S120-S800

S1200/S800 — 12-piston and 8-piston calipers for the front axle of large cars (D class). OVERVIEW S1200/S800 are the calipers with the highest piston count we develop. 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, which 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. HIGHLIGHTS • The highest-piston-count calipers we develop. • More and larger pistons — a more linear, predictable pedal. • After rigorous multi-stage testing, performance is about 35% above the stock caliper. • With high-performance pads they confidently handle intense driving — from mountain roads to the track.
