5000 series - T3 2 PIECE DISK SET
DBA 5000 T3 slot design ‘sports’ the same benefits as the 4000 SERIES except for one major structural advancement. The 5000 SERIES brake rotors incorporate Alumalite hats made from 6061-T6 Aeronautical grade aluminium. The Alumalite hat reduces unsprung weight for improved suspension and handling performance as well as allowing uniform expansion of the disc rotor during high performance use. The Alumalite’s ability to reduce the level of heat transfer adds to the longevity of both the disc rotor and other vehicle components such as brake pads and wheel hub bearings.
The tri-symmetrical slots also increase the number of out-gassing exit points for brake pad friction gases to escape through, further increasing the consistency and effectiveness of every brake stop.
| Feature Description | Advantage | Benefit |
|
"T3 Slot 48 precision CNC machined slots" |
Tri-Symmetrical curve slots dampens the vibration harmonics or noise Increased number of out-gassing exit points for brake pad friction gasses to escape through Universal slot design |
A quieter, responsive and smoother brake pedal feel Increases the consistency and effectiveness of every brake stop 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 Increased surface area resulting in greater heat dissipation |
Minimises brake fade and increases braking effectiveness 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 |
|
Thermal Stability Profiling |
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 When temperature thresholds are exceeded paint markings will permanently change colours |
Offers the driver a clear indication of peak braking temperatures 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 Enhances appearance |
Stops any unsightly rust formation Adds value to the product |
