What is the benefit of the Kangaroo Paw ventilation system?

The Kangaroo Paw ventilation uses a unique pattern of 144 pillars to increase surface area by up to 30% and improve cooling efficiency by 20% compared to traditional straight vane designs. This helps dissipate heat more effectively during hard braking.

What is Thermal Stability Profiling?

Thermal Stability Profiling is a heat treatment process that DBA uses on their rotors. It helps the high-carbon alloyed iron handle increased stress and heat from intense braking applications, improving durability over time.

Does this rotor come with hardware or pads?

This product is for the front slotted brake rotor only. Brake pads and any necessary installation hardware are sold separately.

About this part

Product Details

The XG-150 high carbon alloyed iron used in this DBA 4000 Series T3 rotor is a solid starting point for serious braking. This material is chosen for its ability to handle the extra heat and stress that comes with harder driving, making it a reliable choice for your 2017 Honda Civic Type R. DBA also puts this rotor through a Thermal Stability Profiling process, which helps it stand up to repeated braking cycles without issue.

What really sets these rotors apart is DBA's Kangaroo Paw ventilation system. Instead of standard straight vanes, this design uses 144 diamond and teardrop-shaped pillars. This unique pattern increases the surface area by up to 30% and improves cooling efficiency by 20% over traditional designs. Combined with the T3 bi-directional slotting, which helps clear dust and gas away from the pad surface, you get more consistent stopping power, especially when the brakes are working hard.

As a direct replacement single-piece performance brake rotor, installation is straightforward. These are designed to fit right onto your Civic Type R without modification, offering an improved braking experience over stock components.
