Product description and what’s included
<div class="pdp-buying-guide"> <h2>Choose The Right Silicone Fibreglass Heat Sleeve For Your Hose Or Wiring</h2> <p>The Exoracing silicone fibreglass high temperature heat sleeve is made to protect hoses, wiring looms, brake lines, fuel lines, oil lines and coolant lines from engine bay heat. It uses a heat-treated fibreglass inner with a silicone outer layer, giving strong insulation, abrasion protection and a clean black finish for fast-road, track, drift and turbocharged builds.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Best for:</strong> hoses, cables, wiring looms and lines that need direct heat protection</li> <li><strong>Temperature rating:</strong> 260°C continuous and 1200°C short-term exposure</li> <li><strong>Material:</strong> heat-treated fibreglass weave with silicone outer coating</li> <li><strong>Available ID sizes:</strong> 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 15mm, 20mm, 25mm and 30mm</li> <li><strong>Supplied length:</strong> 0.5m, with continuous lengths available up to 20m</li> <li><strong>Included:</strong> silicone fibreglass heat sleeve, 2 Exoracing heat shrink tags and Exoracing lifetime warranty</li> </ul> <p><strong>Sizing:</strong> measure the outside diameter of the hose, cable or loom you want to protect, then choose the closest sleeve ID size above that measurement. If the part has a tight bend, bulky fitting or awkward route, go one size larger. For a full measuring guide, see our <a href="https://exoracing.co.uk/blog/heat-sleeve-size-chart-what-size-do-you-need/">heat sleeve size chart</a>.</p> </div> <h2>Why Use Silicone Fibreglass Heat Sleeve?</h2> <p>Extreme engine bay temperatures can make hoses go brittle, dry out wiring insulation and shorten the life of oil, coolant, brake and fuel lines. This is especially common around turbochargers, exhaust manifolds, downpipes and tight engine bays where there is very little airflow.</p> <p>By sliding a silicone fibreglass heat sleeve over the vulnerable part, you add a dedicated insulation layer between the heat source and the component you need to protect. It helps reduce heat exposure, protects against rubbing, and gives the engine bay a tidy motorsport-style finish.</p> <p>This sleeve is ideal for protecting turbo oil and water lines, fuel hoses, brake lines, coolant hoses, vacuum lines, battery cable, sensor wiring and wiring looms. If the main heat source is the turbo itself, pair the sleeve with an <a href="https://exoracing.co.uk/exoracing-turbo-blanket-v3/">Exoracing turbo blanket</a> to reduce radiant heat at the source as well as protecting the nearby lines.</p> <p>The sleeve has a useful amount of stretch, so it can be pushed over many installed fittings and shaped around common engine bay routes. If you need to protect a hose or loom that cannot be disconnected, use our <a href="https://exoracing.co.uk/exoracing-gold-and-silver-velcro-heat-sleeve-0-5m/">Exoracing Velcro heat sleeve</a> instead, as it wraps around parts in place.</p> <h2>Which heat protection do I need?</h2> <div class="exo-v2-related-source-grid"> <div class="exo-v2-related-source-card is-current"><img src="https://cdn11.bigcommerce.com/s-2qhgaelfmo/products/10584/images/85973/Exoracing_silicone_heat_sleeve_main__52031.1778768056.386.513.jpg?c=2" alt="Exoracing silicone fibreglass heat sleeve" width="386" height="513" /> <span class="exo-v2-related-source-eyebrow">Hoses, wiring and fluid lines</span> <h3 class="exo-v2-related-source-title">Silicone Fibreglass Heat Sleeve</h3> <p class="exo-v2-related-source-text">Slide-over insulation for hoses, wiring and fluid lines exposed to engine-bay heat and abrasion.</p> <a href="#exo-v2-buy">Choose a size</a></div> <div class="exo-v2-related-source-card"><img src="https://cdn11.bigcommerce.com/s-2qhgaelfmo/products/9018/images/84799/exoracing-gold-velcro-sleeving-1__38870.1729182561.386.513.JPG?c=2" alt="Exoracing gold Velcro heat sleeve" width="386" height="513" /> <span class="exo-v2-related-source-eyebrow">Already-installed routes</span> <h3 class="exo-v2-related-source-title">Gold and Silver Velcro Heat Sleeve</h3> <p class="exo-v2-related-source-text">Wrap-around heat protection where a hose, cable or loom cannot be disconnected for slide-on sleeving.</p> <a href="https://exoracing.co.uk/exoracing-gold-and-silver-velcro-heat-sleeve-0-5m/">View Velcro heat sleeve</a></div> <div class="exo-v2-related-source-card is-contain"><img src="https://cdn11.bigcommerce.com/s-2qhgaelfmo/products/4362/images/84689/IMG_9634__80833.1778857597.386.513.JPG?c=2" alt="Exoracing Turbo Blanket V3" width="386" height="513" /> <span class="exo-v2-related-source-eyebrow">Turbocharger turbine housing</span> <h3 class="exo-v2-related-source-title">Exoracing Turbo Blanket V3</h3> <p class="exo-v2-related-source-text">Contains heat at the turbine housing before it reaches nearby hoses, wiring and engine-bay surfaces.</p> <a href="https://exoracing.co.uk/exoracing-turbo-blanket-v3/">View turbo blanket</a></div> <div class="exo-v2-related-source-card is-reflect"><img src="https://cdn11.bigcommerce.com/s-2qhgaelfmo/products/474/images/84795/exoracing-gold-reflective-sheeting-image-1__82125.1778768459.386.513.jpg?c=2" alt="Exoracing gold and silver heat reflective sheet" width="386" height="513" /> <span class="exo-v2-related-source-eyebrow">Panels and nearby surfaces</span> <h3 class="exo-v2-related-source-title">Gold and Silver Heat Reflective Sheet</h3> <p class="exo-v2-related-source-text">Reflects radiant heat away from compatible panels and surfaces around the heat source.</p> <a href="https://exoracing.co.uk/exoracing-gold-and-silver-heat-reflective-sheet-1m-x-1-2m/">View reflective sheet</a></div> </div> <h2>Purchase Includes</h2> <ul> <li>1 x Exoracing silicone fibreglass high-temperature heat sleeve</li> <li>2 x Exoracing heat shrink tags</li> <li>1 x Exoracing lifetime warranty</li> </ul> <h2>Features</h2> <ul> <li>Protects hoses, lines, cables and wiring from heat damage</li> <li>Suitable for turbo, exhaust, engine bay and motorsport use</li> <li>260°C continuous temperature rating</li> <li>1200°C short-term exposure rating</li> <li>Heat-treated fibreglass inner with silicone outer coating</li> <li>Self-extinguishing construction</li> <li>Helps protect against rubbing and abrasion</li> <li>Stretches to help fit over many installed hose fittings</li> <li>Can be cut to length with sharp scissors</li> <li>Available in 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 15mm, 20mm, 25mm and 30mm ID sizes</li> <li>Available in continuous lengths up to 20m</li> <li>Includes Exoracing lifetime warranty</li> </ul> <h2>Silicone Fibreglass Heat Sleeve Installation Guide</h2> <div style="position: relative; width: 100%; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; background: #000;"><iframe style="position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; border: 0;" title="Exoracing silicone fibreglass heat sleeve installation guide" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/xZwrSQHYLvc?start=0" width="300" height="150" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></div> <ol> <li>Measure the outside diameter of the hose, cable, line or loom you want to protect.</li> <li>Choose the closest sleeve ID above that measurement.

For example, if the hose measures around 14mm OD, choose 15mm ID unless the route is tight, in which case 20mm may be easier to fit. Use our <a href="https://exoracing.co.uk/blog/heat-sleeve-size-chart-what-size-do-you-need/">heat sleeve size chart</a> if you are unsure.</p> <h3>Can this sleeve go over fittings?</h3> <p>In many cases, yes. Silicone fibreglass heat sleeve has some stretch, so it can be pushed over many hose ends and fittings. If the fitting is too large or the part cannot be removed, use a <a href="https://exoracing.co.uk/exoracing-gold-and-silver-velcro-heat-sleeve-0-5m/">Velcro heat sleeve</a> instead.</p> <h3>Is this better than a reflective sleeve?</h3> <p>It depends on the job. Silicone fibreglass sleeve is a strong choice for direct insulation and abrasion protection around hoses, wiring and lines. Reflective sewn or Velcro sleeve is better when the main issue is radiant heat, and you want a gold or silver heat-reflective outer surface.</p> <h3>Can I cut it to length?</h3> <p>Yes. Cut the sleeve with sharp scissors, then secure the ends with the supplied heat shrink tags, wire or stainless cable ties if required.</p> <h3>Does it include a warranty?</h3> <p>Yes. This product includes the Exoracing lifetime warranty.</p> <h2>Notes</h2> <ul> <li>Choose the next size up for tight bends, bulky fittings or awkward routing.</li> <li>Keep the sleeve clear of belts, pulleys, sharp edges and moving parts.</li> <li>For direct exhaust pipe protection, use an exhaust wrap rather than a sleeve.</li> <li>If you are not sure which heat-management product you need, read our <a href="https://exoracing.co.uk/blog/heat-shield-vs-exhaust-wrap-vs-heat-tape-what-to-use/">heat shield vs exhaust wrap vs heat tape guide</a>.</li> </ul>
