Specifications

R680R — rear compact 6-piston forged-aluminium caliper from TAVRUS with an integrated parking brake. OVERVIEW R680R is a compact 6-piston rear caliper developed for B-, C- and D-class vehicles. The body is forged from aluminium alloy: forging delivers high rigidity, tensile strength, toughness and material density. Compared with cast aluminium calipers, body rigidity is about 50% higher; this reduces the risk of caliper failure in service. The built-in double oil seal (instead of ordinary external dust boots) makes the brake feel and reaction more precise. After anodizing and vacuum coating (CVD) the colour is locked in: the coating does not crack or peel and gives the caliper a metallic sheen and vivid colour. A drum-type parking brake is integrated into the body (an electronic parking-brake version is also available), so the rear axle needs no separate mechanism. Fitting improves the look of the wheel and lets the car handle everything from daily driving to the track. HIGHLIGHTS • One-piece forged rear 6-piston caliper of in-house design with an integrated parking brake. • Lightweight design combined with an improved linear pedal feel. • After rigorous multi-stage testing, performance is about 45% above the factory caliper. • With high-performance pads it confidently handles intense driving — from mountain roads to the race track.
