Description
OEM technology is getting better and better every year. At DFC, we endeavor to match the latest technologies as applied by the Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs). Each rotor is engineered to match the OE vane configuration, including the OE split-core technology to ensure proper and maximum heat dissipation. Additionally, all cores are dipped with a specifically formulated paint in order to provide a smoother finish inside the vane structure. The smooth finish will improve air flow as well as reduce the amount of machining required in order to properly balance the finished rotor during the mill-balancing process. The castings are sent to state-of-the-art machining facilities, where each rotor is machined to the tightest tolerances available in the market today, guaranteeing specifications of .010mm disc thickness variation (DTV) and .050mm maximum lateral runout, though regularly achieving .007mm DTV and .025mm maximum lateral runout. The rotors are fine-turned to a maximum of 1.6 RMS. These strict tolerances create the smoothest possible finish, which improves initial break-in due to the increased contact between the pad and the rotor. After all machining, each rotor passes a 100% electronic inspection station that measures over 20 attributes to ensure OE specifications, guaranteeing a trouble-free rotor. Coupled with application-specific DFC brake pads, these rotors provide the best possible braking right out of the box. A genuine GEOMET® Finish is applied throughout the entire part, promising superior corrosion protection. The GEOMET® coating is processed dry, shipped dry, and ready to install without any additional preparation, saving significant installation time (average brake job 1.25-2.5 hours per axle). The GEOMET® Finish is safely swept away by the friction material with no harmful effects. Product Features: Ready to Install - No additional preparation needed. Superior Corrosion Protection - Withstands 400 hours salt spray (SAE J2334, GMW 14872, Ford CEPT: 00.00-L-467, Asian CCT).
