The Original Volcanic Fiber Wrap
Heatshield Products pioneered crushed volcanic rock fiber wraps to improve exhaust flow, boost horsepower, and protect critical components from heat.
When it comes to extreme heat, Lava Exhaust Wrap delivers. Made from crushed volcanic rock, this original basalt wrap is 25% stronger than traditional fiberglass for longer life and better performance. It’s our most durable, most efficient exhaust wrap yet — built to handle serious heat.
Some brands claim their volcanic wraps handle 1800°F continuously—but that’s misleading. Basalt begins to melt at those temps. Our Lava Exhaust Wrap is rated for 1200°F continuous and 2000°F intermittent. That’s a real-world spec you can trust.
Lava Wrap, made from volcanic rock fibers, is stronger than fiberglass wraps and naturally resistant to chemicals, water, and acids. This durability makes it ideal for naturally aspirated applications and one of the best options for most vehicles.
Use the fold-over technique by tucking an extra 1/2 to 1 inch of wrap at the start and end. Alternatively, apply high-temperature clear engine paint to seal the edges before cutting. Avoid overpriced silicone sprays—quality engine or exhaust paint works just as well and lasts longer.
We rate Lava Wrap honestly at 1200°F for sustained use, with brief tolerance for 2000°F flash temperatures. Claims of continuous 1800°F performance should be verified. Properly installed wraps resist water and prevent rust, as volcanic rock fibers are naturally water-resistant and high exhaust temperatures quickly evaporate moisture.
Initial smoking is normal as starches burn off during the first heat cycles—run these outdoors to avoid unpleasant odors. Smoking stops within 20 minutes to a few days, depending on system temperature. For air intake or intercooler pipes, use radiant heat shields like Thermaflect Sleeve or Cold-Gold Tape instead of wraps, as insulating these components can harm performance.
