Paragon Titanium Rear Brake Pad Shims – 02-17 STI / PA026 Caliper

Paragon Titanium Brake Pad Shims are a high-performance heat management upgrade for track and racing environments. Crafted from premium Grade 5 titanium (6AL-4V / ASTM B348), these shims sit between the brake pads and calipers, acting as an effective thermal barrier to reduce heat transfer and lower brake system operating temperatures.

By limiting heat transfer to the calipers and brake fluid, these shims help prevent brake fade and fluid boil, ensuring consistent braking performance and pedal feel during demanding driving conditions. They also help protect vital components like caliper seals and dust boots, reducing long-term maintenance costs and extending the life of your braking system.
