Description
SET GTX4 Monoblock 4-Piston GT Caliper
GT racing standard. 1.9kg. One-piece forged. The GTX4 represents the pinnacle of SET’s engineering: a monoblock (one-piece) forged caliper with internal oil passages, hollow construction, and nickel-manganese pistons with heat-dissipation grooves. Under 1 tonne of hydraulic load, the entire caliper body deflects just 180 microns at its weakest point.
Engineering Highlights
One-piece forged construction eliminates the bolted joint that is the primary weakness of conventional two-piece calipers. Internal oil passages (rather than external hoses) reduce fluid volume and improve response. The asymmetric rear profile is optimised through finite-element analysis to direct braking forces along the caliper’s strongest axis. Anti-retraction springs at the base prevent pad drag, reducing disc wear and heat buildup.
