DEI Introduces Form-A-Shield

Design Engineering, which is one of leading innovators of heat and sound solutions for the automotive aftermarket has developed and launched a new thermal product named Form-A-Shield. This product can be applied directly to hot surfaces to provide them with high levels of heat protection. It is made of flexible 10 mil dimpled aluminum with 1/4” high temperature basalt insulation. DEI’s Form-A-Shield has the capability to tolerate direct temperatures which are as high as +1400°F.

Form-A-Shield can offer outstanding thermal protection against direct and radiant heat for important automotive components like electrical parts, wire, hose or plastic parts, which are positioned close  to headers, manifolds, mufflers or transmissions.

There are two techniques to apply Form-a-Shield. It can be applied either mechanically, or with DEI’s Hi-Temp Spray Adhesive. Other notable characteristics of the product are that it is extremely pliable, easy to trim and easily conforms to almost any shape. It is available in two sizes. Sizes are available in either 42” x 48” (Part # 050516) or 21” x 48” (Part # 050517).
