Girodisc TS-1001-4 Titanium Brake Shims
The Girodisc TS-1001-4 Titanium Brake Shims are engineered specifically to combat the issue of brake fluid boiling, a common problem during high-performance driving and track days. As brake pads and rotors heat up, thermal energy can be transferred to the brake fluid through the caliper pistons, leading to fluid vaporization. This results in a loss of braking force, often described as a "spongy" brake pedal feel, which can be detrimental when precision braking is crucial.
Material and Design
These shims are constructed from 6AL-4V titanium, a material known for its low thermal conductivity, rated at just 6.7 W/mk. In comparison, steel and aluminum have thermal conductivities of 52 W/mk and 130 W/mk, respectively. This significant difference means that titanium minimizes heat transfer to the brake fluid, helping to maintain optimal braking performance even under strenuous conditions.
Easy Installation
Designed for a precise fit, the TS-1001-4 shims are water jet cut to exact specifications, eliminating the need for cutting or grinding during installation. This ensures a straightforward setup process, allowing you to focus on the track instead of the garage.
Fitment
These shims are compatible with a variety of high-performance vehicles. Here are the confirmed applications:
