Keep Your Calipers Sealed Tight With Genuine Wilwood Rings
Worn piston seals lead to fluid leaks and sluggish piston travel that rob your brakes of consistent bite. This Wilwood O-ring kit supplies the square-ring seals needed to service calipers built around 1.62in and 1.12in diameter pistons, restoring a tight seal so your calipers move freely and hold fluid pressure the way they should.
