Wilwood 160-12442 C/SiC Carbon-Ceramic Disc Brake Rotor

The Wilwood 160-12442 is a C/SiC (Carbon/Silicon Carbide) composite disc brake rotor, engineered from a proprietary ceramic matrix composite material—commonly known as Carbon-Ceramic. Designed for extreme-duty performance applications, this rotor delivers exceptional thermal performance and longevity far beyond what conventional iron or titanium rotors can offer.

Key Features:

• Proprietary C/SiC Ceramic Matrix Composite – A precision-engineered blend of carbon fiber and silicon carbide for outstanding strength-to-weight ratio
• Superior Thermal Conductivity & Heat Capacity – Outperforms conventional iron or titanium rotors of similar or even greater weight in high-heat environments
• Extreme Temperature Resistance – Formulated to withstand sustained extreme braking temperatures without performance degradation
• Maximum Resistance to Distortion, Warping & Cracking – The composite structure maintains dimensional integrity under repeated thermal cycling
• Exceptional Wear Resistance – Carbon-ceramic construction delivers significantly extended service life compared to traditional metal rotors
• Military-Grade Technology – The composite formulation is a derivative of materials and technology developed for Wilwood's extreme-duty military specification rotors

Wilwood's C/SiC rotors represent the pinnacle of brake rotor technology, translating race-proven and military-grade engineering into high-performance street and track applications. The 160-12442 is built for enthusiasts and professionals who demand the absolute best in braking performance, fade resistance, and long-term durability.
