Heat Shield Protection

Our premium marine exhaust heat shield range is designed to deflect radiant heat, protect surrounding parts, and extend the life of your boat’s systems. Whether you’re cruising, racing, or working offshore, trust Kool Wrap to keep your vessel running cooler and more reliably.

Why You Need Marine Heat Shield Protection

Boat engines often operate in tight compartments with limited ventilation. As temperatures rise, critical components like hoses, wires, fuel lines, and control systems are exposed to harmful radiant heat. Installing a boat engine heat shield prevents damage, reduces the risk of engine bay fires, and boosts overall performance.

Kool Wrap offers versatile and effective marine heat barrier shields that are easy to install and suitable for both diesel and petrol marine engines. Don’t wait for heat damage to occur – take preventive action with the right protection.

Features of Kool Wrap’s Marine Exhaust Heat Shield

1. Advanced Heat-Reflective Technology

Our marine exhaust heat shields are built using high-performance materials such as aluminium foil, fibreglass, basalt, and stainless steel mesh. These materials reflect up to 95% of radiant heat, keeping temperatures under control in the engine bay.

2. Marine-Grade Durability

All Kool Wrap heat shields are water-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and built to withstand salt spray, moisture, and vibration. Designed specifically for boats, our marine heat shield protection performs reliably in even the harshest marine conditions.

3. Easy to Trim and Install

Kool Wrap heat shields are flexible, lightweight, and easy to cut, allowing you to customize the shape for your exhaust manifolds, turbochargers, downpipes, or firewall barriers. Installations can be done using clamps, bolts, or adhesive depending on the product.

4. Improves Performance and Safety

A cooler engine bay isn’t just about longevity—it improves performance too. Cooler ambient temperatures reduce intake temps, improve combustion efficiency, and reduce the chance of heat soak in nearby systems.

Types of Marine Heat Barrier Shields Available

Exhaust Heat Shields

Our marine exhaust heat shields are ideal for wrapping or shielding manifolds and exhaust piping. They reduce radiant heat and help improve the flow of exhaust gases, reducing backpressure.

Engine Bay Shields

Our boat engine heat shield options include universal mats and custom shapes to fit near fuel lines, intake piping, control modules, and other heat-sensitive parts.

Turbo Heat Blankets and Shields

If your marine engine uses a turbo, Kool Wrap’s turbo heat shields keep heat trapped within the turbo housing, improving boost response and preventing engine bay overheating.

Benefits of Installing a Boat Engine Heat Shield

Protects Engine Components

Heat is one of the biggest enemies of marine engines. A marine exhaust heat shield protects your wiring, plastics, and hoses from degradation and failure caused by extreme temperatures.

Increases Equipment Life

By minimizing heat exposure, your electrical and mechanical systems will last longer and perform better. A marine heat shield protection solution is a smart investment in reducing future maintenance and replacement costs.

Improves Comfort and Safety

A cooler engine compartment can also reduce heat transfer to cabins or deck spaces, improving onboard comfort and reducing the risk of burns during maintenance.

Enhances Overall Performance

Reduced engine bay heat helps lower air intake temperatures, improving fuel economy and power output. The marine heat barrier shield creates a stable environment for optimal engine operation.

Where to Use Marine Heat Shields on a Boat

• Around exhaust manifolds and risers
• Near turbochargers and downpipes
• On fuel lines, oil lines, and coolant hoses
• Between the engine and bulkheads or deck walls
• Around batteries and sensitive electronics

Our flexible product line ensures you get a tailored solution for every area that needs thermal protection.

How to Install Marine Heat Shield Protection

1. Identify the areas in your engine bay that are exposed to high heat.
2. Select the appropriate Kool Wrap heat shield based on temperature and space.
3. Measure and Cut the material to size using scissors or a utility knife.
4. Secure it using stainless steel clamps, bolts, or adhesive-backed versions.
5. Inspect after the first few engine runs and re-secure if needed.
