That’s a Wrap
DEI’s EXO series extreme use exhaust and pipe wrap offers protection and added durability to pipes and headers that can meet the needs of off-road, dirt track or desert racing. This thermal wrap is perfect for vehicles with repeated exposure to abrasion and high-impact road or trail conditions. Constructed of high-temperature glass fiber, encased in a 304 grade stainless steel exoskeleton, this wrap features patented Air Gap technology, an insulating air barrier to keep direct contact of the glass fiber wrap off of the hot surface of the pipe. Offered in both tan and black in 1.5-inch width and 10- and 20-foot lengths, this wrap makes installation easier with an exoskeleton that locks in upon overlap for a secure fit.
