Wilwood® 140-10158 - Combination Parking Slotted Rotor Rear Brake Kit with Parking Brake Assembly

Benefits:

• Slots create an escape route for debris, dust, gases, and water
• Slots clean and de-glaze pad surface for optimum pad coefficient of friction
• Slots help to increase pad bite and improve air circulation
• Slots reduce stopping distances in wet weather
• 2-Piece rotors offer great weight savings and provide rapid heat dissipation compared to 1-piece rotors
• Vented type of rotors offer much faster heat dissipation
• Multi-piston calipers provide clamping force on both sides of the rotor at the same time and uniformly transfer braking force to the brake pads
• Caliper pistons are hollow to save weight
• Aluminum caliper body allows for exceptional light weight (up to 40% of weight savings) and ensures superior corrosion resistance
• Caliper heat-resistant coating prevent cracking and fading
• Floating calipers are smaller and lighter than fixed calipers

With this Parking Slotted Brake Kit you get improved stopping power and safety rolled into one. It includes CPB hydra-mechanical calipers, premium brake pads, and slotted rotors for well-balanced braking. Slotted rotors wipe away debris from between the pad and rotor as well as increase the friction between the rotor and pads. This kit makes a great solution for those who demand more from their parking brake system, from an ordinary driver to a dedicated performance fanatic. Wilwood understands that having the brake system that ensures confidence behind the wheel is of principal importance, that's why the company offers the Parking Slotted Brake Kit to optimize your brake performance.

Floating calipers by Wilwood aren't solidly mounted so they can slide left and right via pins and bushings on the bracket. When the brakes are applied, the piston pushes the entire caliper, creating friction from the brake pads on both sides of the rotor. The floating calipers are suitable for most vehicles since they are lighter, cheaper, and more compact than a fixed caliper. The internal vane design of these vented rotors by Wilwood provides excellent heat dissipation during brake cycles. As the wheel spins, the vanes around the edge of the rotor draw air in and pull it through to help cool the rotor. With the extra heat dissipated there will be less brake fade. Slotted rotors by Wilwood are a great alternative to drilled rotors. They serve the same purpose of breaking down hot brake gas but provide better resistance to cracking. The slotted pattern allows for increased pad bite and improved air circulation. The slots help to sweep away water and dust. If you drive hard, race or use your vehicle off-road or for towing purposes, slotted rotors are a perfect choice for you.
