Description
Alcon was founded precisely because brakes are not just brakes. As well as being the primary active safety system on any car, the best brakes inspire confidence, augment the joy of driving and reduce lap times far more effectively and affordably than by adding power. And the best brakes are what we make, alongside clutch and pedal box systems for some of the most demanding and discerning clients on earth.
Calipers
Alcon Car89 calipers are gravity die cast for monobloc constructions using aluminium alloy for optimum strength and weight.
- Billet aerospace grade aluminium alloy provides high strength and light weight
- Differential piston diameters that minimise pad taper wear
- Stainless steel pistons as standard for improved resistance to thermal conductivity
- 2kg anti-knock back springs
- Hard stainless steel wear plates
- Bolted pad retainer to increase stiffness, remove retainer to change pads
- Applications: General Race use, GT, Endurance
- Not dust sealed
Alcon Discs
Alcon discs have been engineered to produce optimum bite, thermal stability, and durability in an exceptionally high strength to low weight design. This has been achieved by combining a special Alcon-developed iron alloy disc with an aerospace specification alloy bell.
Unique crescent grooves on friction faces provide the bite usually associated with drilled discs without the attendant durability problems.
Directional curved cooling vanes for optimum cooling performance.
- Disc Thickness: 32mm
- Outside Diameter: 355mm or 380mm
Brake Pads
Brake pads are not included as this allows the end user to select an appropriate compound to suit their driving application
