Monitor your brake caliper temperatures with ease using the Dixcel Brake Temperature Indicator Sticker. Designed for both street driving and high-performance motorsport applications, this innovative sticker provides a simple and effective way to track peak brake temperatures, helping you prevent overheating and protect your brake system.
Featuring irreversible color-changing technology, these stickers apply directly to your brake caliper and display the highest temperature reached. This allows drivers and technicians to detect irregularities early, optimize cooling strategies, and safeguard critical components like caliper dust boots and seals.
Key Features
- Easily monitors peak brake caliper temperatures
- Wide temperature range: 149°C to 260°C
- Irreversible color change for accurate thermal history
- Prevents caliper distortion, seal damage, and abnormal pad wear
- Ideal for daily driving and motorsport applications
- Adhesive backing for simple, direct application to caliper body
Application Notes
- Install on the exit side of the caliper (opposite disc rotation)
- Suitable for 1-piston, 2-piston, and multi-piston calipers
- Single-use only – replace after each use
Part Numbers
- CTS-F10 – Pack of 10
Important
Temperatures exceeding 230°C can damage brake seals and dust boots. If excessive heat is detected, consider upgrading to brake cooling ducts or adjusting your braking strategy to enhance component longevity.
