Precision and Power: The Shimano XT 4-Pot Hydraulic Disc Brake Calliper

Experience cutting-edge braking technology with the Shimano XT 4-Pot Hydraulic Disc Brake Calliper. This lightweight, powerful, and easily adaptable brake calliper is engineered to deliver superior stopping power and precise control, giving you the confidence to tackle the most demanding Enduro, Trail, and Downhill terrain.

Featuring a forged two-piece design, the XT 4-pot calliper is a masterpiece of strength-to-weight optimisation. Its dual-diameter piston system is a testament to Shimano’s relentless pursuit of braking excellence, providing a powerful yet nuanced braking experience that instils total control.

The Shimano XT 4-Pot Hydraulic Disc Brake Calliper is the ideal choice for any rider seeking to upgrade their mountain bike with braking technology that is powerful, reliable, and provides an unmatched level of control.

THE DETAIL

Optimised 4-Piston Design: The dual-diameter, opposed 4-piston design is the heart of this calliper's performance. It significantly reduces the leading effect of the brake pad and ensures optimal wear, resulting in a consistent feel and unparalleled braking control across all speeds and conditions.

Lightweight & Rigid Construction: The calliper's forged two-piece body is designed to be both lightweight and exceptionally rigid. This construction maximises power transfer from the lever to the rotor while reducing flex, providing a firm and responsive lever feel.

Superior Heat Management: For sustained downhill performance, the calliper is recommended for use with Ice-Tech Centre-Lock rotors (available in 160mm, 180mm, and 203mm). When paired with Ice-Tech pads (available in resin or sintered), the optional aluminium radiation fins can further improve heat dissipation, reducing brake surface temperatures by up to 50°C for fade-free performance.

Simplified Maintenance: The calliper features a clean and efficient one-way oil bleeding system, making maintenance and brake servicing a straightforward process. It is optimised for use with Low Viscosity Oil, which maintains a stable viscosity over a wide temperature range, ensuring a consistent lever feel and predictable braking force.

Versatile Mounting: With its adaptable post-style mount and shim-less mounting system, the calliper can be easily customised to suit your specific bike's frame and rotor size requirements using a choice of adapters. The calliper comes supplied with P03A-RF resin pads with fins, offering an outstanding balance of power and heat dissipation straight out of the box.
