Description
The DBA 5000 Series Drilled Front Brake Rotor provides a replacement braking surface for 2004-2008 Mazda RX-8.
The 5000 Series uses an iron friction ring and a separate aluminum center hat. Dividing these functions allows the wearing friction component to be serviced separately from a reusable hat, subject to condition and exact component compatibility.
The aluminum hat is part of the series’ approach to managing rotor mass and heat transfer at the hub. Replacement rings and hats must match the particular assembly; vehicle application alone does not establish interchangeability.
