Lava Wrap Volcanic Rock Exhaust and Header Wrap
Made from crushed volcanic rock (basalt fiber), our Lava Wrap has all the same benefits as exhaust wrap, but with that trick carbon fiber appearance and improved durability. This exhaust wrap is 25-percent stronger than fiberglass wraps, giving it a prolonged life and greater durability.
Using Lava Wrap on a header and exhaust system maintains hotter exhaust gases, decreases gas density, and allows the exhaust gas to flow through the system at increased velocities. Greater exhaust scavenging is produced, pulling intake gases through the cycle faster, helping to lower air intake temperatures. This gives you more horsepower, and also reduces radiant heat damage. Lava Wrap lowers under-hood temperatures by as much as 50 percent.
Heatshield Products Lava Wrap withstands continuous temperatures of 1,200-degrees Fahrenheit and intermittent 2,000-degrees Fahrenheit. Please note this is a real world tested rating, so beware over inflated temperature ratings of similar basalt/volcanic rock products.
Installation is easy: wrap it around your exhaust pipe, using overlap to hold itself in place (like a hockey stick or tennis racket grip) and use our Thermal-Tie, hose clamps or wire products to secure the ends in place.

Installation Tips
Wrapping headers and exhaust pipes requires patience. Go slow and take
your time. Make the wrap as tight as possible – this will hold the wrap on
the pipe better and retain the most heat in the system.
Soaking The Wrap in Water
Soaking The Wrap in Water
Soaking the wrap in a bucket of water is NOT necessary. You may spray
the header/exhaust wrap with water. Spraying exhaust wrap with
water as you work can make installation easier and also reduce the amount
of fibers. It will not cause it to shrink, but it makes it stick to itself better.

If you are installing wrap on a motorcycle or powersports application, we recommend
a 50% overlap instead of the ¼” overlap during the installation process.
