Detailed Product Description

This DFC Brake Rotor - Drilled and Slotted - Silver from Dynamite Friction is designed specifically for select Jaguar vehicles, including the Vanden Plas, XJ6, XJ12, XJR, XJRS, and XJS models. The rotor’s vented construction helps dissipate heat more effectively during braking, reducing the risk of brake fade under demanding conditions. The directional slotted and drilled surface improves water and gas evacuation, maintaining consistent pad contact and braking performance. The zinc silver hat finish combined with a rust-resistant coating protects against corrosion, extending the rotor’s service life.

The rotor measures 284 mm in outside diameter with a height of 60.5 mm, ensuring compatibility with the specified Jaguar models. The 5-bolt hole pattern with an 11.5 mm diameter and 111.1 mm bolt circle diameter matches factory specifications for secure installation. The nominal thickness of 24.2 mm and discard thickness of 22.9 mm provide clear service limits for maintenance.
