Reflect-A-Cool is a reflective material with an adhesive back. It is a combination of fibreglass and aluminised foil layer to reflect the heat away from sensitive areas. The amount of reflection, as with any reflective material depends upon the distance from the object and the mass of heat. It will reflect up to about 1500°F and protects against a continuous temperature of 600°F. This offers excellent protection where a mechanical fastener cannot be used, e.g. on a firewall, in the tub of a racing car. It can easily be cut to fit, has an excellent adhesive quality.
