Protective Motorbike Exhaust Wrap and Heat Shields

A motorbike exhaust wrap is a high temperature insulating wrap designed to retain heat within the exhaust pipes of motorcycles. Its main function is to improve thermal efficiency and reduce external surface temperatures.

A motorcycle exhaust pipe heat shield, or motorcycle exhaust heat shield, serves a similar function. It protects riders and components from excessive heat while enhancing overall engine performance and safety.

At Kool Wrap, we use premium-quality fibreglass to give you an exhaust wrap that is durable and heat resistant. Similarly, our motorcycle exhaust pipe heat shield is made to give you maximum protection while being in the competitive price range.

Why is it important?

• Improved Performance: Retaini ng heat potentially boosts horsepower.
• Lower Temperatures: Exhaust wrap dramatically reduces under-hood or under-seat temperatures.
• Rider Safety: Reduces the risk of burns from exposed hot exhaust pipes.
• Aesthetics & Noise Control: Provides a custom, rugged look while slightly dampening exhaust noise.

What Are Exhaust Wraps and Heat Shields?

Exhaust Wrap: This is a tightly woven material (often fiberglass or basalt) that is wrapped around the exhaust pipes or headers. Its job is to insulate the hot exhaust gases, keeping them hotter inside the pipe so they exit more quickly, which can help with exhaust velocity and reduce heat radiating outward.

Heat Shield / Exhaust Pipe Heat Shield: A more rigid or semi-rigid barrier placed between the exhaust and anything else (tank, frame, wiring, or rider’s legs). It reflects or blocks heat, preventing it from reaching sensitive parts or contact points.
