Aerolite 6R six piston radial mount front caliper kits add big brake stopping power and style to any 1997-2013 C5 or C6 Corvette front suspension. These kits replace the OE calipers on all models and mount in the stock caliper location. All the necessary hardware is included for correct mounting height and offset with the very affordable one-piece 13.38” Z51 style rotors. Aerolite 6R calipers incorporate race proven technology in a high strength forged triple bridge body design. They provide positive and confident pedal response that is matched to the OE master cylinder output and fully compatible with the ABS system. BP-20 dual-sport compound Smart Pads provide clean and quiet driving on the street, with improved friction and high temperature fade resistance for auto-cross and other sport driving applications.
Wilwood Engineering designs and manufactures high-performance disc brake systems. Since the company’s inception in 1977 by Bill Wood, we have developed a substantial matrix of brake components and engineering techniques that allow us to quickly and reliably create brake systems for almost any application. Our core ability is the rapid development of custom engineered brake systems using a combination of off-the-shelf and custom components. In addition to designing and manufacturing brakes for all types of competitive motor sports, Wilwood also manufactures brake systems and components for agricultural equipment, industrial applications, utility vehicles, snowmobiles, quads, motorcycles and military vehicles.
With headquarters in Camarillo, California, Wilwood employs approximately 250 people. We have on-shelf stock of more than 300 different brake calipers, 200 rotor designs, 100 master cylinder designs and a wide assortment of brackets, fittings, valves and brake lines. Our off-shelf brake calipers range in size from tiny calipers used on go-carts and light duty industrial equipment, to heavy duty original equipment brakes for the U.S. military Humvee.
Wilwood's engineering department uses the latest computer-aided design and manufacturing techniques in conjunction with finite element analysis, dynamic test and cycle test equipment, to find high-performance and reliability solutions for the most difficult braking tasks. Our extensive inventory of proprietary on-the-shelf components allow us to provide cost-effective solutions for unique brake applications.
Wilwood is ISO 9000 compliant and has extensive experience maintaining quality levels of 100ppm or less for original equipment manufacturers.
