SX6R forged six piston calipers deliver heavy duty stopping power for the road or track. The caliper incorporates race technology into a body design with widespread adaptability. Radial mounting, multiple options for piston volume, and a rotor diameter ranging to 15.00" give this caliper the versatility necessary to suit all types of heavy weight braking requirements. The new SX6R is is largest caliper with the latest innovations incorporating an exclusive dust wiper seal that further protects the piston bore from dust and corrosion, allowing the caliper to be used in locales that mandate a method of environmental sealing.

The body of SX6R series is stress-flow forged from a premium grade aluminum alloy billet. Stress-flow forging realigns the metal's internal grain structure to flow within the contour of the caliper body. This process eliminates the stresses and interruptions to the internal grain structure that occur when machining a straight block billet. The results are a caliper with superior clamping efficiency and ultimate strength against fatigue, stresses, and distortion under load.

Big Brake Dynamic Lug Drive hats incorporate a new rotor mounting system that eliminates the rotor bolts and allows the rotors to move independently of the hats as they expand and contract through heat cycles. All thermally generated stress is removed from the rotor attachment points. The rotors stay flatter and run truer. Brake response and pedal feel remain consistent. Pad knock back and rotor drag are eliminated. The hats are no longer distorted by stresses generated by thermal expansion and shrinkage of the rotors. All problems associated with thermal distortion, including bolt hole alignment issues when trying to re-install new rotors on a previously used hat, are eliminated.

Wilwood's GT Rotor and Lug Drive Hat Assemblies are preassembled packages of our latest and greatest technology and design. The lug-drive rotor mounting system eliminates the rotor bolts and instead, a large single internal snap-ring retains the rotor in the hat. This system allows the rotors to move independently of the hats as they expand and contract through heat cycles. All thermally generated stress is removed from the rotor attachment points. The rotors stay flatter and run truer. Paired with GT 72 Curved Vane Spec-37 rotors that are manufactured from a proprietary iron alloy developed to withstand extreme temperatures with the highest possible degree of resistance against distortion, warping, cracking, and wear.

Wilwood has been expertly designing and manufacturing high-performance disc brakes in the USA since 1977. Engineered and rigorously tested for the track, Wilwood brakes provide unsurpassed quality and performance with sleek, lightweight designs.
