034Motorsport Caliper Bracket, Rear B5 300mmx22mm Brake Rotor Upgrade
When you're pushing your car to the limit on track, knowing how hot your brakes are running is critical. 034Motorsport Temperature Indicating Caliper Stickers provide a simple, accurate, and affordable way to monitor peak brake caliper temperatures, allowing you to evaluate brake system performance and make informed setup decisions between sessions.
These adhesive-backed indicator strips install in seconds on any clean, smooth surface and feature eight temperature increments covering a range from 250°F to 536°F (121°C to 280°C). As each temperature threshold is reached, the corresponding indicator permanently changes from silver to black, creating a clear record of the highest temperature observed during your session.
Temperature monitoring is an invaluable tuning tool for any performance-oriented driver. Whether you're evaluating brake pad compounds, testing new brake cooling solutions, or ensuring your braking system operates within its ideal temperature window, these indicators provide instant feedback without the need for expensive electronic sensors or data-acquisition equipment.
For brake calipers, temperatures between 250°F and 330°F (121°C–166°C) represent the ideal operating range for most track applications. Readings approaching 370°F–450°F (188°C–232°C) indicate elevated operating temperatures where brake components should be inspected after each event. Temperatures exceeding 450°F (232°C) suggest excessive heat that may require improvements to brake cooling, pad selection, or overall system setup to maintain consistent braking performance and long-term reliability.
NOTE: These temperature indicator stickers are single-use. Once a temperature threshold has been reached and permanently recorded, lower temperatures cannot be indicated on the same sticker.
Before applying the Temperature Indicating Caliper Stickers, the calipers need to be clean. If the stickers are applied to a dirty caliper, they will more than likely not stay on, and the sticker will then be unusable. An aerosol brake cleaner on a rag is the easiest way to achieve this, but for especially dirty calipers, the use of a plastic wire brush will help, but first check that the plastic is solvent safe before using it on the caliper.
