Product details
This TX1 set combines the 6617 backing plate with Wilwood's armored-vehicle and off-road friction formulation. Its nominal 0.67-inch thickness applies to the listed Aero and W-series pad arrangement, with compound selection separate from confirming the physical caliper fit. For Wilwood Engineering, component selection forms part of matching a complete brake system to its application. Founded in 1977 by Bill Wood and based in Camarillo, California, the company designs and manufactures disc brake systems and a range of calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines for motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications.

Fitment & Compatibility
Use the exact Aero 4, Aero 6, W4A or W6A caliper reference, including the appropriate version. Verify iron or steel rotor compatibility and the system's operating demands; caliper-family coverage alone does not establish a particular vehicle or axle.
Wilwood pad specifications and compatible-caliper reference
Use PMB Performance's 20-plus years of experience when the fitted brake package is uncertain. A caliper reference and comparison with the removed pad are useful alongside the vehicle's year and model.
