487-4640: Exhaust Heat Shield

An Exhaust Heat Shield is used to protect the nearby components of the Engine from heat generated by the Exhaust gases. The Heat Shield helps to improve engine performance by reducing heat soak. Heat Soak occurs when the Engine components absorb heat from the Exhaust gases. The Shield is securely attached to the Exhaust using fasteners to ensure that the shield remains in place preventing any misalignments. Attributes: • Helps improve the efficiency of the Exhaust unit resulting in better engine performance and fuel economy • Reduces the risk of Engine Overheating Applications: An Exhaust Heat Shield is used to insulate and protect surrounding components from extreme heat, reduce noise, resist vibrations, and contribute to emissions control.
