What is the benefit of the drilled and slotted pattern on these rotors?

The drilled holes and slots help to vent brake pad friction dust and hot gases away from the rotor surface. This improves braking performance by helping to prevent brake fade and maintain a consistent grip.

What is the Kangaroo Paw ventilation system?

The Kangaroo Paw is a unique ventilation design developed by DBA that uses a series of pillars between the rotor discs. This increases the surface area for airflow, which helps to cool the rotor more effectively and reduce the risk of overheating.

Does this rotor come with any hardware for installation?

This product includes the rear brake rotor. Installation hardware, such as lug nuts or brake pads, is typically sold separately. Refer to the manufacturer's installation guide for a complete list of recommended parts.

About this part

Product Details

DBA's 4000 Series XS Gold rotors start with a high-carbon, heat-treated iron casting, a solid foundation for stopping power. This material choice helps resist warping under heat, which is crucial for consistent braking performance. The unique drill and slot pattern on these rear rotors isn't just for looks; it's designed to help vent brake pad dust and hot gases away from the braking surface. This means you get a more reliable and consistent bite, especially during repeated stops.

These rotors feature DBA's patented Kangaroo Paw ventilation system, which uses a series of pillars to increase surface area and improve airflow. This advanced cooling helps keep the rotor temperatures down, further reducing the risk of fade. The gold finish on the rotor hub adds a touch of visual appeal while also offering some protection against corrosion. As a direct replacement, these rotors are made to fit your vehicle's existing setup without modification, making installation straightforward.

This particular rotor is designed for a wide range of popular GM trucks and SUVs from the early to mid-2000s, including models like the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 and GMC Savana 2500. If you're looking to upgrade your braking performance with a well-built rotor that handles heat and dust effectively, this DBA 4000 Series XS Gold rotor is a solid option.
