DBA DBA52842SLVS 5000 Series T3 Slotted 2-Piece Brake Rotor with Kangaroo Paw Vanes

The DBA DBA52842SLVS 5000 Series T3 is a premium composite 2-piece direct replacement performance brake rotor featuring DBA's patented T3 bi-directional slot design. Built upon the proven foundations of the T2 slot, the T3 design adds precisely CNC-machined tri-symmetrical slots that deliver an even quieter, more responsive, and smoother braking experience — making it DBA's recommended choice for high-performance applications.

Key Features:

• T3 Bi-Directional Slotting: Tri-symmetrical curved slots dampen vibration harmonics and reduce brake noise for a quieter pedal feel
• Increased Out-Gassing Exit Points: Additional slots allow brake pad friction dust and gases to escape more efficiently, improving consistency and effectiveness with every stop
• Kangaroo Paw Venting: Centre-split Kangaroo Paw vane castings increase heat transfer and thermal efficiency, keeping operating temperatures in check
• Aluma-Lite Silver Hat: Lightweight 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminium centre hat reduces unsprung weight for improved vehicle handling and minimises heat transfer to wheel hubs
• Anodised Aluminium Hat: Anodised finish prevents rust and enhances long-term appearance
• Thermal Stability Profiling: Heat treatment cycles realign the iron microstructure for increased rotor stability and durability under extreme conditions
• CBN Machine Finish: Cubic Boron Nitride turned finish minimises disc thickness variation and reduces the potential for pad knock and premature wear
• Replaceable Rotor Ring: 2-piece design allows reuse of the aluminium hat with replacement flat disc rings, lowering long-term ownership costs
