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

The DFC Brake Rotor - Drilled and Slotted - Black line from Dynamite Friction focuses on rotors that combine drilled holes and slots to improve brake pad bite and reduce heat buildup. The zinc black hat finish provides corrosion resistance, extending rotor life in demanding conditions. This product line is tailored for drivers seeking rotors that maintain performance under stress while offering a directional braking surface for optimized pad contact.

Technical Description and Specifications

This disc brake rotor features a vented design to promote airflow and reduce heat during braking, which helps prevent brake fade. The drilled and slotted surface improves water and debris evacuation, enhancing braking reliability in wet or dusty environments. With a nominal thickness of 19 mm and a discard thickness of 17.5 mm, the rotor meets OEM specifications for thickness and wear limits. The zinc black hat finish and rust-resistant coating protect against corrosion, maintaining structural integrity over time. The rotor is designed with five bolt holes spaced on a 114.3 mm bolt circle diameter, compatible with specific Ford and Lincoln models.

Compatible Vehicles and Common Applications

• Replacement rotor for Ford Explorer models requiring a 345 mm diameter vented rotor
• Suitable for Lincoln MKS and MKT with matching bolt pattern and dimensions
• Compatible with Ford Flex and Taurus models needing a directional drilled and slotted rotor
• Addresses issues such as brake fade, rotor warping, and uneven pad wear
• Improves braking performance in wet or high-heat conditions

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor is installed with the directional surface oriented correctly to maintain optimal braking performance. Verify bolt hole alignment with the vehicle’s hub using the 114.3 mm bolt circle diameter and 14.8 mm bolt hole diameter. It is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously to ensure even wear and proper bedding. Clean the rotor surface before installation to remove any protective coatings or residues.
