I like the 2-in gap after he wrapped it
Hello Anthony. Thank you for the comment. The gap is necessary to allow the pipe to breathe. The silica insulation can take much more heat than your traditional wrap so leaving the gap is very necessary especially if the pipe is thin walled. It seems crazy we know... but even with the gap our Heatshield Armor will still reduce temps off the pipe up to 70%. We also make some pre gapped and pre riveted exhaust pipe heat shields. www.heatshieldproducts.com/exhaust-pipe-heat-shield-kit
@@Heatshieldproducts I'm not trying to be disrespectful . Allow the pipe to breathe? As in come out the end of the tailpipe? The whole point is to wrap the whole thing is to keep heat away from something correct? Just a dumb example if I went out to the garage and only wrapped half my hot water heater with insulation what would that do let it breathe. Or if I was to ceramic coat my headers should I only do 90%.
@@anthonypapa8676 We understand. It is a recommendation. We do not know what type of pipes you bought. If the pipe wall is thin (most are) and you insulate the entire pipe you could run the risk of fatiguing the metal. The example of the hot water heater makes sense, but the temps are no where near the heat of the exhaust of a motor. We know you are not trying to be disrespectful. It's all good. We really appreciate the comments and replies.
*I have a 2004 Lexus gs300 downpipe with the last cat that has a two piece aluminum heat shield around the length of it. Can this replace it? PLEASE HELP ASAP?*
im moving away from exhaust wrap, I have been using various heat wraps on top of thermally coated pipes and am tired of having to re-wrap subaru manifolds every two years
So what do you use
@@boooshannon I was using PTP wrap, turbo blanket is one thing but header wrap no more
What is the point of having a breathing gap gor the pipe if you want to insulate it. Will wraping the section of pipe the entire circumference cause unforseen problems? I ask because I going to use this soon on my turbo manifolds and downpipes/ catalytic converter. After the exhaust is past the engine bay it will be bare metal and unwrapped. You can probably tell that my aim is to reduce engine bay temps.
Thank you for watching. The short answer is - you do not want to over insulate your pipe. Because the Armor™ series is so much more effective than traditional exhaust wraps, you must allow the pipe to breathe a little. Additionally, you should never wrap a cast manifold with any exhaust wrap. Only cover 50% of a cast manifold or header with the Armor™ series of insulation.
How do you ensure the product stays in place?
Hello HM Roa. You can use our Thermal Ties which are stainless steel straps. www.heatshieldproducts.com/thermal-tie is the link. You can also use our Power Anchor Kit. www.heatshieldproducts.com/hp-power-anchor is the link.
Do you hire people to hold it in place while driving. That tape won’t hold it!!
Comment of the day!! Use the Thermal Ties to hold down the Armor. The tape was just there to hold it in place to get it ready for the thermal ties. We do have plenty of newer videos... But thank you for watching and commenting.
Why the massive gap?
Thank you for your question. The gap is there to allow the pipe to breathe. This product works so well that without the gap you could over heat the pipe. More below.
@@Heatshieldproducts Damn, I thought you want to flush all heat out via flow, and pipe heat will never go past EGT temps anyways!? Hench complete ceramic coatings with multi layer dressing in some performance motorsports!?
@@BUZDRIFT On passenger car and light trucks, the wall thicknesses of the exhaust systems do not allow for this method. The Heatshield Armor is so effective at retaining heat you must allow some heat to escape. Wraps are not as efficient at retaining heat, so on thinner wall exhaust systems they work fine.
In marine, power generation, and heavy duty applications the wall thickness on the exhaust pipes is greater. We definitely recommend wrapping the entire pipe in these applications.
@@Heatshieldproducts No one is going to use this stuff $$$$ for OEM applications (stock) you're kidding yourself if you think that! As for Performance car builds etc etc, would be wrapping the entire front half of the exhaust at least!
Actually people do use this for OEM and aftermarket. Compared to replacement for an OEM shield these kits are quite a savings. When we were speaking about the thinner wall exhaust that does include aftermarket performance exhaust as well. We strongly recommend using the gap.
Can you imagine someone actually going to a recording studio to make that song? Jeez
Sounds like it is time to remake this video. LOL
@@Heatshieldproducts lol I’m sorry man, your presentation was well done, clear and concise 👍
@@KevinPDunn It is all good. The music is a bit annoying on that video. It is on the list to update after we edit Heatshield Fest 2022
@@Heatshieldproducts Heatshield Fest 2022 sounds cool, something to look forward to. I’ll be placing an order soon, something else to look forward to. Have a great week 👍
@@KevinPDunn The Heatshield Fest video should hit this week. After that we will think about re-making this one. Thanks for being a customer.
next time cut the band practice in the background.. and dont read so fast.
Thank you for the comment. We do have several updated videos installing Heatshield Armor. Check out th-cam.com/video/1GBdAT452zw/w-d-xo.html for a step by step and some great FLIR video showing the heat reduction results on the pipe.
looked awful with that gaping slot honestly.
Thank you for your honest opinion.
