Product details

HEL Performance developed these carbon fibre brake pad shims using a high-grade carbon fibre with a resin of their own that resists combustion and holds up to temperatures above 400°C (752°F). Depending on the batch, this resin cures to a yellow or orange colour.

There is more to them than looks: HEL states that testing by a professional racing driver across road and track conditions recorded an average front caliper temperature drop of 49°C (120.2°F).

Each HEL carbon fibre shim weighs about 3.5 grams, against roughly 17 grams for a titanium shim of similar size. HEL puts the resulting saving at around 79% less weight.

Compared with titanium (around 22W/mK) and steel (around 65W/mK), carbon fibre conducts far less heat, at roughly 1W/mK. Keeping heat away from brake parts helps efficiency and lowers the risk of caliper seals being damaged by excess temperature.

Fitting these carbon fibre shims is meant to give reassurance that, under hard braking, the surrounding components stay cooler and keep working as they should.

The shims can be reused with a new set of pads, provided they are still in sound condition.

Product details

HEL Performance developed these carbon fibre brake pad shims using a high-grade carbon fibre with a resin of their own that resists combustion and holds up to temperatures above 400°C (752°F). Depending on the batch, this resin cures to a yellow or orange colour.

There is more to them than looks: HEL states that testing by a professional racing driver across road and track conditions recorded an average front caliper temperature drop of 49°C (120.2°F).

Each HEL carbon fibre shim weighs about 3.5 grams, against roughly 17 grams for a titanium shim of similar size. HEL puts the resulting saving at around 79% less weight.

Compared with titanium (around 22W/mK) and steel (around 65W/mK), carbon fibre conducts far less heat, at roughly 1W/mK. Keeping heat away from brake parts helps efficiency and lowers the risk of caliper seals being damaged by excess temperature.

Fitting these carbon fibre shims is meant to give reassurance that, under hard braking, the surrounding components stay cooler and keep working as they should.

The shims can be reused with a new set of pads, provided they are still in sound condition.

Product details

HEL Performance developed these carbon fibre brake pad shims using a high-grade carbon fibre with a resin of their own that resists combustion and holds up to temperatures above 400°C (752°F). Depending on the batch, this resin cures to a yellow or orange colour.

There is more to them than looks: HEL states that testing by a professional racing driver across road and track conditions recorded an average front caliper temperature drop of 49°C (120.2°F).

Each HEL carbon fibre shim weighs about 3.5 grams, against roughly 17 grams for a titanium shim of similar size. HEL puts the resulting saving at around 79% less weight.

Compared with titanium (around 22W/mK) and steel (around 65W/mK), carbon fibre conducts far less heat, at roughly 1W/mK. Keeping heat away from brake parts helps efficiency and lowers the risk of caliper seals being damaged by excess temperature.

Fitting these carbon fibre shims is meant to give reassurance that, under hard braking, the surrounding components stay cooler and keep working as they should.

The shims can be reused with a new set of pads, provided they are still in sound condition.

There is more to them than looks: HEL states that testing by a professional racing driver across road and track conditions recorded an average front caliper temperature drop of 49°C (120.2°F).

Each HEL carbon fibre shim weighs about 3.5 grams, against roughly 17 grams for a titanium shim of similar size. HEL puts the resulting saving at around 79% less weight.

Compared with titanium (around 22W/mK) and steel (around 65W/mK), carbon fibre conducts far less heat, at roughly 1W/mK. Keeping heat away from brake parts helps efficiency and lowers the risk of caliper seals being damaged by excess temperature.

Fitting these carbon fibre shims is meant to give reassurance that, under hard braking, the surrounding components stay cooler and keep working as they should.

The shims can be reused with a new set of pads, provided they are still in sound condition.

Product details

HEL Performance developed these carbon fibre brake pad shims using a high-grade carbon fibre with a resin of their own that resists combustion and holds up to temperatures above 400°C (752°F). Depending on the batch, this resin cures to a yellow or orange colour.
