Product Details

When you're pushing your heavy-duty truck, SUV, or armored vehicle past its limits, especially those over 14,000 lbs GVWR, you need braking power that can keep up. The Wilwood TX6R caliper is built for those severe-duty situations where standard brakes just won't cut it. This caliper is designed to handle the extreme demands of tactical vehicles and serious off-road use, ensuring you have reliable stopping power when you need it most.

This caliper features a robust forged aluminum body, which keeps the weight down while maintaining exceptional strength. Inside, you'll find stainless steel pistons, known for their durability and resistance to heat. The TX6R caliper also boasts a large pad volume, meaning more friction material is available for longer braking events, and it can accommodate brake rotors up to 1.50 inches thick. This combination makes it a leading choice for high-strength, lightweight braking capacity suitable for both highway and extreme off-road applications. This particular caliper is finished in a striking red powder coat for added durability and a custom look.

This is the left-hand caliper, and it uses a combination of piston sizes (1.75-inch, 1.62-inch, and 1.62-inch) to provide balanced braking force. It's designed to work with rotors that are 1.38 inches thick. When installing, always refer to the manufacturer's instructions for proper procedure and any specific hardware or fluid recommendations.
