Exhaust Heat Sheald

[Brightonuk]

I was looking for options on a Carbon Fiber Exhaust Shield

I was thinking can I just purchase a CF tube and slide it on the silencer secure it with a couple of rivets

Will the CF stand up to the direct heat of the exhaust?

Any other suggestions?

CF is often used in motorcycle guards/shields and even parts of the actual muffler. Real CF should have no problem standing up to the heat.

 

I can't advice on making your own but I have come across one manufactured by a company. Appears to have been an extremely limited run and maybe even not for sale but worth noting that it exists.

They are on facebook. From the looks of things they do contract manufacturing of carbon fiber components for other companies.

Their facebook page also shows pictures of carbon fiber cycle wings, dash panels and noses for 7s.

How did you even find them? Reverse image search doesn't like to them. I'm impressed.

 

I think they have a Instagram as well but no luck on actually getting product out of them.

CF can be used as heat shields, but beware not all CF will work. As someone said CF is often used in motorcycle mufflers, but only the good quality ones, a lot of the cheaper mufflers use a thin steel outer case with just a CF outer skin. I think it's the quality and thickness of the CF and the resin that is used to withstand the heat. We actually liked the metal motorcycle race mufflers because they can suffer an amazing amount of damage and still function, CF not so much.

Tried reaching out to them on FB but no response so far shame as I think we could get a group buy for this item

[Nick OTeen]

I'd be interested if that could be arranged.

[Vovchandr]

I'd be down as well obviously.

I told them we will have a minimum of 10 orders so hopefully that will peak their interest
