Silicon Foam/Tape (heat resistant)

[James]

I need to get my hands on some heat-resistant self adhesive tape/foam to go on the inside of my fairing.
Anyone know where I might score some - I only need about a 10cm x 2cm strip.
I have tried Bunnings but to no avail.
Would Repco/Autopro stock something like this?

Anyone bought some before?

[Pymm]

coles in the cross sells it...

dick smith sells it, failing that try supercheap?

[Kat00]

Yes, I need some some of that too........I think...

Is it the silver reflective foil your talking about? I need to replace mine, last time I bought it was from Actions and had to wait 4 weeks for it and it was pretty expensive.

Surely we can buy it in sheets and cut it to size??????

:ayyy: Thanks - will try those places on Saturday. Strange that Coles in the Cross has it :confused1:

[Kat00]

Lmfao

[Captain]

I'd try somewhere like Repco, probably a sheet of under-bonnet insulation would do the trick (self adhesive).
This stuff would do it too, but it's expensive: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/DYNAMAT-DYNALINER-11103-ALL-NEW-ultra-light-weight_W0QQitemZ350234116473QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAU_ Car_Parts_Accessories?hash=item518b948179&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

Ive got about 20m of it in my garage, Im pretty sure its what your after, James, If you want some your more than welcome to a couple of metres, you too Kat00, I bought it to tape up my wheels for powder coating. You can get it at heatcraft but cost $50 a roll.

[Kat00]

Heatcraft......Thanks mate :ayyy:

that silver duct tape type of stuff with the peel off backing? we used it for taping the joins on steam pipe lagging
i got a few rolls of that you guys are welcome too
i have no use for it
gotta check kids havent pissed off with it first

[lilninja]

Dude seriously dont go paying $50 for a role, grab some of mine. Ill drop some out to Vinnie on Sat fo ya.

[lilninja]

yeah the stuff Ive gots like a metal tape. i think the material stuff is more like whats on the bike OEM.

[wade193]

Like an aluminium tape? I have half a roll but can't remember where i got it from. I think from Qantas shhhhh. Heatcraft is a wholesaler so if your a tradie you can get it cheaper. Didn't expect my mum's work to get a mention haha.

That's pretty much the stuff I was told to get Captain - it was described as silicone foam to me.
I'll see if I can find some of this first if not I'll take lilninja or Muzz up on the kind offer for some of that silver heat tape :ayyy:

[zRoYz]

The foil tape (aluminum) from heatcraft isn't made to withstand extreme heat it is simply insulation duct tape. I would think you guys want heat resistant tape for high temps like panels close to exhaust.

Yep it's to go between muffler and lower cowl - so I'll try Repco and Supercheap first up. Any other suggestions?

[Stu23]

Im after something to attach to under fuel tank to reduce fuel temps, was looking at self adhesive silver backed foam but thought it may be too thick, whats this adhesive silver tape stuff ??

[zRoYz]

Rocket Industries sell the exhaust rapping insulation they might sell what your after or know who does.

there yas go

[jasonbw]

Roy is right, if you want the stuff that works then ignore supercheap/repco. Google Thermo-tec... they're the worlds best in this stuff.

Speak to Jason from Rocket Industries:

or this

[WET4URacing]

aircon dudes use it. i get mine from a mate who uses it at work.

[Kat00]

Yeah, its the heat resistant foil I need,

Thanks for the tips on where to get the stuff.

[Chaser]

I just bought the last 2 pieces from RB Racing Taren Point. They had the self adhesive pad version (foil) they use in their race bikes. $13ea. About the same size as the palm of your hand.

[Captain]

Problem with the air cond stuff, it's usually too thick for this purpose ... and yes, not designed for the high temps (although it will probably do the job).
Another option, better suited to high temps is to go to a marine shop (eg whitworths) and buy some engine room liner. But again, it's too thick IMO.

This one sounds like the best, for sure: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Daos-Place-exhaust-muffler-heat-shield-mat-stick-on_W0QQitemZ400064474297QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAU_Moto rcycle_Parts_Accessories?hash=item5d25b36cb9&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

[lilninja]

The stuff Ive got is probably a quarter of a mil thick it basicly liiks lik aluminium foil but thicker, with a brown paper backing that you peel off.

[Kat00]

How wide is that Damo?
I have to be a bit careful with what I use, got a Arata full system on it and there is bugger all clearence between the mid pipe and the faring, the stock stuff I put on it is starting to cook and the faring has melted, hard to see but it's definately melted. If I put something on that is thick or not rated for the purpose it's likely to ignite.
