Akebono 10 POT x StopFlex Carbon Ceramic Disc Front Brake Kit for Porsche Cayenne 9YA / 9YB 2018+
The key advantage of Carbon Ceramic, however, is the total weight saving over conventional metal discs of approximately 50%. As well as enhancing performance and fuel economy, this huge reduction in both unsprung weight and rotating masses offers major benefits in terms of comfort and road-holding, especially on poor road surfaces.
Akebono 10-POT Caliper Features:
- Opposed-piston design: Unlike standard floating calipers that use a single piston, Akebono's fixed, opposed-piston design places five pistons on each side of the brake rotor for a total of ten. This configuration provides uniform and powerful clamping force across the entire brake pad.
- Superior braking performance: The even distribution of pressure and large brake pads, which are necessary for high-performance vehicles, result in stable and controllable braking, even at high speeds or under heavy loads. This design is an evolution of brake technologies derived from motorsports, including Formula 1.
- Lightweight and rigid construction: Drawing on racing development, the calipers feature a lightweight and rigid monobloc aluminum construction. This reduces the vehicle's unsprung weight and rotating mass, improving handling, fuel economy, and ride comfort.
- Excellent heat management: Forged aluminum and multi-piston configurations help these calipers manage the extreme heat generated during repeated, heavy braking. This prevents brake fade and ensures consistent performance under demanding conditions.
- Quiet and comfortable operation: Akebono incorporates noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) technology developed for its mass-production car parts. This allows the high-performance system to operate with the quiet comfort of premium street-oriented brakes.
- Custom integration: The calipers are often part of a complete big brake kit that includes features like carbon-ceramic discs and performance brake pads. These kits are engineered for specific high-performance vehicles to ensure proper brake balance and optimal function.
-
Visually appealing: As a highly visible component on performance vehicles, the calipers are also designed with an attractive aesthetic to complement the car's overall appearance.
The Apex of Braking Technology: TTSPORT Carbon Ceramic Rotor Kit
This is the definitive braking upgrade for enthusiasts and racers who demand the absolute pinnacle of performance. Derived from aerospace and Formula 1 technology, our carbon ceramic brake system offers a monumental leap in stopping power, thermal capacity, and weight reduction over any conventional iron rotor.
Each rotor is crafted from a long-fiber, carbon-reinforced silicon carbide matrix, making it **up to 50% lighter** than a comparable iron rotor. This massive reduction in unsprung and rotational mass provides a significant competitive advantage, sharpening turn-in, improving acceleration, and allowing your suspension to perform with maximum efficiency. The material's unparalleled thermal stability guarantees **zero brake fade**, delivering consistent, powerful, and repeatable braking performance at temperatures where steel rotors would fail.

Akebono develops and manufactures opposed piston type 10-pot brake calipers and 6-pot brake calipers for high-performance cars. These brakes have been used for high-performance cars manufactured by European manufacturers.
The opposed piston type disc brake, mostly used for high-performance cars, is a type of disc brake caliper which has pistons on both sides of the brake rotor. Superior characteristics of the opposed piston type disc brake are stable braking force and superb controllability.
StopFlex carbon-ceramic rotors are lightweight and offer exceptional high-temperature resistance, with fade-free performance up to 900°C.
Stopflex also produces specially engineered low-metallic, ceramic-infused brake pads designed to work synergistically with their carbon-ceramic rotors, preventing scoring and ensuring optimal performance and immediate cold bite.
