If you’ve got any grinding or welding to do on your winter project and that work will be near sensitive components or surfaces, an HP Welding and Torch Blanket is the first thing you’ll want to reach for. Available with either grommets or magnets for attachment, Welding and Torch Blanket is available in four different sizes, and handles up to 1800 degrees F direct-contact heat while being flag resistant. And when you’re done welding and grinding, HP Welding and Torch Blanket is a great thing to keep around for when you have to work around hot components to protect yourself from being burned. https://www.heatshieldproducts.com/hp-torch-blanket

Heatshield Armor

Running underneath the floor of your car or truck is one of the biggest heat sources on a vehicle…the exhaust system. High-temperature heat radiates upward towards the floor heat them to the point heat easily penetrates the meager factory insulation and starts giving you hot feet or cooking anything on the floor. Heatshield Armor insulates exhaust piping to significantly reduce the heat it radiates. Not only does it help make things cooler by reducing radiant heat, the extra heat kept in the exhaust system improves exhaust system performance through the increased exhaust gas temperatures.

Sticky Shield

Another way to keep a car/truck interior cooler is deflect heat away from the passenger compartment surfaces. Later vehicles have factory heatshields on floors for this purpose but aren’t that effective. Sticky Shield is a high-temp adhesive backed thermal barrier that needs just one inch of airspace to be effective and with greater air gaps can deflect over 90% of heat away from the surface it’s installed on. All the adhesive backing needs is a clean, grease/oil-free surface for proper adhesion. Easy to cut and shape to curved and angular surfaces. Especially effective for transmission tunnels to reduce interior temperatures and keep the inside of your center console (looking at you various late model generations of Corvettes) from turning into an oven. https://www.heatshieldproducts.com/hp-sticky-shield

 

Lava Shield

Heatshield Products Lava Shield thermal barrier material

Here’s a way to deflect heat from a surface and improve looks with Lava Shield thermal barrier material. Really great for firewalls, it gives the surface it’s installed on a carbon fiber appearance. It reflects up to 80% of heat radiated towards the material with just a minimum of half an inch of airspace between Lava Shield and the heat source. Adhesive backing makes for easy installation on a clean, grease/oil free surface. The material can be cut and shaped to fit curved and angular surfaces, while providing a great appearance upgrade to a dingy firewall or other underhood surface. https://www.heatshieldproducts.com/lava-shield
