Braking Systems
The 2002 CIK/FIA Brake Homologation period wheeled in a new era in terms of how Karting brake systems operate. Thanks to the constant an unparalleled work at OTK Kart Parts, the ‘BS 3’ self-adjusting caliper was introduced.
With the advent of magnetic enforced caliper pistons, OTK pioneered a new era, thus giving today’s Karter the ability to have solid pedal feel along with improved stopping efficiency until the last lap. The self-adjusting system also eliminates the need to use out-dated brake shims, thus improving the functionality of the braking system off the race track.
Paired with the high-potent OTK rear calipers is the OTK dual piston barking pumps. OTK braking pumps complete the perfected circuit. These pumps are noted for their unique added fluid reservoirs along with their dedicated operations to each of the rear calipers pistons (Rear Brake Applications Only).
Last Lap – Last Corner – Only OTK can give you the confidence to make the pass for victory!
Quick Notes:
BS1 – BS2 Use Non-Silicone High Temperature Brake Fluid (Motul RBF600)
BS3 – BS7 Use Silicone Based Brake Fluid (DOT 5)

In order to make product and part identification easier, J3 has included explosion diagrams for the entire Vortex engine line along with a full parts catalogue for OTK Kart Parts. J3 Competition understands that not every Karter is an expert on which brake pad, axle, or piston they need, so that’s why we’ve simplified the system – making our customers number one!
With respect to Vortex, all the internal items are number and referenced to a part number and description. Whether you order your parts over the phone, email, or through our new on-line system the assurance you need is there.
The new OTK reference document takes it to another level as all the spare parts are actual digital reference pictures. Following each pictured page is the corresponding part number and description reference.
