This J&W Auto Parts 2x16' Titanium Exhaust Wrap is woven from natural volcanic basalt fiber. It features a peak temperature resistance of 1000°C and excellent tensile strength. Customizable options are available, making it suitable for automotive modifications, motorcycles, racing vehicles, and industrial high-temperature piping. Factory-direct supply; wholesale and OEM partnerships are welcome.
J&W Auto Parts 2x16' Titanium Exhaust Wrap is a high-temperature basalt fiber solution from a China Manufacturer, designed for exhaust heat insulation and protection. With strong tensile performance, high heat resistance, customizable specifications, and support for wholesale and OEM supply, this exhaust wrap helps reduce radiant heat around exhaust systems while meeting the sourcing needs of automotive aftermarket distributors, racing teams, modification shops, and industrial buyers.
You might be wondering:
Does this 2x16' Titanium Exhaust Wrap contain titanium?
No. It's called "Titanium" because the woven fibers carry a titanium-gray metallic tone that, once installed, gives exhaust pipes a finish similar to aftermarket titanium components – a visual detail that matters to builders who care about engine bay aesthetics.
What is it actually made of?
Basalt fiber – a continuous-filament inorganic fiber drawn from natural volcanic lava rock. Heat-resistant, non-combustible, high tensile strength, and free from chemical binders that release fumes under heat.
How does it compare to standard fiberglass wrap?
Higher heat tolerance (600-1000°C vs. ~650°C for fiberglass)
Better tensile strength retention at elevated temperatures
Significantly less skin irritation during installation

Understanding the 600°C – 1000°C Temperature Range
600°C represents the minimum recommended continuous service temperature – below this point, the thermal insulation effect becomes less meaningful, though the wrap itself will not degrade.
1000°C represents the peak temperature tolerance – the wrap will not melt, crack, or lose structural integrity when exhaust surface temperatures briefly reach this level. For prolonged operation at or near 1000°C, please consult our engineering team to confirm suitability for your specific application.
For most performance exhaust systems – headers, turbo manifolds, downpipes – surface temperatures typically fall within the 500°C – 850°C range under normal operation, making this wrap a well-matched solution.
What Problems Does This Wrap Solve?
1. Excess Radiant Heat in the Engine Bay
Exhaust pipes generate intense surface heat – enough to accelerate aging of wiring looms, rubber hoses, plastic covers, and nearby components. Over time, this leads to brittle insulation, cracked hoses, and degraded reliability.
What this wrap does: Creates a thermal barrier around exhaust pipes, trapping heat inside the tubing and reducing radiant heat transfer into the surrounding engine compartment. The result is lower under-hood ambient temperatures and extended service life for adjacent components.
2. Exhaust Gas Cooling Before the Turbo
In turbocharged applications, exhaust gas temperature is energy. As hot gas travels through the manifold and downpipe, it naturally loses heat to the surrounding air. Cooler gas contracts, slows down, and delivers weaker pulse energy to the turbine wheel – directly impacting throttle response and boost onset.
What this wrap does: Retains heat within the exhaust pipe walls, minimizing temperature drop from manifold to turbo inlet. Steadier exhaust gas velocity translates to sharper throttle sensitivity and more consistent turbo response.
3. Corrosion Risk from Road Exposure
Exhaust pipes sit directly in the path of road spray, deicing salts, and moisture – all of which accelerate external corrosion, especially in wet or coastal climates.
What this wrap does: Forms a physical barrier between the pipe surface and external elements, reducing direct contact with moisture and corrosive chemicals. This slows the onset of surface rust and extends service intervals for exhaust components.

Basalt fiber sits in the "sweet spot" of the exhaust wrap category – sufficient heat tolerance for virtually all automotive and motorcycle exhaust applications, superior mechanical properties to fiberglass, and a cleaner installation experience, all at a practical price point for performance builders and industrial users.
Customization – This Is Not a One-Size-Fits-All Product
We understand that different applications require different specifications. The Motorcycle Fiberglass Heat Shield Tape is our standard offering, but we support adjustments to fit your specific needs:
Customization Option
Details
Length
16 feet is standard. Longer or shorter rolls available on request.
Thickness
Standard thickness for most applications. Heavier variants available for higher heat load scenarios.
Color
Titanium Gray is standard. Black basalt and white fiberglass appearance options available.
Packaging
Neutral packaging for distributors. Private label / OEM packaging for branded resellers.
Who this is for: Wholesale distributors, private-label brands, racing teams with fleet requirements, and industrial maintenance programs with standardized specifications.
Manufacturing – Built in Our Ningbo Facility
J&W Auto Parts is a specialized manufacturer of exhaust heat insulation products, based in Ningbo, Zhejiang, China.
Our production facility handles the full process – from raw fiber inspection and weaving to cutting and packaging. Equipment includes cold heading machines, stamping presses, and supporting tooling for accessory production.
Quality approach: In-house process control across production stages. Each batch undergoes thermal and mechanical checks to maintain consistency across shipments.
Experience: We have been supplying exhaust wraps and heat insulation products to automotive aftermarket distributors, modification shops, and industrial buyers for years – with a particular focus on custom specifications and OEM partnerships.
Installation Summary
Pre-Installation
Clean exhaust pipes thoroughly using brake cleaner or acetone
Remove all surface rust with a wire brush – wrapping over rust traps moisture and accelerates corrosion
Ensure pipes are cool and dry before beginning
Wrapping Procedure
Start at the manifold or header connection point
Overlap each pass by approximately ¼ inch (6mm) for complete coverage
Maintain steady tension throughout – not too loose (reduces insulation effectiveness) and not too tight (risks tearing)
Secure both ends with stainless steel zip ties (available separately)
Post-Installation
Run the engine at idle for 15–20 minutes to heat-set the wrap
Allow the system to cool, then re-tighten all zip ties – thermal expansion and contraction can loosen initial tension
Safety Note
Wear protective gloves and long sleeves during installation. While basalt fiber causes significantly less irritation than fiberglass, it remains a fibrous material – basic protection is recommended.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the maximum temperature this wrap can withstand?
The wrap handles peak temperatures up to 1000°C. For continuous operation, we recommend referencing the 600°C – 900°C range for optimal service life. If your application requires sustained 1000°C exposure, please contact our engineering team for guidance.
Q2: Can I customize the length or thickness?
Yes – we support customization of length, thickness, and color to match your specific requirements. Contact our sales team with your specifications for a tailored quote.
Q3: Does this product contain fiberglass?
This wrap is made from basalt fiber and is distinct from conventional fiberglass wraps. If you require a 100% fiberglass-free product, please specify when ordering – we can confirm material composition for your specific batch.
