Details on the DFC Brake Rotor - Drilled and Slotted - Silver Line

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 reduce heat buildup. The silver zinc coating on the rotor hat provides additional protection against rust, making it suitable for vehicles exposed to varying weather conditions. This product line is designed to meet the demands of drivers who require consistent braking performance and durability.

Technical Specifications and Features

This disc brake rotor features a vented design that promotes airflow to dissipate heat during braking, reducing the risk of brake fade. The drilled and slotted surface helps evacuate gases and debris from the brake pad interface, improving contact and stopping power. With a nominal thickness of 32 mm and a discard thickness of 30.5 mm, the rotor maintains structural integrity throughout its service life. The zinc silver hat finish and rust-resistant coating protect against corrosion, extending the rotor's usability.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

• Ford Explorer
• Ford Flex
• Lincoln MKS
• Lincoln MKT
• Ford Taurus

This rotor is designed specifically for these Ford and Lincoln models, ensuring proper fitment and performance. It addresses common braking issues such as uneven rotor wear, brake fade under heavy use, and corrosion-related rotor degradation.

Common Issues Addressed by This Rotor

• Brake fade caused by excessive heat buildup
• Uneven rotor wear leading to vibration or noise
• Corrosion and rust on rotor surfaces
• Reduced braking efficiency due to gas and debris accumulation
• Warping from thermal stress

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor surface and hub are clean and free of debris before installation. Verify the rotor thickness is above the discard thickness of 30.5 mm before mounting. Use the correct torque specifications for the 5 lug bolts with a 114.3 mm bolt circle diameter. The directional drilled and slotted surface must be installed following the rotation direction indicated on the rotor for optimal performance.
