Heat Shield (V2) - Volvo Penta (21865846)

When a vehicle is running, the term "heat shield" refers to plates that insulate elements of the exhaust system, which consistently creates high temperatures. By keeping the exhaust system from heating up the floorboards and other surrounding vehicle components, the Volvo Penta Heat Shield (V2) (21865846) prevents tall grass or other flammable substances that may come into touch with the underneath of a vehicle from incendiary temperatures. Heat shields are used on most engines to protect components and bodywork from heat damage due to the huge amounts of heat produced by internal combustion engines. Good heat shields can boost performance by lowering under-bonnet temperatures and, as a result, lowering the intake temperature.

Allowing your vehicle to be exposed to extreme heat for an extended period of time can cause it to break down. Heat exposure over time can weaken your wiring and create unnecessary damage to your vehicle, costing you time and money. Heat shields from Volvo Penta protect certain components of your vehicle, ensuring that each component is fully protected.

Key Features:

• Lowering underhood temperatures.

• Improves exhaust scavenging.
