Exhaust Heat Shield to Stop 70% of Heat

This heat shield insulation material is easier to install than exhaust wrap, it also reduces more heat from your exhaust pipes and components. Heatshield Armor™ which can stop exhaust heat up to 70 percent and it is much easier to install.

Rugged Insulation Material

The outer armor of Heatshield Armor is resistant to the elements is a 4 mil this aluminum, giving the exhaust heat shield a long life. We our exclusive BioCool insulation material as the inner pad, bonded to a heavy-duty foil outer layer using a proprietary process. This makes it capable of withstanding 1,800 degrees F continuously, which allows this heatshield to be placed directly on exhaust systems, turbo manifolds, downpipes and diesel particulate filters (check with state regulations regarding usage on DPF). Because this heat shield installs directly on the exhaust system components, it performs better than the clamp-on standoff heatshields that allow heat to escape because they are set above the pipe and not directly insulating it.

Superior Performance

Heatshield Armor also offer superior performance over an all metal exhaust heat shield. The all metal heat shields have conduction with one hot side and one cold side: With Heatshield Armor, there is no metal-to-metal contact layer it uses a thermal break to create real cold side on this heat shield.

Safe - No Harsh Fibers

BioCool is a non-caustic, non-flammable bio-soluble silica thermal insulation material. It does not cause itching and won’t smoke or smell the first time it is heat-cycled. This exhaust heat shield material is flexible, easy to cut (you can use a pair of heavy-duty scissors) and may be cleaned after installation. Heatshield Armor is available in two thicknesses: 1/4-inch for most naturally aspirated applications and 1/2-inch for forced-induction and racing applications.

Do I need tin snips to cut this exhaust heat shield material?

Tin snips are not necessary. Heavy duty scissors or a fresh blade in a utility knife work great for cutting the Heatshield Armor.



I am trying to determine the number of stainless-steel locking ties to hold the insulation in place. How many do I need to secure this hat shield insulation to my exhaust pipe?

For straight lengths of exhaust pipe, one tie per every 5-6 inches should be enough. For tighter bends like a 90 degree, one locking tie per every 3 inches on the outside of the bend works. Be sure you are using the wide ties as they grip the heat shield insulation better.



Can I used the Armor Weld Tape hold the Heatshield Armor in place?

NO, do not use the tape to hold the Heatshield Armor in place. You can use the wide stainless-steel locking ties we offer, or you may use a hose clamp, safety wire, or other mechanical fastener to hold in its place. Any adhesive backed product should not come in contact with the exhaust system.
