Repeated hard braking generates significant heat, and as temperatures rise, that heat can transfer from the brake pads into the calipers and brake fluid. Excessive temperatures can lead to brake fade, reducing stopping power and compromising braking consistency when it matters most.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003ePRL Motorsports Titanium Front Brake Shims are designed to help manage that heat. Specifically designed for the front brake calipers on the FK8 and FL5 Civic Type-R, these shims sit between the brake pads and caliper pistons, creating a thermal barrier that helps limit heat transfer into the braking system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eConstructed from high-strength 6AL-4V (Grade 5) titanium, each shim measures 1.0mm thick and offers significantly lower thermal conductivity than traditional steel shims. This helps reduce the amount of heat reaching the calipers and brake fluid, supporting more consistent braking performance during aggressive driving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstructed from high-strength 6AL-4V (Grade 5) titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.0mm thickness for effective thermal insulation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned to help minimize brake fade during repeated hard braking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBenefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignificantly lower thermal conductivity than traditional steel shims\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreates a thermal barrier between the brake pads and caliper pistons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps reduce heat transfer into the brake calipers and brake fluid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"newdescrLC\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2017–2021 Honda Civic Type-R (FK8) – Front\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2023+ Honda Civic Type-R (FL5) – Front\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's In The Box?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 - Titanium Brake Shims\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWarranty\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimited Manufacturers Warranty\u003c\/li\u003e \n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"clear\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"PRL Motorsports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50739781173318,"sku":"PRL.1245.1.TI","price":69.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0890\/6136\/files\/prl-motorsports-titanium-front-brake-shim-set-2017-honda-civic-type-r-533750_600x_9b1ad78d-fb57-432e-86ed-9613776d19e9.webp?v=1792769496","url":"https:\/\/www.maperformance.com\/products\/prl-motorsports-titanium-front-brake-shim-set-2017-honda-civic-type-r-prl-1245-1-ti","provider":"MAPerformance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
