The Power Stop S3246 brake calipers are precision-engineered performance components designed specifically for the front braking system of select Audi models, including the 2005-2009 Audi A4 Base, Cabriolet, Quattro Avant, and Quattro Base, as well as the 2006-2011 Audi A6 Base and Quattro variants. These red calipers, supplied in pairs with brackets, offer a direct bolt-on replacement for the original equipment calipers, ensuring seamless fitment and optimal braking efficiency without modification.
Manufactured by PowerStop, a reputable brand recognized for its commitment to quality and innovation in the automotive braking industry, these performance calipers are remanufactured at the company’s Chicago, IL facility. The process involves rigorous quality control, including 100% pressure testing to confirm piston operation and eliminate the risk of leaks, thereby guaranteeing safety and reliability. Each caliper assembly incorporates new pistons, seals, slide pins (where applicable), dust boots, bleeder screws, and stainless steel brake pad abutment clips, ensuring a comprehensive refurbishment that meets or exceeds OEM standards.
One of the distinguishing features of these calipers is their high-temperature red electrostatic powder coating. This coating not only enhances the visual appeal behind stock or custom wheels but also provides superior resistance against rust and corrosion, significantly extending the service life of the calipers under demanding conditions. The use of high-temperature EPDM rubber dust boots combined with premium silicone lubricant facilitates smoother piston movement and durability, even in extreme environments.
Power Stop’s dedication to performance and reliability is evident in the design and construction of these calipers. They are engineered to deliver consistent stopping power, improved pedal feel, and enhanced heat dissipation, which are critical for maintaining safe and effective braking performance during spirited driving or daily use. The red finish adds an aesthetic upgrade that complements the sporty character of the compatible Audi models.
