Track Wisdom

"Very high [brake] temperatures can also cause the brake fluid to boil with a resultant increase in pedal travel. This should be detected immediately by the driver, as a very small quantity of boiling fluid is enough for the pedal to go right to the floor without any effect; in contrast to the liquid brake fluid, the boiling part is compressible. It is particularly important that when the car has been stopped for a short time -- up to 15 or 20 minutes after a drive in which the brakes have become very hot -- the pedal is depressed for a check. When the car is at rest, brakes act as a heat sink from which heat spreads to the fluid contained in the calipers; brakes which were fully operative when the car was driven may have become totally inefficient after it has stood awhile."

Titanium Brake Shim for GM Intermediate and Stock Cars.

Titanium Brake Backing Plate for GM Intermediate Stock Cars.

We are kicking ourselves for not introducing this model earlier. It covers a huge range of GM cars from the late 60s through the 80s. This is a very popular model for a huge range of american race cars. The design we employ uses asymmetric heat shields to balance the load most effectively. Although the outer shield is not necessary for the protection of fluid from brake heat, keeping it in the plan ensures that the pads on both sides will heat up evenly as will the pressure on the rotor. Follow the link below to see the huge range of models covered by this brake heat shield.

Brake Heat Shield Backing Plate for Pontiac GTO

Titanium Brake Heat Shield for Pontiac GTO.

These powerful and heavy cars have an issue with excess brake heat at the rear axle. Some customers came to us for help, and for them we have designed a brake heat shield to fit this unique triangular shape. Normally we focus on the front axle of cars as that is where most of the heat is generated, however in this particular case there was a strong need for heat shields in the rear as well. Full fitment list for this model is:

FMSI Designation # FMSI D1048
Hawk Brake Pad # HB573
Pontiac 2004-2006 GTO (R)

We also carry a brake heat shield for the front axle of this model, as listed here.
