Fixed calipers by Wilwood offer unmatched stopping power. The pistons in
fixed calipers are located on both sides of the disc, allowing for
evenly distributed clamping force. They apply more squeezing power and
apply it more evenly during braking as force is directly applied to both
sides. Multi-piston calipers allow for more even braking and, as a
result, less pad distortion. The more number of pistons a caliper has,
the more clamping force it provides. Thanks to the evenly distributed
pressure, these calipers ensure an even wear pattern along the entire
length of the brake pad. Usually these calipers have smaller diameter
pistons than single-piston calipers.
The
internal vane design of these vented rotors by Wilwood provides
excellent heat dissipation during brake cycles. As the wheel spins, the
vanes around the edge of the rotor draw air in and pull it through to
help cool the rotor. With the extra heat dissipated there will be less
brake fade. This rotor design by Wilwood combines the best features of a
slotted rotor and cross-drilled rotor allowing your brakes to run
cooler and sweep away water and dust. The cross-drilled and slotted
rotors improve air circulation and increase brake pad bite, ensuring
incredible stopping performance.
Slots provide gas and water dissipation
Slots help to increase pad bite and improve air circulation
Drilled Holes and Slots create an escape route for debris, dust, gases, and water
Slots clean and de-glaze pad surface for optimum pad coefficient of friction
Drilled rotors improve the appearance of your wheels and provide reduced rotor weight
2-Piece rotors offer great weight savings and provide rapid heat dissipation compared to 1-piece rotors
Vented type of rotors offer much faster heat dissipation
