| |   An application of sound shielding, depending on how much is used, can typically reduce road noise dramatically by between 3 and 15dB - equating to 30% to 80% reduction. The greatest difference is often seen on older cars where factory-fitted noise reduction and heat shielding was so limited. Even car doors will shut with that reassuring heavy clunk, rather than a clang after shielding is fitted, giving the perception of quality and a better car. Typically 25% to 50% area coverage will prevent a specific panel from resonating, alternatively it can be applied over the entire floor, doors or boot to create a complete sound barrier and vibrational damper.
Products primarily designed as a heatshield mat will also alleviate noise & vibration although their primary purpose is heat insulation - usually to prevent heat from damaging components exposed to it, eg bonnet underside insulation to protect the topside paint. This product is also used effectively to help retain heat in an insulation capacity where it is beneficial to do so, eg the interior of camper vans.
Individual heat protection solutions & ancillary items (starter motor, plug tubes etc) are also detailed on this page.

| |   Thermal reflective heat shield tape wrapping.
Woven fibreglass insulation with aluminium facing. Insulation is provided by the fibreglass, aluminium reflects the heat.
As well as being employed instead of standard exhaust wrap it is often employed to wrap engine ancillaries to protect from radiant heat of exhaust etc and reflects over 90 percent of radiant heat away from wires, lines, cables, hoses, starter motors etc.
Excellent protective wrap for fuel lines, hoses, oil lines, brake lines or radiator hoses. Also helps to solve fuel vapourisation problems. Resistant to solvents & other liquids.
Withstands up to 1,100 degrees F (590C) of radiant heat and 500 degrees F (260C) of direct contact
Choice of widths, thickness and length.
Easily installed with stainless ties

|
| |   Used for edging heat shield matting.
50mm wide(Code: 213 9M) |
|
| |   Helps reduce vehicle Noise Vibration Harshness (NVH)
Use for any flat panels that may vibrate or drum (eg bonnet underside, door panel internals, floorpan etc)
In our experience particularly effective in replacing "hollow" sound on some car doors with more confidence inspiring "clunk" when fitted to internal door cavity.
Bitumen based, self adhesive.
Will conform to vehicle body contours and can be overpainted.

| |   Black silicone coated fibreglass fire sleeve.
Designed to protect wires, hoses, and cables from high temperature exposure and liquid spills.
Resistant to solvents & other liquids
Withstands 2,000 degree F (1090C) of radiant heat and 500 degrees F (260C) of direct contact
Available in a choice of diameters. Sold in meter lengths (eg if you order 3 meters you will receive 3 lots of 1 meter, not a single piece 3 meters long)
