Turbo Heat Shields

Product Description

Excellent turbo insulation jacket made from basalt rock fibre (outer layer) and S-TEX Silica (inner layer facing heat source from turbo) alongside a middle layer of high temperature insulation mat.
The outer basalt layer has higher tensile strength than E glass ensuring a tough and durable outer skin.
The outer basalt layer maintains integrity at temperatures up to 560°C and exhibits superior temperature resistance compared to E glass fibres in the range 300°- 560°C. Short periods to 700°C in optimum conditions.
The inner layer of S-TEX Silica Fabric is to resistant to temperatures up to 1000°C in optimum conditions.
The turbo heat shield has double reinforced seams inside and out and has riveted anchoring hooks to secure it in place in your vehicle's engine bay.

Applications

Turbo Charger Insulation Heat Shields
Excellent heat insulation of turbines and less damaging underhood heat resulting in a boost in horse power.

How long do heat shields last on a car?

A high-quality turbo heat shield can last several years, especially if it’s made from robust materials like basalt and silica composites. Longevity depends on driving conditions, heat cycles, and how securely it's installed — but under normal use, expect reliable performance for 3–5 years or more.

Can you reuse a turbo heat shield?

Yes, if the shield remains intact after removal, it can usually be reused. However, care must be taken not to bend or damage the insulation layers, seams, or fixing points. Reuse is more viable with riveted or hook-secured shields than adhesive-based ones.

What is the difference between a blanket and a turbo shield?

A turbo blanket is a flexible wrap that’s manually fitted around the turbo housing, while a turbo heat shield is typically a more tailored, pre-formed jacket. Shields usually offer easier installation, a neater fit, and more consistent insulation performance — especially with multi-layer construction like basalt and silica.
