Heat Shields
Heat shields produced from aluminium and aluminized steel, in embossed or smooth material, or double layer with insulation material. The primary requirement of a heat shield is for it to be highly reflective towards the heat source in order to repel as much infrared away from the vehicle structure as possible. The construction of a heat shield is also important as the convection of the surrounding air can be exploited for cooling the heat shield as much as possible. Heat shields protect the passenger compartment, petrol tank and electrical cabling.
