Funk Motorsport Titanium Lava Rock Exhaust Wrap (15m) – High-Temperature Basalt Heat Wrap

Funk Motorsport Titanium Lava Rock Exhaust Wrap – Premium Heat Management for Performance Builds

How This Exhaust Wrap Improves Thermal Control

The Funk Motorsport Titanium Lava Rock Exhaust Wrap (15m) is engineered to provide advanced heat management for high-performance vehicles. By wrapping exhaust manifolds, headers, or downpipes, this basalt fibre wrap creates a robust thermal barrier that keeps exhaust gases hotter as they exit the engine. This helps maintain exhaust gas velocity, supports turbocharger response in forced-induction setups, and reduces the amount of radiant heat entering the engine bay.

Practical Use Cases and Typical Applications

This exhaust wrap is designed for demanding motorsport, off-road, and high-power road vehicles where controlling heat is critical. It is suitable for:

• Exhaust manifolds and headers
• Turbocharger downpipes
• Full exhaust systems
• Track, drift, rally, and off-road builds
• High-performance street cars

By insulating exhaust components, the wrap protects nearby wiring, sensors, intake systems, and brake reservoirs from heat soak and excessive temperatures, helping to maintain reliability and performance in harsh environments.

Key Benefits of Funk Motorsport Basalt Lava Rock Exhaust Wrap

• Improves exhaust gas flow by retaining higher temperatures within the exhaust system
• Supports faster turbo spool and improved response in turbocharged applications
• Reduces engine bay temperatures, safeguarding sensitive components
• Constructed from basalt lava rock fibres for superior durability compared to traditional fibreglass wraps
• Flexible and easy to install, even on tight manifold runners
• Suitable for motorsport, off-road, and performance road vehicles

Material and Construction Details

Funk Motorsport’s titanium exhaust wrap is manufactured from basalt lava rock fibres, offering a ceramic-style weave that withstands extreme heat and repeated thermal cycling. Unlike conventional fibreglass wraps, this material remains flexible during installation and resists brittleness over time, making it ideal for challenging environments and high-temperature applications.

Installation and Usage Guidance

The 15-metre roll is available in 25 mm (1 inch) and 50 mm (2 inch) widths, providing options for both tight bends and larger exhaust sections. The wrap includes six metal locking ties for secure installation. Some installers prefer to dampen the wrap before fitting to aid flexibility and achieve a tighter fit, but this is optional and depends on installer preference.

Properly installed, this exhaust wrap delivers lasting protection and performance benefits for both naturally aspirated and turbocharged engines. It is widely used in motorsport and demanding performance builds where heat management is essential.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Funk Motorsport Titanium Lava Rock Exhaust Wrap made from?

This wrap is constructed from basalt lava rock fibres, not titanium metal. The basalt fibres provide enhanced heat resistance and durability while remaining flexible for installation.

How much heat can this exhaust wrap handle?

The wrap is rated for up to 980°C continuous heat and up to 1350°C for intermittent exposure, making it suitable for motorsport and high-performance applications.

Does using exhaust wrap improve vehicle performance?

While exhaust wrap primarily manages heat, it also helps maintain exhaust gas velocity and can support improved turbo response in forced-induction vehicles.

Will this wrap reduce engine bay temperatures?

Yes, insulating exhaust components with this wrap significantly reduces radiant heat in the engine bay, protecting sensitive systems and improving overall reliability.

Is this wrap suitable for turbocharged vehicles?

Absolutely. It is widely used on turbo manifolds, downpipes, and systems where controlling exhaust heat is crucial for performance and component protection.

Do I need to soak the wrap before installation?

Soaking is optional. Some installers prefer to dampen the wrap for easier handling, but it can be installed dry based on personal preference and application.
