From its inception in 1977, Wilwood Engineering has been at the
forefront of high performance disc brake technology. Wilwood calipers
are found in virtually every professional and motorsports arena, and
often found in the winner's circle.
Wilwood incorporates a variety of innovative and time proven
performance enhancements in its caliper designs. They include radial
mounting, differential piston bores, high temperature seals, SRS Squeal
Reduction and bridge reinforcement plates, internal heat shields, quick
access pad retention, shock dampened fluid tubes, and center bridge
bolts (features vary by model).
The Superlite series of Wilwood calipers integrates "Big Brake" style
and Wilwood's latest technology. Each caliper is precision CNC machined
from high strength billet or forged aluminum. The key to the superior
performance of the Superlite caliper comes from the extremely durable,
efficient and lightweight body design. At about 4lbs 10oz., it is the
product of computer generated solid modeling and FEA stress analysis
technology. Full length stiffening ribs and a reinforced radial
transition from the piston bore housings to the closed end bridges have
produced the strongest Superlite caliper bodies ever built. When
compared to open bridge calipers that use tube or stand spacers between
the body halves, the closed end bridge design is measurably stronger
with less separation or deflection under load. Additional strength and
resistance to deflection comes from the four high-strength steel end
bridge bolts. A fifth center bridge bolt provides even more overall
strength and easy access to the pads without the need to remove the
caliper from the mount.
The 4-piston variant of the Superlite is legal for various SCCA and BMW
CCA classes that limit piston count.
The 6-piston variant has the same "hydraulic footprint" (meaning pedal
effort is the same), but has a unique six-piston differential bore
configuration provides balanced loading for even pad wear in sustained
high heat environments.
All variants feature pistons made from stainless steel pistons, used
for its slow heat transfer properties and high resistance to corrosion.
Cooler temperatures translate to longer service life and less chance
for heat induced pedal fade.
In addition, each Superlite is equipped with SRS bridge plates. SRS
plates eliminate all bridge wear caused by pad gouging 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. High temperature, square faced bore seals
provide the largest possible sealing area and controlled piston
retraction on release. The full range of Wilwood pad compounds is
available to match the brake response and heat range of any competition
or sports driving application.
