The key to the superior performance of the SL6 comes from the extremely durable
and efficient body design. It is the product of FEA computer solid modeling
and 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 caliper bodies ever built. When
compared to open bridge calipers that use tube or stand spacers between the
body halves, the closed end briddge design is measurable 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.
A unique six-piston differential bore configuration provides balanced pad loading
for even pad wear in sustained high heat environments. The standard SL6 calipers
feature one-piece stainless steel pistons. Stainless is used for its slow heat
transfer properties and high resistance to corrosion. The SL6/ST models feature
Wilwood's exclusive Thermlock® pistons. This multi-part piston design creates
a highly efficient thermal barrier to further reduce heat transfer from the
pads to caliper body, seals, and fluid. Cooler temperatures translate to longer
service life and less chance for heat induced pedal fade.
In addition, each SL-6 is equipped with SRS bridge plates. SRS plates eliminate
all bridge wear caused by pad gauging and extend the service life of the caliper.
The spring-loading 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 PolyMatrix pad compounds is available to match the
brake response and heat range of any competition or sports driving application.
