DBA Series XS Cross-Drilled Slotted Brake Rotor

The DBA Series XS cross-drilled and slotted brake rotor (also called a drilled and slotted disc brake rotor) is a premium upgrade over a standard replacement rotor. Its non-directional cross-drilled and slotted surface gives brake pad friction dust and gases more places to escape. That helps deliver a more responsive pedal feel and better braking performance.

Key Features:

• Cross-drilled and slotted design: Slots and chamfered drill holes let friction dust and gases escape, which helps keep the pedal quiet and responsive.
• Symmetrical, non-directional pattern: The same rotor design works on either side of the vehicle.
• Kangaroo Paw vane design: DBA's patented ventilation helps the rotor shed heat and extend brake life.
• Split-core casting: Improves heat transfer and thermal efficiency.
• Heat-treated iron: Heat treatment cycles improve rotor stability and durability.
• CBN machine-turned finish: Cubic Boron Nitride polishing helps reduce disc thickness variation, pad knock and early wear.
• Protective coating: Coated non-friction areas resist rust and reduce the need for pre-installation cleaning.

DBA is an Australian brake specialist known for its OE-quality replacement and performance rotors. The XS pattern suits drivers who want a direct-replacement rotor with a performance look and improved braking feel. Hub finishes vary by model in the line. Drilled rotor configurations are not recommended for heavy off-road or track day use.
