The DEI Form-A-Shield(TM) provides an effective solution for managing extreme heat in automotive applications. Capable of withstanding direct temperatures up to 1400°F, this heat barrier is ideal for installation on exhaust headers, manifolds, turbo housings, and downpipes. Its unique construction features a 10 mil dimpled aluminum layer bonded to a high-temperature basalt thermal barrier material, offering superior insulation and heat reflection properties. This design helps reduce radiant exhaust temperatures and lower under-hood heat, contributing to improved vehicle performance and component longevity. The material's pliability allows it to conform easily to various shapes and configurations, making installation straightforward regardless of the complexity of the surface. Durable and resistant to oil and chemical spills, the Form-A-Shield can be securely fastened using straps, clamps, or DEI Locking Ties, with no adhesive backing required. For non-hot areas, DEI Adhesive Spray can be used to bond the shield as a heat reflector or barrier, broadening its versatility in heat management applications. This 12-inch by 21-inch sheet is designed for easy handling and effective heat protection in demanding automotive environments. Proper installation not only helps keep engine bay temperatures in check but also enhances overall vehicle safety and efficiency. Whether you're upgrading a high-performance build or seeking to improve heat shielding for everyday driving, the DEI Form-A-Shield offers a reliable, high-quality solution for managing extreme heat in your vehicle's exhaust system.
