About this deal
One of my favorite things about using exhaust wrap is how easily it can be installed by anyone in the comfort of their own garage.
Tapes - Pipe Lagging
The pros of using exhaust wrap on your motorcycle include decreasing your engine temperature, improving cosmetics, feet protection, and how easily it can be installed. If you’re wanting to prevent the wrap from staining the headers in case you want to take the wraps off in the future, you can try spraying your pipes with a high heat silicone coating before applying the wrap. Without exhaust wrap on the exhaust pipes, the heat inside the pipes can bake off and transfer through the side of the metal and back onto the engine. Exhaust wrap, though still hot to the touch while running, can greatly decrease your chances of getting a burn.Grip the tape with your thumb and forefinger, then pull it sharply to break the end of the tape from the spool when you’re finished wrapping. When you pick the right type of Teflon tape and you use it for its intended application, you’ll find that it works extremely well. There really is no simple answer as to whether or not someone should use exhaust wrap, but it’s good to know the pros and cons to it before deciding to use it. While you’re out riding, your feet are close to those extremely hot pipes and it’s not unheard of to burn your feet or ankles or ruin a pair of boots.
Heavy Duty PVC Pipewrap Tape - 50 mm x 33 m | Tapes - 22730
It is actually a polymer tape that adheres to fiberglass, concrete and all kinds of pipes, joints and elbows. The first thing you’ll need to do is make sure your exhaust pipes are accessible with nothing in the way. For a thicker look, you’ll need more wrap because you’re doing the binding a lot tighter and doing a lot of overlap.
Pipe wrap can be used in different shapes and sizes and is also usable both in dry and wet surfaces.
