The DP6 marks a noteworthy step in the evolution of the
DynaPro caliper series. DP6 calipers offer the performance
advantages of a larger pad and a six piston differential bore
configuration, with complete bolt-on interchange ability to
the four piston 5.25" lug mount DynaPro models, and the
long standing Dynalite caliper series.
As with the previous DynaPro models, the strength of the
DP6 is a combination of process and design. Premium
grade alloy billets are stress-flow forged resulting in a highly
efficient, high strength body. Stress flow forging re-aligns the internal grain
structure of the metal within the contour of the caliper body. This process is proven
to provide superior strength over any other process derived from castings or straight billet
block machining. FEA assisted solid modeling design technology was employed to find the optimum
balance between lightweight with superior strength against deflection and body separation under high load.
In addition to the sturdy, yet stylish body, the DP6 incorporates race proven technology and the latest Wilwood performance
enhancements. Pad clamping force is generated by six heavy wall stainless pistons configured in a leading to trailing edge
differential bore pattern. The heavy wall pistons have been re-engineered to fully resist backside deflection at high pressures
while maintaining balanced pad loading for even wear over the length of the pad. Stainless steel resists corrosion while inhibiting
direct heat transfer from the pads to caliper body, seals, and fluid. Two choices for overall piston volume provide options to match
caliper size with master cylinder output and bias requirements.
The DP6 uses the upgraded type 6712 pad that provide the larger overall volume size from the previous Dynalite and DynaPro
four-piston models. The pads are retaining with exclusive Wilwood Quick-E clips for simplified pad service and maintenance
without caliper removal. Stainless steel SRS bridge plates are used to dampen engagement harmonics, eliminate pad rattle, and
protect the caliper bridges from gouging by the pad edges. Four corner bleeds and internal fluid passages accommodate front
or rear mounting and simplified gas evacuation regardless of mounting position.
Standard DP6 calipers feature a high gloss black finish. Bright polished, high gloss red, and other custom Wilwood colors can
be ordered to add personalized style for custom applications.
