Triumph TR6 Brakes
The Triumph TR6 brakes system represents a significant advancement in British sports car technology, featuring disc brakes at all four corners for superior stopping power. At Rimmer Bros, we maintain extensive stocks of brake components for all TR6 models produced between 1969 and 1976, supporting both original specification restorations and modern performance upgrades across this iconic sports car range.
TR6 brake systems evolved throughout the model's production run, with early cars featuring Girling disc brake assemblies and later models incorporating improved caliper designs and brake pad compounds. The four-wheel disc configuration provided exceptional stopping power for spirited driving, though the system requires regular maintenance to preserve optimal performance characteristics.
Our comprehensive brake component inventory addresses every aspect of TR6 brake system maintenance and restoration. We stock original equipment manufacturer parts alongside quality aftermarket alternatives, ensuring component availability for various restoration standards and performance requirements.
Front and Rear Brake Components
Our Triumph TR6 front and rear brakes section encompasses complete disc assemblies, brake pads, calipers, and mounting hardware for both axles. Front brakes handle primary stopping duties with larger disc diameters, while rear discs provide balanced braking performance and incorporate handbrake mechanisms within the caliper assemblies.
Brake disc quality significantly impacts overall system performance and longevity. We stock both solid and vented disc options, with vented designs offering improved heat dissipation for demanding driving conditions. Brake pad compounds range from standard organic materials to performance-oriented formulations suited to track use or spirited road driving.
Performance Brake Kits and Improvements
The Triumph TR6 brake kits and improvements range offers complete solutions for enhanced braking performance. These kits include matched components selected for compatibility and improved stopping power, addressing the demands of modern traffic conditions and driving styles.
Performance brake kits typically feature upgraded pad compounds, stainless steel braided brake lines, and improved disc designs. These modifications reduce brake fade, improve pedal feel, and provide consistent performance under demanding conditions while maintaining the original system architecture.
Hydraulic Controls and Master Cylinders
The Triumph TR6 hydraulics and controls section covers master cylinders, brake servo units, and associated hydraulic components. The TR6 utilises a dual-circuit master cylinder design for enhanced safety, with separate circuits serving front and rear brake systems.
Brake servo units provide power assistance to reduce pedal effort, making the TR6 manageable in stop-and-go traffic despite its performance-oriented brake system. We stock both original specification servo units and modern replacements offering improved reliability and consistent operation.
Brake Lines and Piping Systems
Our Triumph TR6 brake pipes, servo and clutch pipes inventory includes complete brake line sets, individual pipes, and flexible hoses connecting all hydraulic components. The TR6 brake system requires precisely manufactured pipes to ensure proper routing and leak-free operation.
Stainless steel brake lines offer corrosion resistance and improved pedal feel compared to original rubber hoses. These upgrades particularly benefit cars used in demanding conditions or stored in environments where moisture accelerates deterioration of standard brake components.
Regular brake system maintenance ensures optimal performance and safety. Consider reviewing our Triumph TR6 engine components and TR6 accessories ranges for complementary components supporting overall vehicle performance and maintenance requirements.
