Full Product Description (H1: Floating Brake Disk Floating 80x180x16 mm - Group Birel Art)
The floating brake disc brake holder is a high-performance mechanical binding piece of origin manufacturer (Original Freeline / Birel Art). This disk hub is machined specifically to accommodate floating rear brake discs on adult competition chassis (KZ box categories or peak monovite as the Rotax, the X30 and the OK) of the group Birel ART.
Machined in the mass from a high quality aeronautical aluminum block, this support has fixing dimensions of 80 mm and 180 mm spacing for a 16 mm body thickness. It is designed to withstand pharaonic twisting couples during repeated and brutal braking at the end of straight line. Thanks to its architecture designed for a floating mounting, it allows the steel disk to expand freely and to align in the center of the caliper, thus eliminating the risk of thermal sail, reducing the asymmetric wear of the platelets and avoiding Right straight lines.

- 3. Tip in Michel (the corner of the expert)
* "Hi the artists of the brake clip! The 16 mm thick floating disk carrier is mechanical goldfish. If it is poorly maintained or blocked, your disk will no longer float at all, it will overheat, to veil and you Go lose all your braking efficiency.
My obligatory trick of old mechanic for this support: take care about mounting your float rings (sockets).
When assembling your disc on this 80x180x16 mm flange, the rings and the shouldered screws must not block the disc 'disc against the aluminum. The disc must be able to move laterally from right to left in a very fluid way by hand.
Clean the notches in the brake cleaner perfectly to remove the rope gum residues and cooked wafer dust. Apply a micro-drop of copper grease (which resists more than 1000 ° C) on the sockets and support faces before you set your screws with strong net brake on the nets. It allows the system to float continuously without ever gripping because of the calories of braking. A well floating disk on its freeline support, it's a kart that releases horses without forcing! "*
- 4. The assembly guide & alignment: step by step
1.Demontage of the back tree:10 min.Put the kart on his carriage. For clean and secure access, remove the left rear wheel, the rear brake caliper (suspended for not tailing the hose) as well as the wheel hub. If necessary, loosen the 50 mm shaft to slide the support.
2.Assemblage of the disc on the flange:5 min.Take your bracket 80x180x16 mm new. Present the ventilated brake disc. Apply the trick to Michel: Insert your float bushings previously greased with copper grease, put your shouldered screws and tighten them firmly to the couple on the cross.
3.Plase on the tree:5 min.Slide the Support + Disc set to the back shaft of your chassis Birel Art. Do not immediately tighten the clamping screws (flanges) on the shaft so that it can be adjusted laterally.
4.Alignement surgical and blocking:5 min.Reposition the brake caliper on its turntables. Slide the bracket on the shaft until the disc is perfectly centered in the middle of the brake pads. Put the shaft key in place under the bracket, and tighten the clamping screws of the flange firmly to lock the disc holder on the axis. Rotate the shaft by hand to check the total freedom of rotation.
❓ 5. FAQ SEO (Frequently Asked Questions)
Q: Are the flotation sockets, hardware and clips included with this support ?
A: Not. This product includes the naked aluminum flange, in accordance with the freeLine spare parts catalog. Ring kits, elastic washers (pucks Belleville) and replacement shouldered screws are available separately on our online store.
Q: Can we mount this 16 mm thick support on a chassis of another brand ?
A: This support is drawn specifically to match the offset (offset) of the group's chassis brake calipers turntables Birel Art and the diameter of their original discs. Even if the central bore corresponds to the diameter of your shaft (usually 50 mm), the lateral alignment with respect to the caliper may differ on a chassis OTK or CRG for example.
Q: How do you know if my disk holder is veiled or replaced ?
A: Outside a direct shock during a hooking in the track, this aeronautical aluminum support is very robust. However, if you observe micro-cracks around the fixing holes under the effect of thermal shocks, or if the socket housings are highly ovalized because of the mechanical game, it is imperative to change the part for obvious security reasons.
