Industrial Heat Shields RSS

A heat shield can be designed and utilized to shield a component from absorbing excessive heat from an external source, or can be designed to contain heat to maintain consistent gas/exhaust temperature.  This is accomplished by either, dissipating, reflecting or absorbing the heat.  At Thermal Control Products, we pride ourselves in designing many types of heat shields for applications such as exhaust thermal management, sensitive component protection, maintaining consistent gas temperatures, and protection of fuel, brake, transmission and electrical systems. The three physical properties that determine how well a heat shield works are: Reflectivity Emissivity Conductivity A radiant type heat-...

In this month’s blog from Thermal Control Products, we will be discussing Heat shields for tubing, hose and cable applications. The body of the article will focus on tubular designed heat shields. By definition; tubing, hose and cable applications are very generic terms utilized in the Automotive and Truck Industries to cover a broad spectrum of definitive applications for tubular heat shields. Applications include brake lines, fuel lines, coolant lines, A.I.R. and E.G.R tubes, E.F.I. tubing and the associated wire harness set. In addition, to the tubular type heat shield application category, wiring harnesses, battery cables, air hose and spark...

Here at Thermal Control Products, we manufacture many different thermal and protective components for all types of businesses, industries and applications. Today, we are going to discuss specific Heat Shield applications. In each of these applications, custom heat shields have become a necessity when addressing thermal environments. Heat shields designed and manufactured by Thermal Control Products provide a custom solution for your thermal requirement. Designed properly, heat shields can ensure proper temperature performance, improve endurance and longevity to surrounding components and enhance safety regarding temperature drop for cabin and cockpit occupants.
