Premium Rear Brake Upgrade for the Ranger Raptor

The Ford Ranger Raptor is considerably more than a normal pickup.

Its combination of vehicle weight, powerful 3.0 V6 twin-turbo engine and ability to carry additional accessories means the braking system can be subjected to significant loads, particularly when the vehicle is modified or used for towing.

DBA 4000 Series rotors are designed for drivers who want braking performance above standard OE replacement levels.

They are particularly well suited to:

• Modified Ford Ranger Raptors
• Towing
• Performance road driving
• Recreational and demanding off-road use
• Overland and expedition builds
• Vehicles running larger wheels and tyres
• Vehicles carrying additional accessories or equipment
• Drivers wanting a premium brake upgrade without slotted rotors

DBA 4000 Series

The DBA 4000 Series is DBA’s premium single-piece performance brake rotor range.

Unlike a conventional replacement disc, the 4000 Series uses a high-carbon alloyed iron construction designed to cope with the additional heat and stress created during more demanding braking applications.

This makes the 4000 Series an excellent upgrade for heavier and more powerful vehicles such as the Ranger Raptor.

Thermal Stability Profiling

DBA 4000 Series rotors undergo Thermal Stability Profiling (TSP) during production.

This specialised heat-treatment process helps improve the structural stability of the rotor and its ability to cope with repeated heating and cooling cycles.

For a Ranger Raptor used for towing, carrying additional weight or demanding driving, improved thermal stability can help maintain consistent braking performance over repeated stops.

Kangaroo Paw Ventilation

The DBA43162 features DBA’s patented Kangaroo Paw ventilation system.

Rather than using traditional straight internal cooling vanes, the rotor incorporates a series of internally positioned diamond and teardrop-shaped pillars.

This design increases the internal surface area of the rotor and improves airflow through the disc, helping transfer heat away from the braking surfaces more effectively.

Better heat management is particularly useful on heavy vehicles where repeated braking can rapidly increase rotor temperatures.

Why Choose the Plain 4000 Series?

The plain-face 4000 Series is a great option for customers who want the premium construction and thermal characteristics of the DBA performance range while retaining the smooth characteristics of a conventional brake disc.

It provides a useful middle ground between the standard Street Series and the more aggressive 4000 Series T3 slotted rotor.

Street Series, 4000 Series or 4000 T3?

DBA Street Series

Best suited to:

• Everyday road driving
• Standard vehicles
• General replacement of worn OE discs
• Drivers wanting a premium OE-style replacement

DBA 4000 Series

Best suited to:

• Modified Ranger Raptors
• Towing
• Higher braking loads
• Performance road use
• Drivers wanting premium high-carbon rotors
• Vehicles where increased thermal performance is desirable
• Customers who prefer a plain brake disc

DBA 4000 Series T3

Consider stepping up to the slotted 4000 T3 for:

• Heavy towing
• Repeated demanding braking
• More extreme off-road use
• Heavily modified vehicles
• Drivers wanting increased pad response
• Customers wanting DBA’s T3 slotted braking surface

The plain DBA 4000 Series is therefore an excellent choice for Ranger Raptor owners looking for a substantial braking upgrade without moving to a slotted rotor.
