Made from crushed volcanic rock, Heatshield Products exhaust wrap and Lava Heat Shield Mat offer exceptional heatshielding capabilities with a sleek carbon-fiber look. This innovative insulator is designed to reflect and dissipate heat, making it the perfect choice for use as an airbox heatshield or as a heatshield barrier to protect the paint on your carbon-fiber or fiberglass hood.
What sets Lava Heat Shield™ apart is its use of basalt, a mineral derived from volcanic rock, which possesses natural chemical and acid-resistant properties. This makes Lava Heat Shield™ highly effective in harsh environments, providing reliable heat protection.
Not only can Lava Shield™ be used on firewalls to shield radiant heat, but it is also ideal for shielding heat in transmission tunnels. With Lava Shield™, you can maintain the carbon fiber aesthetic while benefiting from its exceptional heat barrier functionality. It can be used with less than 1 inch of airspace, although a minimum of 1/2 inch is recommended. Additionally, Lava Shield™ outperforms aluminum and gold barrier fabrics in applications with limited airflow, making it a superior insulator in these conditions.
Lava Shield™ is capable of withstanding direct continuous temperatures of up to 1,200 degrees F and intermittent temperatures of up to 2,000 degrees F. This ensures that it can handle even the most extreme heat conditions with ease.
Features:
- Capable of reducing up to 80% of radiant heat
- Helps shield firewalls, hoods, body panels, and floor boards
- Adhesive backing sticks to almost any clean surface (not recommended for rough or unfinished fiberglass/carbon)
- Made in the USA
