DBA DBA52828BLKLS 5000 Series T3 Slotted 2-Piece Brake Rotor Black Hat Left Hand

The DBA 52828BLKLS is a fully assembled 5000 Series T3 two-piece disc brake rotor featuring a black anodized Aluma-Lite center hat in a left-hand (driver's side) configuration. Engineered for performance street and motorsport use, this rotor combines a lightweight aircraft-grade aluminum center hat with a high-carbon iron rotor ring to deliver outstanding stopping power and thermal management.

Key Features:

• Two-Piece Construction: Separate rotor ring and lightweight aluminum center hat reduce unsprung rotational mass and isolate heat from the hub, helping protect wheel bearings from heat-related wear
• T3 Tri-Symmetrical Slotting: Three symmetrical slots channel friction dust and gases away from the pad surface for consistent, responsive pedal feel and reduced fade
• Aluma-Lite Black Hat: Aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminum center hat reduces overall rotor weight and allows the rotor ring to expand uniformly under high heat without distortion
• XG-150 High Carbon Alloy Iron: Premium rotor ring material engineered for optimal interaction with DBA's Thermal Stability Profiling (TSP) process
• Thermal Stability Profiling (TSP): DBA's proprietary heat treatment process relieves internal manufacturing stresses in the rotor ring, maximizing thermal stability and reducing metal fatigue under extreme braking conditions
• Kangaroo Paw Vane Design: Patented internal vane geometry provides up to 20% better heat dissipation compared to conventional straight-vane rotors, extending rotor and pad life
• Thermo-Graphic Paint Markings: Heat-sensitive paint indicators allow monitoring of rotor operating temperatures to help select the correct brake pad compound
• Fully Assembled: Ships as a complete, ready-to-install unit — no additional assembly required
• Replacement Ring Option: When the rotor ring wears out, it can be replaced independently, reducing long-term ownership cost

The DBA 5000 Series T3 rotor is rated for severe motorsport use and is equally at home on aggressive street driving applications. Sold individually — this listing is for the left-hand (driver's side) rotor only. DBA backs this rotor with a 12-month / 12,000-mile warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
