Ready, Get Set… Go!

There’s nothing worse than firing up your engine only to have the starter fail from heat soak. Prevent starter heat lock and launch with confidence using the HP Starter Shield, a proprietary starter motor heat wrap designed to block excessive heat and extend the life of your starter and solenoid. Available in single or double-insulated models, this automotive heat shield is perfect for a wide range of applications. For vehicles with limited space between the starter and heat sources like headers or exhaust.

Simple Hook-and-Loop Installation

The HP Starter Shield comes in two convenient sizes—eliminating the need to cut or trim. Installation is quick: just wrap it around your starter and secure it with the integrated hook-and-loop system. For best results, position the hook-and-loop seam away from the direct heat source to protect the fasteners and ensure long-term performance.
