Testimonials

Hi Heather,
While things do not always go according to plan sometimes,
it has been very re-assuring that you have taken the time to ensure your customer was totally satisfied, there was late
delivery on my end with my freight forwarder but also there was a trust between lancershop & the customer (myself) n this case.
Lancershop could have easily said that the issue is outside the company policy of 30 days after purchase was made.
However you still took the time to investigate my claim & the honesty level of accepting that i have received half the
items purchased. This situation does represent a high sense of integrity in what you do & i applaud you & Lancershop
for demonstrating such. Thank you for the excellent customer service even with the previous carbon parts coming from
china/japan............ i do look forward to doing business with you again in the future.

Girodisc Rear Titanium Pad Shields - EVO 8/9

Product Description

The problem of brake fluid boiling is simply traced to heat transferring from the rotors and pads directly into the fluid through the caliper pistons. When brake fluid boils, it releases air that is normally part of the molecular structure of the fluid. This air is compressible of course, and the brake pedal goes to the floor instead of moving the caliper pistons. Production cars tend to suffer from this on track days more as they don't usually have the extensive cooling duct and exotic brake materials as true racing cars.True racing only brake calipers generally come with titanium caliper pistons for one reason. Titanium as a material, has low thermal conductivity. This means that it is very bad at transferring heat. Which is good if you are trying to keep your fluid cool.

The Girodisc solution to help prevent fluid boiling is to use a thin titanium shim placed between the pad back and the pistons, to keep the braking heat from transferring into the pistons and fluid.Here is a comparison of materials and their relative thermal conductivity ratings
Titanium 6AL-4V 6.7 W/mkSteel 52 W/mkAluminum 130 W/mk

You can see that Titanium will transfer far less heat than steel and especially aluminum. For cars that are going to see hard or multiple track days, these shims are cheap protection from loosing the pedal due to boiling at the wrong time and making the day very expensive.

Water jet cut to exact size, no cutting, grinding, or swearing involved.
