DBA DBA53849BLKS Series Black Hat Slotted Brake Rotor - 5000

The DBA DBA53849BLKS is a 5000 Series slotted brake rotor from Disc Brakes Australia (DBA), featuring the brand's signature Kangaroo Paw venting geometry for superior thermal management and fade resistance. Engineered for performance street and track use, this rotor delivers enhanced stopping power and pedal feel over standard OEM replacements.

Key Features:

• Unidirectional slotting: DBA's precision-machined slots continuously sweep debris, gas, and water from the pad surface for consistent, fade-free braking
• Black E-coat hat: The "BLKS" designation indicates a black electrophoretic-coated hat for corrosion resistance and a clean aesthetic
• Kangaroo Paw venting: DBA's patented internal vane geometry maximizes airflow through the rotor for lower operating temperatures
• Geomet® or equivalent coating: Rotor face and hat treated to resist rust and corrosion during shipping and service life
• Balanced and precision machined: Meets or exceeds OEM tolerances for runout and thickness variation, reducing brake judder and vibration
• DBA 5000 Series: Designed for enthusiast, performance street, and light track applications requiring more than a standard replacement rotor

The DBA 5000 Series slots improve initial bite and modulation while extending pad life by keeping the friction surface free of debris. The black-coated hat adds a premium appearance under open-spoke wheels. DBA rotors are manufactured in Australia to strict quality standards and are a trusted upgrade for performance-oriented drivers.
