About Heat Treated Fiberglass Tape
Heat Treated Fiberglass Tape
Constructed from a high temperature base fiberglass tape with heat treatment to clean the sizing and organic content.
Property:
Heat treatment to burn out organic i.e. starch or silane on tapes
Used in places where no smokes allowed
Highly flexible and minimal shrinkage
Ideal tape used to wrap manifold ,header, turbo and exhaust
Used at 1000 degree F / 537 degree C continuous Manifold and header wrapping is widely accepted as standard practice for performance auto and racing applications. There are two reasons for this.
First, by adding an insulation layer around the exhaust gas piping, it keeps the temperature of th gas from dropping, which means the density of the gas is kept lower longer, and lower density means easier flow through the exhaust system. Easier flow means more horse power due to reduced back pressure. Retaining heat in the exhaust flow, resulting in faster exhaust gas flow, also results in higher turbo charger spool speeds, resulting in a gain of horse power.
Second,wrapping exhaust system components also reduces the temperature of other under-hood components and systems, reducing both radiated heat and convective heating of electrical components, intake air, fuel and hydraulic hoses. Reducing under-hood temperature also helps reduce hood paint thermal damage.

Superior Performance in Extreme HeatThis fiberglass tape is designed to withstand continuous temperatures up to 1000F (537C), making it highly suitable for demanding automotive and industrial environments. Its robust properties ensure reliability in applications exposed to extreme thermal stress, such as turbo, exhaust, and manifold systems.
Versatile Specifications for Multiple NeedsOffered in a range of thicknesses from 0.8mm to 6mm, widths of 15 to 200mm, and weights of 600 to 4500 GSM, the tape is available in 30 or 50 meter rolls. This flexibility allows users to select sizes best suited for their specific insulation and wrapping requirements.
Advanced Heat Treatment ProcessOur tape undergoes a thorough heat treatment process that removes sizing and organic content. This preparation reduces smoke emission during initial exposure to high temperatures, delivering a cleaner and safer application for various industries.
FAQ's of Heat Treated Fiberglass Tape:
Q: How is the heat treated fiberglass tape manufactured?
A: The tape is constructed from high-temperature texturized fiberglass, which undergoes a heat treatment process to remove sizing agents and organic material. This enhances purity and ensures superior performance under extreme heat.
Q: What are the main applications of this fiberglass tape?
A: It is primarily used for automotive manifold, header, turbo, and exhaust pipe wrapping. The tape can also be utilized in other industrial insulation and protection applications requiring high thermal resistance.
Q: When should heat treated fiberglass tape be used instead of untreated fiberglass tape?
A: Use heat treated tape when you require reduced smoke emissions, higher cleanliness, and enhanced durability in applications with continuous exposure to temperatures up to 1000F (537C).
Q: Where can I use this tape effectively?
A: This tape is effective in automotive, manufacturing, and heavy equipment environments where components are exposed to sustained high temperatures, particularly in engine and exhaust systems.
Q: What is the benefit of using heat treated fiberglass tape?
A: The main benefit is its ability to withstand and insulate against extreme heat while minimizing smoke and odor during application, resulting in a cleaner and safer working environment.
Q: How do I install the tape for automotive exhaust applications?
A: Wrap the tape securely around clean and dry surfaces of headers or pipes, overlapping each layer by half. Secure the ends with metal straps or wire for best results in high-heat environments.
