Overview
The Baer Brakes 4261636R-2 is a front 6T brake system for the 2010–2026 Ford F-150, covering 2WD and 4WD trucks, including Raptor models. Its red six-piston direct mount caliper clamps a vented, slotted and zinc-plated 1-piece rotor, forming a complete front brake package.
The package uses the D1247 pad type, T-compliant dust and weather seals and a stainless braided hose set. The rotors feature a curved vane design aimed at cooling, consistent braking and reduced brake fade. All mounting brackets and hardware are included with the kit.
Key features
- Direct mount, fixed six-piston 6T caliper in red
- Staggered pistons designed to reduce uneven pad wear
- Stainless steel pistons, abutments and noise suppression clips
- Curved vane rotor design intended for cooling and consistent braking
- Dual seals resisting dust, weather and pressure
- Powder-coated, CNC machined aluminum caliper made from US sourced forged or billet aluminum
- Steel braided DOT approved hoses included
Caring for a painted caliper
A powder-coated caliper stays attractive with routine cleaning. Use a mild, pH-neutral wheel cleaner and a soft brush, and avoid abrasive pads or strong solvents that can dull the finish. Chips in the coating expose the aluminum body, so touch-up with a suitable high-temperature paint helps limit corrosion, especially near road salt.
A direct mount caliper must sit square to the rotor. Check the bracket bolts and alignment after installation, and recheck them after the first few hard stops. Pair the front kit with rear brakes of similar wear so the truck stops evenly under load.
- Inspect the braided hoses for abrasion near the frame
- Keep pads matched left and right
- Clean rotor surfaces with brake cleaner before bedding in pads

Vehicle fitment
The kit fits the 2010–2026 Ford F-150 in 2WD and 4WD trucks, including Raptor models.
Ford trucks other than the F-150 are not covered by this list. Confirm your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
Installation notes
The caliper is a direct mount design, so check bracket alignment against the front hub before assembly. The included hoses are made for stock height trucks, and lifted F-150s may need longer hoses. Wheels should be 17 inches or larger, and the O080M template helps confirm clearance with the chosen wheel.
Brake work on a truck this size should be handled by someone with experience on hydraulic brake systems.
What’s included
The kit includes the six-piston 6T caliper, the 1-piece rotor, stainless braided hoses, mounting brackets and hardware.
