Caliper Technology
The System ...
The caliper, disc and pads work as a system: dynamically affecting bite, torque, release, and in the end, lap times. Performance Friction's improvement in pad and disc technology transferred to improvements in caliper design, resulting in exceptional speed and reliability. Since it was introduced in 2003, professional race teams have seen tremendous success running the Performance Friction package of caliper, disc and pads.
| The Secret is ... no single attribute makes us the best - every attribute of every key component is engineered to work together as a system to give drivers |
| Longer Life, Unrivaled Reliability, Superior Control, Lowest Lap Times |
Monobloc FEA Design reduces caliper deflection for less pedal travel and improved response
Short Aspect Ratio 4-Piston Design for a stiffer caliper body, which reduces drag and temperature as well as improving release and control over 6-piston designs
High Temperature Aluminium Alloy for stiffness and improved pedal feel at the highest temperatures
Electroless Nickel Coating for durability
Abutment Design for optimized torque takeout, which improves release and control
Patented Piston Cap Design reduces fluid temperature by 55°C (100°F)
High Tension Seals for proper piston rollback, which reduces drag and improves consistency
Bleeder Design protects against thread and seat damage
Integrated Bleeder and Bridge Pipe Guards |
