Two-Piece Aerospace-Grade Construction. The DBA 5000 Series XS Cross Drilled and Slotted Rotor; Front features a high-performance two-piece design that combines a high carbon cast iron braking ring with a lightweight 6061-T6 aerospace-grade aluminum hat. This configuration reduces unsprung weight, improving handling and suspension responsiveness. The aluminum hat also minimizes heat transfer to the wheel hub, preserving surrounding components and enhancing overall thermal efficiency.
Cross Drilled and Slotted Surface Design. Engineered for both performance and aesthetics, the DBA 5000 Series XS Cross Drilled and Slotted Rotor; Front incorporates a non-directional cross drilled and slotted pattern. This design increases the number of exit points for brake dust, gases, and heat, resulting in cleaner pad contact, improved bite, and reduced fade. It’s a popular choice for show cars and performance builds alike, offering both visual appeal and functional superiority.
Thermal Stability Profiling (TSP). DBA’s proprietary Thermal Stability Profiling process realigns the microstructure of the DBA 5000 Series XS Cross Drilled and Slotted Rotor; Front’s iron, enhancing its ability to withstand extreme heat cycles. This treatment significantly improves rotor durability and reduces the risk of warping or cracking under aggressive driving conditions, making it ideal for track days, spirited street driving, and rally applications.
Kangaroo Paw Ventilation System. The DBA 5000 Series XS Cross Drilled and Slotted Rotor; Front features DBA’s patented Kangaroo Paw ventilation design, which uses 144 diamond and teardrop-shaped pillars to increase surface area and airflow. This system boosts cooling efficiency by up to 20% compared to traditional vane designs, helping maintain optimal braking temperatures and prolonging both rotor and pad life.
Thermographic Heat Paint Indicators. To assist with performance monitoring, the DBA 5000 Series XS Cross Drilled and Slotted Rotor; Front includes thermographic heat paint markings that change color at specific temperature thresholds. These indicators provide visual feedback on rotor fatigue and braking conditions, allowing drivers to assess heat exposure and make informed maintenance decisions.
Installation. Putting this DBA 5000 Series XS Cross Drilled and Slotted Rotor; Front on your Corvette C6 427, Grand Sport, Z06 takes 2 hours to install.
Warranty. There is a 12-month/20,000km/12-000-mile warranty on this product.
Application. The DBA 5000 Series XS Cross Drilled and Slotted Rotor; Front fits 2006-2013 Corvette C6 427, Grand Sport, Z06 models without Z07 Brake Package.
