Thermal barriers

[Douglas]

I have had good results with this product on light aircraft, but they also have lots of airflow that also helps dissipate. Has anyone used the kevlar heat shields from thermo-tec?

I am looking for options that have more flexibility for my bulkhead/firewall since it will be composite.

I used something similar (I think) to improve the heat rejection on my firewall. It is a woven zirconia fiber with an aluminized facing.

I installed this in my 427FE Cobra cockpit and it helps tons both for sound and heat.

Thank you guys for good responses. I like the thinness and flexibility of the barriers mentioned are great for the bulkhead, especially as they also protect from direct flames. Having the protection is always good for time to escape.

Much better options than using Embossed Aluminum Heat Shield, that product looks better suited for the clam shell.

These people have good stuff also.
