Protect Your Starter from Heat Damage with Lava Starter Shield™ from Heatshield Products
Escondido, CA – There are few things as frustrating and defeating as hearing only a click when you hit try to start your vehicle. Never get stuck again because of a heat-damaged starter thanks to Heatshield Products Lava Starter Shield™.
Lava Starter Shield engineered Lava with proprietary and specially formulated volcanic rock-based fibers and is rated for 1,200 degree F continuous heat and intermittent temperatures as high as 2,000 degrees F. One of the key technical advantages of Lava Starter Shield is that it preforms well even with an air gap from the heat source of only ½ inch. Other shields require at least 1 inch air gap.
In many applications it is not necessary to remove the starter to install the Lava Starter Shield. because Lava Starter Shield uses high-temperature hook and loop fastener strips to securely hold it in place. Also, unlike aluminized fiberglass shields, Lava Starter Shield doesn’t conduct electricity, so it won’t cause electrical issues.
As a starter heats up, it requires higher amperage to start the engine. Keeping the starter cool with Lava Starter Shield reduces this. Wrapping the starter with Lava Starter Shield also protects it from the additional heat caused by the addition of headers, which makes starter wear and failure an even larger risk. This innovative product uses high-temperature hook-and-loop fastener strips to make installation easy.
