010454 Design Engineering Titanium Pipe Shield 4in x 1ft
Extreme heat can rob power and potentially damage engines, transmissions, hoses, and sensitive electrical components. DEI, a market leader in thermal protection, has introduced a revolutionary advancement in pipe shield technology that greatly outperforms Mylar-backed glass fibre shields. DEIs Titanium Pipe Shield combines the high heat tolerance of DEIs proprietary LR fibre technology with a unique rivet-based clamp shield design to improve heat dissipation and cooling. Glass fibre shields can begin to fail at 900F with the Mylar outer material cracking and flaking off. DEIs Titanium Pipe Shield provides heat protection up to 1350 degrees Fahrenheit. LR fibre technology is a two-ply material. The outer layer is made from pulverised and stranded lava rock into a proprietary tightly woven weave for durability and strength. The inside material is made of a special high temperature resistant fabric (89% silica) designed to withstand 350 degrees more heat than glass fibre. This proprietary fibre technology combined with DEIs unique shield standoff bracket design provides an air gap between the shield and pipe that together provides the maximum potential for cooling and heat dissipation. With the strategic placement of DEIs Titanium Pipe Shield near transmissions, brake lines, floorboards, body panels, diesel exhaust stacks or motorcycle pipes, radiant heat can be controlled for maximum protection and performance. Other uses include isolated areas such as sections of the exhaust pipe after the collector, an area that can heat transmission fluid, or along the path of an exhaust system in proximity of gas tanks, differentials and rear facias. The shield is designed for multiple automotive applications as well as marine, powersports, diesel and industrial applications where heat dissipation and thermal control is needed.
