What is a 2-piece brake rotor and why would I want one?

A 2-piece brake rotor has a separate friction ring and a hat, usually made of aluminum. This design allows for better heat management and reduces unsprung weight compared to a traditional one-piece rotor, which can improve handling and braking consistency.

Can I use this replacement ring with any brake hat?

This replacement ring is specifically designed to be used with DBA 5000 Series aluminum hats. It allows you to reuse your existing DBA hats if they are still in good condition, saving you money on a full assembly replacement.

What is the difference between the 5000 Series and other DBA rotors?

The 5000 Series shares the performance technology of the 4000 Series but adds the benefits of further weight reduction and improved heat management through its aerospace-grade aluminum hats. This specific variant features a smooth OE-style finish.

About this part

Product Details

DBA is known for making well-built brake components that stand up to tough use. If you're driving a 2007-2013 Ford Mustang GT with the performance brake package, this 5000 Series replacement rotor ring is designed to give you improved performance and heat management.

This is a 2-piece rotor assembly, meaning it has a high-carbon cast-iron friction ring bolted to an aerospace-grade aluminum hat. Using aluminum for the hat helps reduce the unsprung weight of your braking system, which can make a difference in how your car handles. It also helps manage heat, keeping the brake temperatures more consistent, especially during spirited driving or track use. The iron ring itself is a smooth, OE-style finish, which is a popular choice for those who want the performance benefits of the 5000 Series without the look of slots or drilled holes.

Because this is a replacement ring, you can reuse your existing DBA 5000 Series aluminum hat if it's still in good condition. This makes it a cost-effective way to refresh your braking system when the friction surface wears out.
