Late-model OE calipers from Brembo, Nissin, Sumitomo, Tokico, and others have come a long way, offering far more rigid, lightweight designs that have pushed braking performance to new levels. But even the best of them still rely on aluminum pistons, and aluminum is highly conductive, giving heat a direct path straight into your brake fluid.

Built for Yamaha motorcycles, BrakeTech Caliper Racing Pistons solve that problem with specially engineered, ventilated stainless steel pistons built from a proprietary material that cuts thermal conductivity by 94% compared to aluminum. Less heat reaching the fluid means more consistent braking, better pad life, and a caliper that performs the same on the last lap as it did on the first.

Features

  • Reduces thermal conductivity by 94%
  • Dramatically improves piston retraction and reduces brake drag
  • Improves pad life through reduced brake drag
  • Increases top speed
  • Improves release time for greater control exiting the apex
  • Improves overall braking consistency under severe racing conditions
  • Unique Fluid Maximizer chamber increases total fluid volume to further retard thermal build
