COMMENTS:
The common problem of brake fluid boiling is simply traced
to heat transferring from the rotors and pads directly into the fluid through
the caliper pistons. When brake fluid boils, it releases air that is normally
part of the molecular structure of the fluid. This air is compressible and the
brake pedal goes to the floor instead of moving the caliper pistons. Titanium
as a material has very low thermal conductivity (2.5 times LESS efficient that
carbon steel), meaning it is very ineffective at transferring heat, which is
ideal for keeping fluid cool. The RSS solution helps
prevent fluid from boiling by using thin titanium shields placed between the
pad back and the pistons, this reduces the braking heat from transferring into
the pistons and fluid.
Always check the part number before ordering!
