Starter motors and starter solenoids that are heat-cooked are a thing of the past, thanks to the Lava Starter Shield by Heatshield Products.
Engineered specifically to protect these electric components mounted in the hottest part of the engine bay, the Lava Starter Shield is made using patented and proven crushed volcanic rock fiber from Heatshield Products.
This thermal barrier is ideal when there is less than 1-inch of airspace between the starter and heat sources such as headers, and it also works well when there is more airspace.
With a cool, carbon-fiber appearance, the Lava Starter Shield does not conduct electricity, unlike nearly all competitive thermal barriers.
You won't have to worry about an electrical short that could occur with exposed starter terminals coming in contact with the shield.
The Lava Starter Shield protects the starter motor and solenoid from excessive heat, which will extend the life of these products, reduce electrical amp draw while starting under hot conditions, and improve starter cranking performance when hot.
It protects the starter from constant temperatures as high as 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit and short-term temperatures as high as 2,000 degrees.
The Lava Starter Shield is easy to install and typically does not require starter removal.
Using durable and heat-resistant hook and loop fasteners, the Lava Starter Shield wraps securely around the starter and will not come off while subjected to engine and driving vibrations.
This allows for easy removal when necessary for engine servicing.
Made in the USA, the Lava Starter Shield is the best way to protect the starter motor and solenoid from damaging heat.
