Product Information

Full details

The Design Engineering Heat Shroud is designed for automotive enthusiasts and DIY mechanics needing to protect vital wiring and hoses from extreme engine bay heat. Its key benefit is the easy, wrap-around installation using a Velcro-type closure, allowing application without removing components. A potential limitation is that its effectiveness relies on secure closure and proper fit around the targeted component.

FAQs

What is the maximum direct temperature the Heat Shroud can withstand?

The Heat Shroud can withstand direct heat up to 250°C (482°F).

How does it handle radiant heat?

It is designed to reflect radiant heat exceeding 1000°C (1832°F), significantly protecting nearby components.

Do I need to remove the hose or wire to install it?

No, the wrap-around design with Velcro-type closure allows for installation without removing wires or hoses.

Are there different sizes available?

Yes, it is available in various sizes, including specific options for -12, -16, and -20 AN hose sizes, as well as universal sizes suitable for diameters between 2" and 2.5".

What material is it made from?

It is constructed from fibreglass fabric bonded to an aluminum material.

Can it be cut to size?

While it can be wrapped to fit various diameters, cutting is not recommended as it may compromise the material integrity and heat resistance.

How should I clean the Heat Shroud?

Clean the Heat Shroud using a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Troubleshooting

Heat Shroud not staying closed

Ensure the Velcro-type closure is clean and firmly pressed. If the shroud is too small for the component, it may not close properly. Consider a larger size or a different wrapping technique.

Visible heat damage on protected component

Verify the Heat Shroud was installed correctly, covering the entire vulnerable section. Ensure the shroud is rated for the level of direct and radiant heat present. Check for gaps in coverage or if the shroud is nearing the end of its lifespan.

Abrasion on the exterior of the Heat Shroud

While abrasion-resistant, prolonged rubbing against sharp or rough surfaces can cause wear. Reposition the shroud or add an additional layer of protection if continuous abrasion is expected.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Easy to install without removing hoses or wires
  • Effective protection against direct and radiant heat
  • Adaptable to various component sizes due to its flexible design
  • Durable construction for long-lasting use
  • Quick and secure closure mechanism

Cons

  • May not provide a completely sealed fit on oddly shaped components
  • Specific sizes are required for AN hoses, limiting universal application for those fittings
  • Requires careful wrapping to ensure maximum heat reflection and coverage
  • Material may degrade over extended periods of extreme direct heat exposure
  • Effectiveness can be reduced if not properly secured

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Unroll the Heat Shroud. Wrap it snugly around the wire or hose needing protection. Secure the ends using the integrated Velcro-type closure. Ensure there is no significant gap for optimal heat reflection. For specific AN hose sizes (-12, -16, -20), select the corresponding pre-sized shroud. For general wiring or hoses, the universal sizes can be wrapped tightly to fit diameters from 2" to 2.5".

Compatibility: Compatible with most automotive and industrial applications where heat protection is needed for wires, hoses, cables, and other components. Available in specific sizes for common AN hose fittings and also in universal sizes.

Care: Clean with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals. Inspect periodically for damage or wear, especially after exposure to extreme temperatures.
