What is the benefit of a two-piece rotor with an aluminum hat?

A two-piece rotor with an aluminum hat offers reduced weight compared to a traditional single-piece iron rotor. The aluminum hat also helps with heat dissipation, which can improve braking performance and longevity, especially under heavy use.

What is the difference between cross-drilled and slotted rotors?

Cross-drilled rotors have holes that help vent gases and heat away from the brake pad surface, preventing fade. Slotted rotors have grooves that sweep away dust and debris, maintaining consistent contact between the pad and rotor for improved braking.

Does this rotor come with all the necessary hardware for installation?

This product includes the two-piece rotor assembly with the gold finished aluminum hat. It is recommended to consult the manufacturer's installation guide for a complete list of any additional hardware or components that may be required for proper installation on your specific vehicle.

About this part

Product Details

DBA is well-known for making high-performance braking components, and their 5000 Series XS rotors are a prime example of that expertise. These are two-piece rotors designed for sport applications, offering a significant upgrade over standard single-piece rotors. They feature an aluminum hat, which not only reduces weight compared to a full iron rotor but also helps with heat dissipation, keeping your brakes cooler under demanding use. This design also contributes to lower maintenance costs over time.

The XS designation means these rotors have a premium, non-directional cross-drilled and slotted design. The drilling helps to vent gases and heat away from the pad surface, while the slots help to sweep away dust and debris. Together, this combination improves braking performance, especially during repeated hard stops. The gold finish on the hat adds a touch of visual appeal and can offer some protection against corrosion. These rotors fit a range of Subaru vehicles, including models like the Legacy GT Wagon, WRX, and Forester, making them a solid choice for enthusiasts looking for improved stopping power and durability.

When installing these two-piece rotors, you'll find the aluminum hat makes them lighter and easier to handle than traditional rotors. Remember to consult the manufacturer's installation instructions for the proper procedure, as two-piece designs can have specific requirements. These rotors are a substantial upgrade for anyone looking to enhance their vehicle's braking system for spirited driving or track use.
