  • Product Description
    ReflectShield® 1488 is an engineered solution designed to protect sensors and connectors in radiant heat environments.

    The round profile of the reflective portion offers an air gap that maximizes the level of thermal protection while the braid allows easy installation and maintenance thanks to its “pushed back” feature. ReflectShield 1488 offers the unique benefit to allow access to the connector even after end connections are made thanks to the elastic nature of the braid which returns to its original position when released. As an additional benefit, the braid also provides mechanical protection to the wire harness.

    ReflectShield 1488 is available in two configurations: the standard product has an operating temperature of 150°C while the high temperature version, ReflectShield® 1488HT, reaches +200°C.
