Stop Your High-Performance Car or Truck with an Alcon Brake Kit
Alcon Brakes got its start in the 1980s supplying brake system components for World Rally Championship, F1, and IndyCar competition. They’re still at it—you can find Alcon brake systems on top-level cars in all forms of motorsports including IMSA, Trans-Am, and NASCAR.
Alcon took that motorsports expertise and used it to create brake kits and components for high performance street, track day, and off-road vehicles. Here is what’s available at Summit Racing:
Brake Kits
Alcon Brake Kits will provide a huge improvement in stopping power. Bolt-on replacements for the factory disc brakes, the kits provide more clamping force (Alcon calls it brake torque) while reducing rotor temperatures and pedal effort.
Features include:
• Six-piston front calipers (most applications) and four-piston rear calipers
• Ductile iron caliper housings for maximum strength and stiffness
• Larger, thicker rotors offer more brake torque and thermal capacity to help reduce brake fade
• High-friction pads increase stopping power
• Increased pad area reduces temperatures and increases pad life
• High-temperature seals for longer life and better dust protection
• Caliper housings have epoxy acrylic paint over an acid-zinc finish for maximum corrosion protection
Summit Racing carries Alcon Brake Kits for popular late-model vehicles including C5-C8 Corvette; Gen 6 Camaro; BMW M-Series; Jeep JK Wrangler; Ford F-150 including Raptor; and RAM 1500 TRX pickups.
Pro-System Brake Kits
Alcon Pro-System Brake Kits are what you want for high-performance street driving and track days. They’re designed to use the factory master cylinder, booster, and ABS system, and are also fully compatible with aftermarket ABS. And unlike some other kits, the Pro-System Brake Kits have dyno-bedded rotors and pads. That means no further break-in is required other than a warmup lap if you’re at the track.
Features include:
• Rotors machined from specially formulated gray cast iron for excellent thermal stability, friction coefficient, and heat transfer characteristics
• Forged aluminum calipers with staggered piston diameters to reduce pad taper
• Brake pads can be changed without removing calipers
• Precision machined and anodized aluminum hats and brackets
• Fully floating rotor attachment with anti-rattle clips
• High performance brake pads included
Summit Racing carries Alcon Pro-System Brake Kits for C5-C8 Corvette; Gen 6 Camaro; 1999-2005 BMW M3; and Mark IV VW Golf.
Summit Racing also carries Alcon Race Series rotors, replacement brake pads, and brake fluid.
