This titanium backing plate kit consist of 4 plates, that help to
prevent brake fluid from boiling. Titanium as a material, has low
thermal conductivity. This means that it is very bad at transferring
heat. When a thin titanium shim placed between the pad back and the
pistons, the braking heat is kept from transferring into the pistons and
fluid. For cars that are going to see hard or multiple track days,
these shims are a good protection from loosing the pedal pressure due to
boiling brake fluid. Water jet cut to exact size, no cutting or grinding
involved.
