  • Product Description
    ConvoShield® AL is a reflective convolute sleeve designed to provide thermal protection for components in radiant heat environments. Composed of a high temperature nylon 4,6 polymer base substrate and a highly reflective coating, ConvoShield AL provides protection for wires, cables and hoses in applications that have radiant heat source temperatures as high as +538ºC (+1000ºF).

    The reflective surface is extremely resistant to automotive fluids and may be classed as insulative against 12 volt automotive currents. Because of its unique blend of thermal and insulative properties, as well as its aesthetic appearance, it is ideal for applications such as battery cables and alternator wiring harnesses.
