LAVA Battery Heat Shield Wrap
LAVA Battery Heat Shield Wrap is a high-temperature battery heat shield wrap engineered to reduce radiant engine-bay heat and heat soak around battery areas. Made from naturally acid-resistant volcanic rock (lava) fiber, this car battery heat shield helps extend battery life, improve starting reliability, and protect nearby components in high-heat automotive environments.

How to extend the life of your car battery
Excessive engine-bay heat is a leading cause of premature battery aging—especially in high-performance vehicles with turbochargers, superchargers, or tight packaging that increases heat soak. A battery heat shield helps protect the battery from thermal stress by shielding radiant heat away from the battery zone and surrounding components.
By reducing heat exposure, an automotive battery heat shield can support longer battery service life and help prevent unexpected failures—delivering more reliable starts and more consistent power for daily drivers, street builds, and track applications.
What is LAVA Battery Heat Shield Wrap?
LAVA Battery Heat Shield Wrap is a durable heat shield for battery protection made from volcanic rock (lava) fiber with natural acid resistance. It is designed for battery areas exposed to radiant heat from hot components and airflow paths. Unlike thin reflective-only barriers, the lava fiber structure is positioned for long-term stability under vibration and thermal cycling.
Key benefits
- Protects from excessive engine-bay heat for improved reliability
- Constructed from naturally acid-resistant volcanic rock fiber for harsh battery environments
- Helps extend battery life by reducing heat-related wear and heat soak
- Clean, professional installation for a neat appearance in the battery zone
- Outlasts basic reflective heat shielding materials in vibration- and heat-cycle-heavy use
Typical applications
- Car battery heat shield for underhood battery zones near turbo/manifold or exhaust routing heat
- Automotive battery heat shield for high-performance street builds and tight engine bays
- Battery heat shield wrap for projects needing durable coverage rather than thin films
- EV battery heat shield concept for localized protection near battery-adjacent heat sources (application-dependent)
Installation notes (best practices)
- For best results, maintain a stable air gap where possible and avoid direct contact with extreme hot components.
- Secure the wrap to prevent migration under vibration; validate retention after heat cycles.
- If the nearby heat source is extremely hot (manifold/downpipe/catalyst), reduce heat at the source first, then add a battery heat shield wrap for adjacent protection.
Battery compatibility
Compatible with common battery types including lead-acid, AGM, gel, and lithium systems. For accurate sizing and fitment, provide battery dimensions and photos of the installation area.

FAQ
What is a battery heat shield wrap used for?
A battery heat shield wrap reduces radiant heat exposure and heat soak around the battery area, helping improve reliability and extend battery life in high-heat engine bays.
Why use lava fiber instead of basic reflective shielding?
Lava fiber provides a durable thermal barrier with natural acid resistance and better long-term stability under vibration and thermal cycling versus thin reflective-only films.
Is this a car battery heat shield or an EV battery heat shield?
It is mainly used as a car battery heat shield in underhood zones. It can also support EV projects for localized shielding near battery-adjacent heat sources, depending on layout and clearance.
Will it fit all batteries?
It is compatible with common battery types (lead-acid, AGM, gel, lithium). For best results, provide battery dimensions and surrounding clearance for proper sizing.
Does a battery heat shield extend battery life?
Excess heat accelerates aging for many battery chemistries. Reducing heat exposure can help slow heat-related wear and improve overall reliability.
