Product Line Details: DFC Brake Rotor - Drilled and Slotted - Silver

The DFC Brake Rotor - Drilled and Slotted - Silver line from Dynamite Friction focuses on rotors that combine drilled holes and slots to improve brake pad bite and heat dissipation. The silver zinc coating on the rotor hat provides corrosion resistance, extending rotor life in various driving conditions. This product line is designed to meet the demands of performance and daily driving applications for compatible Ford and Mercury vehicles.

Technical Specifications and Features

This disc brake rotor features a vented design that allows air to flow through the rotor, reducing heat buildup during braking. The drilled and slotted surface helps to evacuate gases, dust, and water, improving braking response and reducing brake fade. The rotor’s directional surface ensures proper orientation for optimal performance. With a nominal thickness of 21 mm and a discard thickness of 19.8 mm, this rotor maintains structural integrity and safety throughout its service life. The zinc silver hat finish offers rust resistance, protecting the rotor from corrosion and extending its durability.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

• Replacement rotor for Ford Mustang models requiring a 288 mm diameter rotor
• Suitable for Mercury Cougar vehicles with 5 lug holes and 114.3 mm bolt circle diameter
• Fits Ford Villager models needing a vented, drilled, and slotted rotor
• Ideal for addressing brake fade, rotor warping, and uneven braking issues
• Used to restore braking performance and improve heat dissipation

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor is installed with the directional surface oriented correctly according to the vehicle’s rotation. Verify bolt hole alignment with the 5-lug pattern and 114.3 mm bolt circle diameter. Check rotor thickness before installation to confirm it meets or exceeds the discard thickness of 19.8 mm. Clean the rotor surface to remove any protective coatings or debris before mounting. Proper torque specifications should be followed for the 1/2-20 bolt holes to ensure secure installation.
