Should motorcycle exhaust be wrapped?

The constant heat the exhaust pipes are under can sometimes discolor them which doesn’t look very good. Exhaust wrap does an excellent job at covering up those blemishes while giving your motorcycle that extra look that people like. Using wrap on your motorcycle exhaust pipes can also be a protective factor.

Should you wet exhaust wrap?

Soaking and spraying exhaust wrap can make installation easier and also reduce the amount of fibers. We recommend just spraying as you go along, not soaking. Wetting the wrap does not cause it to shrink, it makes it stick better to itself.

Does exhaust wrap improve performance?

The faster flow of exhaust dramatically improves engine performance by minimizing the pumping loss and increasing the scavenging effect: the rate at which hot exhaust gases move through the system. Insulating wrap keeps the exhaust warm, which allows the cylinder to pump with less resistance.

Does exhaust wrap cause rust?

The main reason exhaust wrap can cause premature rust is because it holds moisture. If you paint your exhaust parts with a high temperature paint and then wrap them, the rust issue will either be reduced or completely eliminated.

Does heat wrap catch fire?

Can Exhaust Wrap Catch Fire? Exhaust wrap is designed to withstand high temperatures so by nature it’s not a flammable product. If you have just wrapped your exhaust and you detect smoke coming from your engine don’t worry.

If you wrap any kind of tubing, we recommend our HT Silicone Coating to seal and protect the wrap and even the pipe you are wrapping by coating the pipe first, before you add the exhaust wrap.
