Girodisc Front Titanium Pad Shields for Porsche 991 Turbo | Turbo S (2013-2016) - TS-1741-4

If you've ever found yourself at the track, you know the frustration of brake fluid boiling. It's not just a theory; it's a reality that happens when heat from your rotors and pads makes its way into the fluid through the caliper pistons. When that fluid boils, it releases air bubbles, and suddenly your brake pedal feels like a sponge—going straight to the floor instead of giving you the stopping power you need. This is especially common for production cars on track days, since they often lack the advanced cooling ducts and high-end brake materials that true racing machines have.

Now, if you dive into the world of racing, you’ll notice that top-tier brake calipers use titanium pistons. Why titanium? Well, it’s all about thermal conductivity. Titanium has a low thermal conductivity rating of just 6.7 W/mk, which means it doesn’t transfer heat very well. Compare that to steel at 52 W/mk and aluminum at a whopping 130 W/mk, and it’s easy to see why titanium is the go-to for keeping your brake fluid cool under pressure.

That’s where Girodisc comes in with a smart solution. They’ve designed a thin titanium shim that fits snugly between your brake pad backing and the pistons. This little piece of engineering magic does wonders to keep the heat where it belongs—away from your brake fluid. If you’re planning to hit the track hard or do multiple sessions in a day, these shims are a smart, cost-effective way to protect yourself from that dreaded loss of pedal feel. Trust me, you don’t want to find out how expensive a brake failure can be in the middle of a hot lap.

Features:

  • Water jet cut to exact size—no messy cutting or grinding required.
  • Price is per axle, so you get four pieces for your setup.

Fitments:

  • Porsche 991 Turbo | Turbo S

Specifically, these are designed for the Porsche 991.1 Turbo models from 2013 to 2016, with part number TS-1741-4. If you care about your braking performance on the track, these titanium pad shields are a solid investment.
