Gold Heat Reflective Tape/Material/Wrap for Air Intake Systems
Advanced Thermal Shielding for Enhanced Engine Efficiency
Product Overview
Engineered for superior heat management, our Gold Heat Reflective Material (also referred to as Gold Heat Resistant Wrap or Gold Heat Reflective Tape) is a multi-application solution designed to protect air intake hoses and critical engine components from radiant and convective heat. Utilizing aerospace-grade material science, this product combines extreme temperature resistance with optimized airflow preservation for automotive, motorsport, and industrial applications.
Core Technology
Triple-Layer Architecture:
Gold-Plated Outer Layer: 97% infrared reflectivity (ASTM E424-71)
Fiberglass-Reinforced Barrier: Thermal conductivity <0.04 W/m·K (ASTM D5470)
High-Tack Silicone Adhesive: Bonds to -50°C to +315°C surfaces (MIL-STD-331B certified)
Dual-Function Design: Simultaneously reflects external heat radiation and isolates internal airflow from engine bay heat soak.
Performance Validation
Intake Air Cooling: Maintains ΔT ≤8°C vs. ambient under hood temperatures of 150°C+
Mechanical Resilience: 200hr salt spray resistance (ASTM B117), 50,000+ flex cycles (SAE J2366)
Electromagnetic Compliance: 360° EMI shielding at 30-1000 MHz (EN 61000-4-21 certified)
Application-Specific Benefits
Turbocharged Systems: Reduces post-intercooler air temp by 12-18°C (dyno-verified)
EFI Vehicles: Prevents MAF/IAT sensor errors caused by heat-induced density fluctuations
Industrial Pneumatics: Protects polymer hoses from dryer exhaust/steam line degradation
Installation Guidelines
Surface Prep: Abrade + clean with Loctite SF 7063 (SAE J1526 compliant)
Tension Control: Apply 2-3 N/cm² pressure during spiral wrapping (50% overlap minimum)
Curing Protocol: 24hr ambient cure or 1hr @80°C accelerated bonding
