Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BD80025 brake drum is designed specifically for Dodge B250, B350, B2500, and B3500 trucks, ensuring precise fitment and optimal braking performance. Made from cast iron, the drum provides the necessary strength and heat resistance required for heavy-duty braking systems. The inclusion of outer cooling fins helps dissipate heat generated during braking, reducing the risk of brake fade and extending the life of the drum. With eight bolt holes and a bolt circle diameter of 6.5 inches, this brake drum matches factory specifications for secure installation. The brake surface width of 3.5 inches offers ample contact area for brake shoes, contributing to consistent stopping power. This part does not include an ABS tone ring and does not have a rust-resistant coating, so proper maintenance is recommended to prevent corrosion over time.
