000 Series T3 Slotted Front Brake Rotor is a high-performance, composite two-piece brake rotor designed for demanding street, track, and rally applications. Featuring a high carbon cast-iron ring paired with an aerospace-grade aluminum hat (T6061-T6), this rotor offers exceptional durability, heat management, and weight reduction. The combination of materials ensures optimal performance under strenuous conditions, with the aluminum hat reducing unsprung weight, improving handling, and minimizing heat transfer to the hub. This innovative design helps maintain consistent braking performance and prolongs component life.
Constructed with precision using National Aerospace Standards (NAS) bolts and crimp nuts, the DBA 5000 Series rotor provides a secure, reliable fit, making it a perfect direct replacement for your factory brake system. The slotted design enhances heat dissipation and brake pad cleaning, reducing brake fade and improving overall braking efficiency. The rotor’s high-quality XG-150 high carbon alloyed iron ensures strength and resistance to warping, while the Thermo-graphic Paint markings (THGP) facilitate thermal profiling during installation and maintenance.
This rotor is suitable for owners looking to upgrade their vehicle’s braking system for better heat management, reduced weight, and enhanced performance. It is compatible with the factory mounting setup, making installation straightforward. Whether for daily driving, spirited street use, or competitive motorsport, the DBA 5000 Series T3 Slotted Front Brake Rotor delivers reliable, high-performance braking with improved durability and heat resistance. The rotor comes with moisture-proof packaging to prevent corrosion and maintain quality during storage and transit, ensuring you receive a premium, ready-to-install component for your vehicle.
