AP Racing, a globally recognized brake and clutch supplier, has announced the production of its new RadiCALTM X range of forged steel calipers. The company will offer two versions: a heavy-duty caliper designed for performance pick-up trucks and SUVs with 17-inch wheels, and a super-duty caliper for heavier trucks and armored vehicles.
Key Highlights:
- RadiCALTM X caliper range offers forged steel construction, providing a robust braking solution.
- Two variants available: heavy-duty for performance vehicles and super-duty for heavier trucks.
- Initially showcased at SEMA Show 2021 and now refined through extensive research and development.
The six-piston forged steel caliper, first unveiled at the SEMA Show in 2021, is a pioneering product in the industry, offering superior braking performance for vehicles weighing up to 7.5 tonnes. With its focus on high durability and control, the heavy-duty variant is crafted for performance pick-up trucks and SUVs, enhancing braking control to improve handling and responsiveness.
