Forged S/L Caliper 1.625 /.810

The Forged S/L Caliper 1.625 /.810 from WILWOOD is a premium hydraulic brake caliper engineered for high-performance tactical and motorsport applications where precision stopping power is non-negotiable. Built to OEM specifications, this single-piston floating caliper delivers consistent, modulated braking force across demanding operational environments. Law enforcement and military personnel rely on WILWOOD components for their durability, repeatability, and fade-resistant performance under sustained heavy use.

Constructed from forged aluminum alloy, the S/L caliper features a 1.625-inch piston bore with .810-inch rotor clearance, optimizing brake pad wear distribution and heat dissipation during prolonged braking cycles. The floating design allows natural pad-to-rotor self-alignment, eliminating uneven pad wear and extending service intervals—critical advantages in field operations where maintenance downtime must be minimized. WILWOOD's forging process creates a denser, stronger material structure compared to cast alternatives, resulting in superior resistance to thermal cycling and mechanical stress. The caliper's compact footprint (6.1 x 4.9 x 11 inches) integrates seamlessly into tight suspension geometries without sacrificing stopping performance.

This caliper is ideal for vehicles requiring enhanced braking capability in tactical, law enforcement, or high-heat motorsport duty. Installation requires compatibility with standard hydraulic brake lines and mounting surfaces designed for single-piston calipers; verify rotor specifications and brake pad compounds with your platform's engineering data before procurement. At 5.35 lbs, the lightweight construction reduces unsprung mass, improving suspension response and fuel efficiency. Professional installation and system bleeding by a qualified technician ensure optimal performance and safety compliance.
