What is the purpose of the staggered piston design in this caliper?

The staggered piston arrangement, with a larger 1.62-inch piston and two smaller 1.12-inch pistons, is designed to distribute braking force evenly across the brake pad. This helps ensure consistent pad wear and optimal braking performance.

What brake disc thickness is this caliper designed for?

This Wilwood Aero6-R/H caliper is specifically designed to work with brake discs that are 1.25 inches thick. Using the correct disc thickness is important for proper caliper function and pad contact.

Does this caliper come with mounting hardware or brake lines?

This caliper is sold individually and typically does not include mounting brackets or brake lines. These components are usually specific to the vehicle application and must be sourced separately or custom fabricated.

Product Details

The Wilwood Aero6-R/H caliper utilizes a unique staggered piston arrangement, with a 1.62-inch piston paired with two 1.12-inch pistons. This setup is specifically designed to balance braking force and ensure even pad wear across the rotor surface, especially when paired with a 1.25-inch thick disc. The caliper body itself is forged from aluminum, offering a strong yet lightweight foundation for high-performance braking systems. This caliper is a key component for serious braking upgrades, providing the stopping power and control needed for demanding driving conditions.

Finished with a Type III anodizing process, this caliper offers improved resistance to corrosion and wear, helping it stand up to the rigors of repeated hard braking. The Aero6-R/H is engineered to work with Wilwood's larger rotor applications, making it a popular choice for those looking to significantly upgrade their vehicle's braking performance. Installation typically involves adapting mounting brackets to your specific vehicle's knuckle, and it's designed to accommodate brake lines with standard fittings.

When building a custom brake system, selecting the right caliper is crucial. The Aero6-R/H is a well-built option that offers substantial stopping power and durability. It's important to ensure compatibility with your chosen rotor size and brake line configuration before installation. This caliper is sold individually, so you'll need to purchase two for the front axle of your vehicle.
