Detailed Product Description

This DFC Brake Rotor - Drilled and Slotted - Silver from Dynamite Friction is designed to meet the specific braking needs of mid-2000s compact and midsize vehicles including Chevrolet Cobalt, Pontiac G5, Saturn Ion, and Pursuit. The rotor features a vented design that helps dissipate heat more effectively during braking, reducing the risk of brake fade under demanding conditions. The drilled and slotted surface improves water and gas evacuation, maintaining consistent pad contact and braking efficiency.

Constructed with a plain disc finish and a zinc silver hat finish, this rotor offers corrosion resistance to extend service life. The rust-resistant coating further protects the rotor from environmental damage. With a bolt hole pattern of 4 holes at 14 mm diameter and a 100 mm bolt circle diameter, it ensures proper fitment and secure mounting. The directional surface design is intended to optimize braking performance by channeling heat and debris away from the rotor surface.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

• Chevrolet Cobalt brake rotor replacement
• Pontiac G5 disc brake rotor upgrade
• Saturn Ion vented brake rotor installation
• Saturn Pursuit drilled and slotted rotor fitment
• Addressing brake fade and rotor wear issues on compatible models

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor thickness is above the discard thickness of 22 mm before installation. Properly clean the hub surface and mounting points to avoid uneven rotor seating. Torque lug nuts to manufacturer specifications using the 4-bolt pattern with 14 mm diameter holes. Verify directional rotor orientation during installation to maintain optimal braking performance.
