Thermashield® Connector Shield
High Heat Protection for Your Connections
Techflex® ThermaShield® Connector Shield
The Techflex® Connector Shield is the specially designed to protect your connectors from all types of heat. Engine and exhaust temperatures on today’s motors can quickly exceed the design limits of plastic connector bodies. Our state of the art shield slides easily over plugs or receptacles and can cut surface heat to a fraction of the unprotected temperatures. The semi rigid design allows the shield to maintain its shape maximizing its ability to insulate your connections. The multi-layer composite system in our heat shield combats the effects of radiant heat with the aluminum skin and convective heat with thick insulation layers. If you have connections in the line of fire Techflex® connector shields are for you.

About The ThermaShield® Family of Products
ThermaShield® creates a thermal buffer between your wires, hoses and cables and the high temperature environments surrounding them. ThermaShield® is engineered by laminating an aluminized metallic heat shield to a layer of strong, tightly braided fiberglass insulation. This system provides superior protection from radiant heat by reflecting it away from sensitive electronics, wiring and hoses.
ThermaShield® Convoluted – This pre-rounded sleeve, comes in 4 ft sticks, and is easy to slip over wires or hoses, and bend in any direction needed. The seamless construction provides full coverage and protection, and the flexible sleeving cuts easily with scissors.
ThermaShield® Tube – This tube is very flexible & will endure temperatures up to 1,200°F without delaminating, turning brittle or suffering adhesive failure. It is ideal in any situation where protection from radiant heat is a primary concern, and long length of flexible material are required.
ThermaShield® Wrap – When component disassembly isn’t an option, ThermaShield® Wrap is the solution. Designed to fit securely around existing assemblies and hard to reach components, the flat material is joined along the edge with a strip of permanent, high temperature adhesive. The aggressive bonding agent will securely adhere anywhere along the width of the material, affording maximum protection and allowing a snug fit around odd-shaped connectors and terminations.
ThermaShield® Flat – An aluminum laminated fiberglass sheet with a full coating of permanent, high temperature adhesive, applies directly to any clean surface. Ideal solution for protecting delicate electronic component boxes mounted close to engines or other heat sources. When applied, the aluminum laminate reflects heat away and the insulating fiberglass backing protects the fragile contents from thermal damage and failure.
ThermaShield® Tape – A high temperature and EMI/RDI shielding tape that exhibits outstanding heat reflectivity and thermal stability at extremely high temperatures for short periods of time. The tape is constructed of 1 mil aluminum foil, laminated on 2 mil glass cloth with silicone adhesive.
ThermaShield® Connector Shield – The Techflex® Connector Shield is specially designed to protect your connectors from all types of heat. Engine and exhaust temperatures on today’s motors can quickly exceed the design limits of plastic connector bodies.
T6 ThermaShield® - One of the most popular items in the ThermaShield® line of aluminized fiberglass products, T6, is designed for ease of installation when component disassembly isn’t practical. Just wrap the pre-formed, split flexible tube around any component and seal the sides with the high temperature adhesive strip to provide protection from hot pipes and engine components.
