That s why a ceramic coating is sometimes recommended more than a wrap because it won t affect tight areas in the same way. But it is less expensive than ceramic coating. After that same minute the stainless headers were still 520 degrees. Header wrapping involves wrapping an insulating cloth around the primary tubes and collector.

Wrapped headers are a popular choice for a lot of different. This causes temperatures to continue to rise beyond the normal exhaust gas temperatures egt s the header material was designed to withstand. As the header heats up and expands stretching the header wrap slightly it allows a slight gap when the header cools. Exhaust wrap liberrway header wrap this exhaust wrap is carefully manufactured using pulverized lava rock and excels in reducing the overall temperature by 50.

The insulating properties of header wrap will help the scavenging process even more because unlike ceramic the material used in header wraps don t retain heat on the surface. Header wrap is more expensive than high temp paint. This area even though very small can now condensate sweat. The material and the composition also enable good thermal resistivity allowing the exhaust wrap to function optimally in temperatures of 1400 direct heat and 2000 intermittent heat.

Ceramic is a highly durable substance that resists corrosion and stands up to a large amount of abuse. Dei s titanium wrap is resistant to chemicals and will retain its original color for the life of the wrap which can be three to five years. Barely hot enough to boil water.
