Key Features:
The DBA 4000 Series Slotted Rotor incorporates cutting-edge design elements and high-quality materials to maximize braking efficiency and durability. Key features include:
- Patented Kangaroo Paw Ventilation: Unique vent design that increases airflow to dissipate heat rapidly, reducing the risk of brake fade during aggressive driving.
- Tri-Symmetrical Slotting: Precision-machined slots that help remove brake dust, gases, and water from the pad surface for consistent contact and improved bite.
- High Carbon Iron Construction: Utilizes premium high carbon iron for enhanced thermal conductivity and resistance to cracking and warping.
- Heat Treated for Durability: Advanced heat treatment process increases rotor strength and extends service life under demanding conditions.
- Direct Replacement Fit: Designed to match OEM specifications for bolt pattern, thickness, and diameter, ensuring hassle-free installation.
- Improved Pad Life: Slotting pattern reduces glazing and uneven pad wear, helping maintain optimal braking performance over time.
- Corrosion Resistant Coating: Protective finish helps prevent rust and corrosion, preserving rotor appearance and function.
Construction & Design:
The DBA 4000 Series rotor is crafted from high carbon iron, a material known for its superior heat absorption and dissipation properties compared to standard cast iron. This composition allows the rotor to withstand higher temperatures without warping or cracking, which is critical during repeated heavy braking. The rotor undergoes a specialized heat treatment process that enhances its structural integrity and durability.
DBA’s patented Kangaroo Paw ventilation system features a unique internal vane design that increases airflow through the rotor, effectively cooling the braking surface and reducing heat buildup. This ventilation, combined with the tri-symmetrical slotting pattern, ensures that the rotor maintains optimal operating temperatures and consistent braking performance under various driving conditions.
Installation & Fitment:
The DBA 4000 Series Slotted Rotor is engineered as a direct OEM replacement for the front brakes of the 2005–2006 Scion tC. Installation requires no modifications to your vehicle’s braking system, allowing for a straightforward bolt-on upgrade. It is compatible with factory brake pads and calipers, making it an ideal choice for those seeking enhanced performance without the need for additional component changes.
Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper torque specifications and rotor alignment, but experienced enthusiasts can perform the swap with standard automotive tools.
What's Included:
- One DBA 4000 Series Slotted Front Rotor (Part # DBA4562S)
Ideal For:
