This special group of SL4R calipers is assembled with machined aluminum pistons and rubber dust boots. Coated aluminum is lightweight with high resistance to corrosion and fast heat dissipation qualities. The dust boots seal out all debris to keep the pistons and caliper bores running smooth in the harshest environments. High temperature square faced bore seals have the largest possible sealing area and provide controlled piston retraction on release. Three piston bore options are available to match the fluid and brake clamping bias requirements of any custom vehicle application.
In addition, each SL4R is equipped with SRS bridge plates. SRS plates eliminiate all bridge wear caused by pad gauging and extend the service life of the caliper. The spring-loaded action of the SRS plates also eliminates pad rattle and dampens the harmonic vibrations that contribute to pad squeal. Two piece bleed screws and dampened fluid tubes are recess mounted to shield them from track debris and other potential damage sources. A full range of PolyMatrix pad compounds is available to match the brake response and heat range of any competition or sports driving application.
