DFC Geoperformance Rotor - Drilled and Slotted Product Line

The DFC Geoperformance Rotor - Drilled and Slotted line by Dynamite Friction focuses on rotors that combine drilled holes and precision slots to improve brake pad bite and heat dissipation. This design helps maintain consistent braking performance under demanding conditions, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications found in trucks and SUVs. The vented rotor construction further aids in reducing brake fade by allowing better airflow through the rotor.

Detailed Product Description

This disc brake rotor features a nominal thickness of 30 mm and a discard thickness of 28 mm, ensuring a solid lifespan before replacement is necessary. The rotor’s 330 mm outside diameter and 55 mm overall height are engineered to match the braking system specifications of compatible GM vehicles. The vented design allows air to circulate between the rotor faces, reducing heat buildup during braking. The drilled and slotted surface improves water and debris evacuation, enhancing braking performance in wet or harsh conditions. The directional surface pattern optimizes pad contact and braking efficiency. Additionally, the rotor is coated with a rust-resistant finish and features a Geospec silver grey hat finish to protect against corrosion and wear.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

• Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, and XTS
• Chevrolet Avalanche, Silverado 1500 (including Classic and LD), Suburban 1500, Tahoe, and Express 1500
• GMC Sierra 1500 (including Classic and Limited), Yukon, Yukon XL, and Yukon XL 1500
• Designed for use in heavy-duty braking scenarios requiring improved heat dissipation and consistent pad engagement
• Ideal for addressing brake fade, rotor warping, and reduced braking efficiency

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor is installed on vehicles with a 6-lug bolt pattern and a 140.5 mm bolt circle diameter. Verify the bolt hole diameter of 16 mm matches your vehicle’s hub specifications. Proper torque specifications should be followed to avoid rotor distortion. The directional drilled and slotted surface must be installed with the correct rotation direction for optimal performance. Inspect brake pads and calipers during installation to ensure compatibility and even wear.
