GiroDisc Porsche 911 Carrera (991.2) w/PCCB Rear Titanium Pad Shields
The GiroDisc TS-1740-4 Titanium Pad Shields are a high-performance upgrade for 2017-2019 Porsche 911 Carrera (991.2) models equipped with PCCB (Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes) rear calipers. These shields replace the factory steel pad backing plates with lightweight, heat-resistant titanium construction to reduce unsprung weight, improve heat dissipation, and enhance brake performance under extreme conditions. Titanium’s superior thermal properties minimize heat transfer to the pads, reducing fade and maintaining consistent pedal feel during track sessions or spirited driving. Precision-machined for perfect fitment within GiroDisc or PCCB calipers, these shields maintain full pad contact and piston alignment. Ideal for track-focused 991.2 Carrera owners seeking reduced weight, better cooling, and improved braking consistency without compromising safety or pad life.
