Shimano Deore BR-M6120 4 piston caliper
The SHIMANO Deore M6120 MTB brake caliper offers the Japanese brand's manufacturing quality at an attractive price. It is suitable for leisure MTB riders and can be used on any type of outing (Trail, All Mountain, Enduro).
The BR-M6120 caliper is based on a four-piston system of two different sizes. The light and rigid construction allows the pads to be gently clamped onto the disc and a large contact surface area that reduces noise and doses power easily.

Technologies
Four Piston
The disc brake system with a caliper with two opposing pistons of different diameters is characterised by the presence of pistons of different sizes at the front and rear. The system adopts a power transfer mode whereby the disc brake rotor is pressed by the smaller piston at the inlet of the rotor housing and also by the larger, more powerful piston at the rear. This prevents the disk brake rotor from jerking and significantly reduces noise.
In addition, the 4-piston caliper provides a larger contact surface area for the disc brake rotor while maintaining compact dimensions, while the efficient pad positioning is adjusted to the extent necessary to stabilise pressure.
Ice Technologies
ICE TECHNOLOGIES piston to optimise lightness, rigidity and heat dissipation.
Oversize pistons transfer hydraulic power directly to the brake pad, and ceramic material is used to prevent heat transfer and ensure smooth performance, with efficient transfer of braking power without dispersion.
One Way Bleeding
The "ONE WAY BLEEDING" function was developed to ensure the quick and easy prevention of air leaks in Shimano hydraulic systems. The entire oil circuit in the system has been optimised to prevent air bubbles inside it.
The one-way oil circuit, together with a funnel tool with mineral oil, guarantees an easy and clean bleeding system.
