Exhaust Header Wrap

Have used this several times. Works great and its good quality fiberglass. The bands are good too.

So, this thing does work! No matter how overdressed and overgloved you are - you WILL have itchy-scratchy from fiberglass for a number of days. We used it to wrap exhaust pipe of a Polaris Sportsman 6x6 ATV. Prior to wrapping, it got so bad/hot that it actually started to melt right side plastic cover (reflective insulation on the cover itself has deteriorated over the years too, however it was not very effective from day one as panel was always too hot and burning right leg) … We ordered extra heavy duty stainless steel ties (ball bearing kind) and thermal silicone spray. Pipe was heavy wrapped, instead of quarter inch overlap, we actually wrapped it with 1/4” under wrap. Ties every 6”. Two HEAVY coats of silicone spray (its black in color, so a very nice visual look). Reassembled (did adhere heat reflecting new foil on the plastic cover itself- separate purchase) and took machine for a “cook-off”- silicone needs to cure with 400F temps. It stunk and smoked for close to an hour while peeling on our private trail. Heat is contained now! One literally can touch a panel with a hand or leg and its barely warm (vs melting). Product does work, it is fiberglass- so use precautions when working with it; I could NOT wet mine because I was/am in the grass/dust outdoors at the cabin so tried to keep it clean from grass and sand. Quality stainless zip ties and silicone spray are a must. Next project is to wrap my CanAm under the plastics.

The SunplusTrade 2" x 50' Black Exhaust Heat Wrap Roll is a great product for protecting your motorcycle’s exhaust from heat. It’s easy to apply and the stainless ties included are sturdy and secure. The wrap itself does a great job of reducing heat and protecting nearby components. However, the wrap can be a bit itchy to handle, especially when installing, which is the only reason I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5. Once installed, it works well and looks good, so overall, it’s an excellent choice for heat protection.

WEAR GLOVES and long sleeves. Good stuff, but even though I knew better I didn't wear gloves when first putting it on my golf cart exhaust. Well the rest of that day I felt like my hands had teeny spikes in them. Finished the job a couple days later with gloves and no issues. The tape is pretty easy to work with, easily went around a very small diameter golf cart exhaust. I was concerned at first with the small amount of metal zip ties it wasn't enough but it was, as the tape holds tight and I found I only needed 1 zip tie on each end.

Great item, and worth the price.

Same wrap I get at Oriellys. Works great, holds color. Wraps easier if soaked in water first and use wire or hose clamps instead of the zip ties.

Works well for heat and changed the look of the exhaust. Unfortunately it smells very chemically and the color is wearing off after just 2 days. 3 stars because it helps with the heat, but cosmetically it’s not holding up.

I did the installation of this on my Buell XB12XT this weekend. I'm not going to repeat what others have said, but I will emphasize two things: - Wear protective garments and a dust mask! This is fiberglass tape - it will create dust. - Don't start the engine until the bike (or whatever) is outside! The initial off-gassing is intense. You probably don't want anybody downwind of it, either. I didn't wet the tape. I installed it with the pipe on the bike, and I took the chin spoiler/fairing off beforehand. I cut one piece of tape and wrapped the front pipe down to the join. My front pipe piece was roughly eight wraps, I think. I used zipties at each end to hold it while I worked. Then I taped the remainder of the header from just above the outlet joint, captured the end of the front pipe tape, and then up toward the rear exhaust. I ended up about an inch shy of the exhaust port when I ran out of tape. It'll take a good bit of fussing and adjusting the wrap to get it to fit and look right. You'll want to feed several wraps of tape loosely around the outlet - to - rear pipe before you start wrapping it - the roll won't fit between the pipe and the engine until you're well along in the job.

I used this on my refresh job on an engine built in the 2000's with that old style gold color wrap. It worked very well. I used the water technique to keep the dust down and stretch the wrap easily around the corners. After wrapping I used the new style silicone coating I found on Amazon to protect the wrap as much as possible and it looked even better than uncoated with that flat black look. Time will tell how this wrap holds up but I have had it for a few months and it still looks awesome!

Very bad quality and color fades to white very fast.

EXELENTE

Worth every dollar.

Great for exhausts at a great price.
