TiBrake Titanium Brake Shims Testimonials

"They give me a great advantage on track days... I have been able to maintain my braking throughout each session"

"There was no fade at all. The brakes performed perfectly, at my last Trackday (without them) at Cadwell Park I had terrible brake fade. I would like to say a big thank you, they have transformed my brakes"

From Race Tech International Magazine

“EDM Precision Technologies has announced the launch of a new range of titanium brake shims. The TiBrake series aims to minimise the amount of heat transfer between the brake pad and the calliper. As a result there is less chance of thermal build up causing the brake fluid to boil and inducing pedal fade.

The secret lies with the material, which, as the name suggests, is a titanium alloy. It has an exceptionally low coefficient of thermal conductivity for a metallic material (around 7.5, as opposed to 46 for steel) and a high melting point, making it ideal as a thermal barrier. From a motorsport perspective, it also has one of the highest strength to density ratios around and, to all intents and purposes, does not corrode.

The shims are manufactured using a technique called electro discharge machining (EDM), “This method ensures the accuracy of the cut but also unlike some other cutting techniques it creates no burrs, making the shims safe to handle and install,” explains EDM Precision Technologies’ Paul Waldron. “The shims are cut to suit the size and shape of the brake pad, so that the maximum barrier between the Pad and the brake fluid is achieved.”

The company now offers TiBrake shims for various custom and standard applications, as well a range of other EDM-machined products for motorsport use.”

Titanium disc pad shims

"EDM PRECISION TECHNOLOGIES Ltd have developed these Titanium disc pad shims which fit between the back of the pad and the calliper pistons to significantly reduce the heat transfer from the pad to the brake fluid.

Titanium, used extensively in F1 and Aerospace applications, has a much lower thermal conductivity compared with other metals, making it a good thermal barrier, and it is also lightweight, strong and corrosion resistant.

Ideal for high-performance track-day or motorsport use, the TiBrake shims are superbly manufactured and undoubtedly of great benefit in preventing brake fade due to overheating in any other arduous usage, when towing for instance.
