• Overall diameter of 294 mm with 5 bolt holes and 12.9 mm bolt hole diameter
• Nominal thickness of 24 mm and discard thickness of 22 mm

Detailed Product Features and Specifications

This disc brake rotor features a vented design that promotes airflow between the rotor surfaces, helping to maintain optimal operating temperatures during braking. The directional drilled and slotted surface improves water and debris evacuation while enhancing pad bite and reducing brake fade. The rotor’s nominal thickness is 24 mm, with a discard thickness of 22 mm, ensuring safe replacement intervals. The rotor’s hat is finished in Geospec silver grey, providing corrosion resistance and a clean appearance. Additionally, the rotor includes a rust resistant coating to further protect against environmental damage. The bolt pattern includes 5 holes with a 12.9 mm diameter and a bolt circle diameter of 100 mm, matching the fitment requirements for the specified Saab and Subaru models.

DFC Geoperformance Rotor - Drilled and Slotted Product Line

The DFC Geoperformance Rotor - Drilled and Slotted line by Dynamite Friction focuses on delivering rotors with enhanced surface technology for improved braking performance. The drilled and slotted design is directional, optimizing heat dissipation and brake pad cleaning. This product line is tailored for drivers seeking rotors that maintain consistent braking under demanding conditions, making it suitable for the Subaru Outback and Legacy as well as the Saab 9-2X.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Reduces brake fade during extended or aggressive braking
• Improves wet weather braking by channeling water away from the rotor surface
• Minimizes brake dust buildup on pads and rotors
• Prevents rust and corrosion for longer rotor life
• Maintains consistent braking performance on vented rotors

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor is installed on compatible Saab or Subaru models listed in the fitment. Verify bolt hole alignment with the 5-lug, 100 mm bolt circle diameter pattern. Check rotor thickness before installation; replace if below the discard thickness of 22 mm. Properly torque lug nuts to manufacturer specifications to avoid rotor warping. It is recommended to inspect brake pads and hardware during rotor replacement for optimal braking system performance.

Quality Assurance

Dynamite Friction manufactures the 830-13033L rotor to meet or exceed OEM specifications for fit, form, and function. The rust resistant coating and Geospec silver grey hat finish contribute to durability and corrosion resistance. While no specific warranty information is provided, this rotor is designed for reliable performance on compatible Saab and Subaru vehicles when installed and maintained according to manufacturer guidelines.
