Girodisc Front Titanium Pad Shields for Porsche 981 Cayman | Boxster (2014-2016)
$115.00

If you've ever pushed your brake pedal hard on the track only to feel it sink to the floor, you know how frustrating that can be. The culprit? It's usually boiling brake fluid, which happens when heat from your rotors and pads makes its way into the fluid through the caliper pistons. Once that fluid starts to boil, it releases air—something you definitely don’t want in your braking system. That air compresses, and suddenly, you’re not moving those caliper pistons like you should. It’s a problem that tends to hit production cars harder, especially during track days, since they lack the high-end cooling ducts and fancy brake materials found in true racing machines.

Now, if you look at racing calipers, they often use titanium pistons for a good reason. Titanium has a low thermal conductivity, which means it doesn’t transfer heat very well. This is great news for keeping your brake fluid cool and your pedal firm. That's where Girodisc steps in with a smart solution: thin titanium shims that sit between the brake pads and the pistons. These little guys act as a barrier, preventing heat from transferring into the fluid. To put it in perspective, here's a quick comparison of thermal conductivity ratings: Titanium 6AL-4V comes in at just 6.7 W/mk, while steel is at 52 W/mk and aluminum is a whopping 130 W/mk. You can see why titanium is the go-to choice for keeping your brakes in check.

For those of us who love to hit the track hard or tackle multiple sessions in a day, these shims are a no-brainer. They’re an affordable way to protect yourself from the dreaded brake fade that can ruin your day—and your wallet.

Features:
  • Water jet cut to fit perfectly—no messy cutting or grinding required.
  • Price covers one axle, which means you get four pieces to keep your setup solid.
Fitments:
  • Porsche 981 Cayman | Boxster

Specifically, these are the TS-1389-4 GiroDisc Front Titanium Pad Shields, designed for the Porsche 981 Cayman from 2014 to 2016. If you’re serious about your track performance, these shims are definitely worth considering.
