Description
The DBA 4000 Series T3 Front Slotted Rotor is a high-performance brake rotor designed for the Ram 1500 5.7L V8 4WD. Built for drivers who demand improved braking performance under demanding street, towing, off-road, and performance-driving conditions, the 4000 Series combines DBA's advanced rotor construction with its patented T3 bi-directional slot design.
The T3 slot pattern is based on DBA's T2 design and incorporates additional precision CNC-machined tri-symmetrical slots. These additional exit points help evacuate brake pad friction dust and gases from the braking surface, contributing to more consistent braking performance and a smoother, more responsive pedal feel.
DBA recommends the 4000 Series T3 for high-performance and heavy off-road applications, making it particularly well suited to the demanding use cases associated with the Ram 1500.

T3 Slot Technology
DBA's T3 slot design builds upon the company's T2 slot configuration with additional CNC-machined, tri-symmetrical slots. The increased number of exit points allows brake pad friction dust and gases to escape more effectively from the rotor surface.
This design is intended to provide a quieter, smoother, and more responsive braking experience while improving consistency during repeated braking events. DBA specifically recommends T3 rotors for high-performance and heavy off-road applications, making them a strong upgrade for demanding Ram 1500 use.
