Thermal Blockā¢ - Heat Shield
Does your newly restored vehicle send heat through the firewall and floorboards once the engine gets going? Keep engine and exhaust heat away from the vehicle's cabin with an OEM approved heat shield. Thermal Blockā¢ strips are very flexible and can withstand up to 800Ā°F. Composed of highly reflective foil and insulating PET fibers, just face the foil side towards any heat source to redirect radiant heat and substantially reduce heat transfer.
*The "No Fold", 4 sheet, and 10 sheet options ship flat in a 12" x 24" box. The "Folded" option is delivered folded over inside of a mailer.
Features
- Highly reflective aluminum surface designed to face a heat source (choose between smooth or knurled finish)
- Each heat shield is 1/8" thick and 12" x 24" (2 Sq Ft)
- Reflects 98% of radiant heat
- Withstands up to 800Ā°F
- Treated for water, solvent, mildew, gas/oil, coolant, engine fluid, and flame resistance

Common Product Uses
Common Product Uses
- Quick fix for automotive thermal hot spots such as the fuel tank, fuel line, brake line, spare tire, and underbody heat shields. Also commonly used as a firewall heat shield.
- Always face Thermal Blockā¢'s aluminum side towards the heat source. This product will not be effective inside your car's cabin.
- Allow space for air flow. At least 2 inches is required, but more airflow will improve your heat control.
- Thermal Block can be installed on top of Damplifier Proā¢ vibration dampening mats.
- Make sure you prepare the surface to remove oils, dirt, dust, and grease. Just peel and stick. We recommend an outside temperature of at least 65Ā°F to ensure adhesive works properly.
- For thermal insulation with more sound absorbing properties, consider our Heat Wave Proā¢ or Mega Blockā¢.
