Wilwood Caliper-Forged Superlite 6R-R/H 1.62/1.12/1.12in Pistons 0.81in Disc

The Superlite 6R caliper series is the benchmark in asphalt short track, late model, modified and open wheel competition. It also enjoys prominence in a variety of road-race, rally and sport driving applications. The new FSL6R model series is the latest innovation to this Superlite family of calipers. It has been redesigned with internal fluid ports that eliminate the external fluid cross-over tubes. The transfer tube has been replaced with two additional bleed screw assemblies which allow differential bore models to have a left hand and right hand orientation, but no leading or trailing configuration is required.

Note for Pistons, Rings, Rotors, Rods and engine internals

Unless otherwise specified, some brands supply brake rotors, pistons, strut mounts, rods and rings separately. In some cases, titles may indicate plural, or 'set' - eg the term “ring set” often refers to the rings for a single piston only.

Brake Caliper, Billet Superlite 6, Passenger Side, 6-piston, Aluminum, Gray Anodized, Wilwood Logo, Each

These billet SL6 series calipers integrate "Big Brake" style and Wilwood's latest technology. Each caliper is precision CNC-machined from high-strength billet into three specialized configurations that cover a broad range of competition and sports driving applications. The key to their superior performance is their extremely durable and efficient body design. It is the product of FEA computer solid modeling and stress analysis technology. Full-length stiffening ribs and a reinforced radial transition from the piston bore housings to the closed-end bridges have produced the strongest caliper bodies ever built, according to Wilwood. When compared to open-bridge calipers that use tube or stand spacers between the body halves, the SL6 calipers' closed-end bridge design is measurably stronger, with less separation or deflection under load. Additional strength and deflection resistance come from the four high-strength steel end bridge bolts. A fifth center bridge bolt provides even more overall strength and easy access to the pads, without the need to remove the caliper from the mount. A unique 6-piston differential bore configuration provides balanced pad loading for even pad wear in sustained high-heat environments. The standard SL6 calipers feature one-piece stainless steel pistons. Stainless is used for its slow heat transfer properties and high resistance to corrosion.
