5000 Series rotors by DBA are engineered for the true performance enthusiast. The 5000 Series uses a two-piece design with a light weight aircraft grade aluminum center hat and steel rotor. Having an aluminum hat reduces overall weight by a significant amount. DBA 5000 Series rotors feature Thermal Stability Profiling (TSP) for improved heat handling. TSP enhances the micro-structure of the rotor material providing greater thermal stability. Increasing the thermal stability allows your DBA rotors to take more heat, making them more stable under heavy, frequent braking. DBA rotors with TSP will, ultimately, improve brake pad and rotor life.
Thermo-Graphic paint markings on the edge of DBA's 5000 Series rotor change color at specific temperature thresholds allowing you to check your braking performance quickly and easily. Green changes to white at 856F, orange will change to yellow at 1022F and the red will change to white after 1166F. Ideal braking temperatures are between 850F and 1000F (so the green will become white and the orange and red are unchanged).
T3 Slot 48 precision CNC machined slots
- Tri-Symmetrical curve slots dampens the vibration harmonics or noise - A quieter, responsive and smoother brake pedal feel
- Increased number of out-gassing exit points for brake pad friction gasses to escape through - Increases the consistency and effectiveness of every brake stop
- Universal slot design - Eliminates the need for left and right discs
Kangaroo Paw - 144 diamond and tear drop pillar ventilation system
- Increased surface area resulting in greater heat dissipation - Minimises brake fade and increases braking effectiveness
- Increased surface area resulting in greater heat dissipation - Prolongs service life for both pads and rotors. Reduces mechanical damage and associated costs
XG150 High Carbon Alloyed Iron
- An increase in thermal capacity property allows the rotor to handle constant extremes of heat over extended periods of time - Minimises warping and cracking and prolongs the service life of the rotor
- Special formulation designed to respond to DBA's TSP process - Minimises warping and cracking and prolongs the service life of the rotor
Thermographic Temperature Monitoring
- Heat paint markings change colour at specific temperature thresholds - Offers the driver a clear indication of peak braking temperatures
- When temperature thresholds are exceeded paint markings will permanently change colours - Allows the driver to monitor rotor fatigue and decide on rotor replacement and to assist resellers with warranty claims
Paint protection on non-friction areas
- Reduces corrosion - Stops any unsightly rust formation
- Enhances appearance - Adds value to the product
