Do I need to buy the aluminum hat separately?

This product is a replacement rotor ring only. It is designed to be used with the T6061-T6 aluminum hat from a DBA 5000 Series 2-piece brake rotor assembly. If you do not already have the hat, you will need to purchase the complete 5000 Series assembly.

What is the benefit of a 2-piece rotor with an aluminum hat?

A 2-piece design with an aluminum hat helps reduce unsprung weight compared to a traditional one-piece rotor. The aluminum hat also helps manage heat by reducing its transfer from the iron rotor ring to the wheel hub.

Is this rotor drilled or slotted?

This is the 5000 Series HD variant, which features a smooth OE-style rotor finish. It is not drilled or slotted, making it a popular choice for drivers who prefer that appearance.

Product Details

If you're hitting the track or pushing your 2016-2018 Ford Focus RS hard, keeping your brakes cool is key. This is the replacement rotor ring for DBA's 5000 Series 2-piece front brake rotor assembly. It's designed to work with the aerospace-grade aluminum hat that comes with the full 5000 Series kit, allowing you to replace just the friction surface when it wears out.

DBA builds these rings using high-carbon cast iron, which handles heat better than standard iron. The 5000 Series design uses a separate aluminum hat, which helps reduce unsprung weight and keeps heat from transferring directly to the hub. This setup is popular for performance street use, track days, and club racing because it offers better heat management and allows for easier replacement of just the rotor ring when needed. This particular ring has a smooth, OE-style finish, making it a solid choice if you prefer that look over slotted or drilled designs.
