DBA 08-12 Audi RS4 (w/ Brembo Hats) T3 5000 Series Replacement Slotted Rotor - 52838.1S

5000 Series T 3 is the ultimate in direct replacement 2 piece performance brake rotors Featuring all the benefits of the 5000 Series along with DBA's patented world renowned T 3 bi directional slot design.

Built on the foundations of DBA's T 2 slot, the T 3 slot design features additional precise CNC machined tri symmetrical slots, resulting in an even quieter, more responsive and smoother braking experience. The T3 slot increases the number of exit points for brake pad friction dust and gases to escape through, further increasing the consistency and effectiveness of every brake stop.

DBA recommends a T3 slot for high performance applications.

Product Features:

• Two-Piece Design: Hat and rings sold as complete assemblies and as individual components, for more economical replacement options.
• Surface Design: Symmetrical slots and/or chamfered drill holes facilitate the exit of friction dust and gasses, for a quieter and more responsive pedal feel.
• DBA Aluma-Lite: Aluma-lite centre hat / bell made from extra lightweight 6061 T6 aircraft aluminium, reducing the unsprung weight for better vehicle handling and minimising heat transfer to the wheel hubs.
• Anti Rust: Painted non-friction areas to prevent rust and enhance appearance, or full En-shield coating to protect the rotor and alleviate the need for pre-installation cleaning.
• Bi-Directional Use: Symmetrical slotting and/or drilling for universal left/right use.
• Thermal Stability Profiling: Heat treatment cycles realign the microstructure of the iron, resulting in increased rotor stability and durability.
• Thermal Efficiency: Centre-split core castings for increased heat transfer and thermal efficiency.
• Thermographic Heat Paint: Paint markings change colour at specific temperature thresholds to assist with the monitoring of braking temperatures and rotor fatigue.
• CBN: CBN (Cubic Boron Nitride) machine turned finish, minimising disc thickness variation and the potential for pad "knock" and resulting premature wear.
• High Carbon Alloyed Iron: Formulation allows for optimal interaction with DBA's thermal stability profiling (TSP). Increases the capacity of the rotor to handle constant and extreme heat over prolonged periods.
• Kangaroo Paw: Unique Kangaroo Paw vane design for up to 20% better heat dissipation, increasing braking effectiveness and prolonging brake life.
• NAS Bolts & Nuts: Unique Kangaroo Paw vein design for up to 20% better heat dissipation, increasing braking effectiveness and prolonging brake life.
