• Compatible with Mini Cooper, Cooper Clubman, and Cooper Countryman
• Directional drilled and slotted surface for improved heat dissipation
• Vented rotor design with 307 mm outside diameter
• Rust-resistant Geospec silver grey hat finish
• Nominal thickness of 24 mm with discard thickness at 22.4 mm
• 5 bolt holes with 16.7 mm diameter and 112 mm bolt circle diameter
• Center hole diameter of 67 mm for precise fitment

Detailed Product Features and Specifications

This disc brake rotor features a vented design that helps reduce heat buildup during braking, which is critical for maintaining consistent stopping power and rotor longevity. The surface is both drilled and slotted in a directional pattern, allowing for efficient gas and debris evacuation while improving pad bite and wet weather performance. The rotor's overall height is 45.2 mm, and it has a plain disc finish paired with a Geospec silver grey hat finish that includes a rust-resistant coating to protect against corrosion over time.

The rotor's bolt pattern includes five bolt holes with a diameter of 16.7 mm and a bolt circle diameter of 112 mm, matching the stud/lug hole configuration for secure mounting. The nominal thickness of 24 mm ensures structural integrity, while the discard thickness of 22.4 mm indicates when the rotor should be replaced to maintain safe braking performance.

DFC Geoperformance Rotor - Drilled and Slotted Product Line

The DFC Geoperformance Rotor - Drilled and Slotted line by Dynamite Friction is designed to provide enhanced braking efficiency through advanced rotor surface engineering. The combination of drilled holes and slots in a directional pattern improves heat dissipation and pad cleaning, which is especially beneficial for vehicles like the Mini Cooper series that demand reliable braking under varied driving conditions. This product line focuses on balancing performance with durability, making it suitable for both daily driving and spirited use.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Improves braking response and reduces brake fade in Mini Cooper, Cooper Clubman, and Cooper Countryman vehicles
