What is the Kangaroo Paw ventilation system?

The Kangaroo Paw is DBA's patented rotor ventilation design. It uses 144 diamond and teardrop-shaped pillars instead of traditional straight vanes. This increases the surface area and cooling efficiency, helping to dissipate heat more effectively.

What does Thermal Stability Profiling do?

Thermal Stability Profiling is a heat treatment process that DBA applies to their rotors. It helps the high carbon alloyed iron handle the increased stress and heat generated during intense braking, improving durability over time.

Does this rotor come with hardware?

This product includes the DBA 42596 front brake rotor. Installation hardware, such as mounting bolts or brake pads, is typically sold separately. Please refer to the manufacturer's installation guide for a complete list of required components.

About this part

Product Details

DBA is known for making well-built brake components that stand up to tough use. This 4000 Series HD rotor is a great example, offering improved performance for your Porsche Cayenne. It’s designed to handle the extra heat and stress that come with harder braking, whether you’re on the track or just pushing your vehicle a bit more than usual.

This rotor is cast from XG-150 high carbon alloyed iron, which is a strong material that can take a lot of abuse. It also goes through a process called Thermal Stability Profiling, helping it manage heat better over time. What really sets DBA apart is their Kangaroo Paw ventilation system. Instead of straight vanes, it uses 144 diamond and teardrop-shaped pillars. This design increases the surface area and cooling efficiency by up to 30% and 20% respectively, compared to standard straight vane rotors. This means your brakes can stay cooler and perform more consistently when you need them most.

The 4000 Series HD variant has a smooth, OE-style finish, making it a popular choice for drivers who want the performance benefits of a 4000 Series rotor but prefer a look that’s closer to the original equipment. This rotor is specifically made for the Cayenne models equipped with 360mm iron front rotors.
