  1. Why OEMs Prefer Our Exhaust Wrap Over Traditional Sleeves

    May 20, 2020 8:39 pm Leave a Comment

    Whether working with anything from exhaust systems to heavy industrial equipment, exhaust wraps serve as a multipurpose insulating option. While a broad variety of thermal insulating blankets and covers remain on the market, they lack the versatility of Technicon’s Tech Shield Sleeve™ exhaust wrap.  

    Critical to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) working within a broad range of industries, well-fitted exhaust insulation ensures optimal equipment operation. This diverse range of industries includes construction, agriculture, transportation, and automotive, and so the experts at Technicon understand the importance insulating options that can easily adjust to fit a wide variety of sizes and configurations.

    Our Thermal Exhaust Wrap vs Traditional Sleeves 

    Technicon’s Tech Shield Sleeve™ thermal exhaust pipe wrap provides a broad range of advantages over traditional sleeves. Our products prove particularly useful for unique OEM equipment with easy installation, superior heat resistance, lightweight materials, better fit, and enhanced user safety.   

    Quick and Easy Installation 

    Unlike traditional sleeves, our Tech Shield Sleeve™ thermal exhaust wrap comes easy to install and fitted to suit the shape of your pipe or conduit. Simply slip the wrap around the pipe and clamp the ends to secure the cover. While traditional sleeves demand particular positioning and must be secured with numerous fasteners, Tech Shield Sleeve™ is expected to be 25-30% faster to install at minimum, according to an internal study. 

    Heat Resistance 

    Traditional fiberglass insulation products can only withstand up to 600 °F, at which point they begin to clump and deteriorate. However, Tech Shield Sleeve™ exhaust insulation wrap performs ideally for operating temperatures up to 1500 °F. With high quality insulation able to withstand these extreme temperatures, exhaust products can then undergo intensive particulate filtration in order to meet emissions requirements. Additionally, our Tech Shield Sleeve™ exhibits exceptional temperature drop and consistently passes a rigorous internal gas temperature drop test conducted by a major Fortune 500 manufacturer of engines for automotive and heavy equipment. 

    Lighter 

    Up to 40% lighter than traditional sewn insulating wraps, Tech Shield Sleeve™ offers the same coverage and protection, but lightweight construction makes our product easier to install. These lighter properties make them ideal for use in weight-sensitive equipment in the automotive and aerospace industries, where even a small amount of added weight can significantly affect operational efficiency. 

    Better Fit. Better Look. 

    Designed to fit tightly, Tech Shield Sleeve™ prevents the intrusion of debris and dust that could compromise equipment performance. Unlike sewn wraps that must be stringently designed, our one-size design accommodates a broad range of pipe diameters while still maintaining a reliable fit. The adjustable design of our exhaust heat wrap allows us to offer fewer SKUs to fit a wider range of pipes and exhaust systems. This adaptability saves OEMs time and money otherwise spent on exhaustive prototyping and custom sewing for each product design. Furthermore, our sleek, fitted design also provides a more professional, high–performance aesthetic than traditional sewn heat wraps. 

    Safer 

    Our Tech Shield Sleeve™ provides adequate coverage for any dangerously hot equipment, ensuring the safety and health of equipment operators. Unlike more traditional fiberglass products, our superior design materials make Tech Shield Sleeve™ less irritating to the skin and eyes, and our fitted design and superior temperature drop ensures a more comfortable work area.  

    Exhaust Wrap Applications 

    OEM equipment often presents challenges with unusually shaped pipes, valves, and other components which require innovative insulation solutions. Nevertheless, Technicon’s knowledgeable experts can help you find the perfect heat wrap for your exhaust system. We specialize in the design and manufacture of thermal insulation wraps for numerous industries, including:
