Big Just Got Bigger
-
Since its introduction, EBC Brakes Racing’s 4-piston Apollo Big Brake Kit has offered unparalleled levels of braking performance for a number of vehicle applications, combining precision British engineering with unbeatable value-for-money.
-
Creating waves in road, track day and race car markets across the world, the firm is now proud to launch a bigger, 6-piston version of this acclaimed kit, aimed at larger and higher-powered vehicle applications.
-
As well as being available as a caliper-only option, the first application to benefit from a full 6-piston Apollo Big Brake Kit covers the incredibly popular Mk7 VW Golf GTI and R variants, as well as the Mk8 VW Golf GTI – hot hatches that have been synonymous with fast road, track day and race driving.
-
Further applications will follow very soon – please keep your eyes peeled for more updates.
Apollo-Series 6-Piston Calipers
Key features:
-
EBC’s lightweight-yet-strong aluminium 6-piston brake caliper
-
Two-piece bolted design that incorporates high-tensile 12.9-grade steel bolts for reinforcement of the caliper bridge section (computer FEA analysis shows that this offers significant improvements in caliper stiffness compared to a monobloc design)
-
Machined from heat-treated low-pressure castings (this offers a noticeable performance advantage over conventional gravity cast calipers, exhibiting higher overall strength and a comparable caliper body stiffness to forging)
-
High-temperature fluid seals coupled with full boot-type dust seals give maximum protection against road grime and debris
-
Lightweight, hard-anodised aluminium staggered pistons with serrated/castellated piston noses that reduce heat transfer into the braking hydraulics
-
Every single brake caliper pressure tested to 2,500psi
-
Full stainless-steel hardware and fittings, providing durability and longevity – this caliper will never rust
-
Uses standard pad shapes, giving choice when selecting brake pads
-
Rather than a powder-coated finish, all Apollo calipers use an advanced high-temperature Teflon™ polyester coating process to ensure they look great for much longer. Currently available in Stealth Black, Storm Shadow Blue, Luminous Yellow and Racing Red
