Description
In a high-performance race car, heat is the enemy of reliability. Sensitive fuel lines, oil lines, and electrical looms often run perilously close to red-hot exhaust headers and turbochargers. The Longacre 52-49750 Firebraid Insulation Sleeving provides a professional-grade defense system against extreme thermal radiation and direct flame.
Measuring 36″ in length with an 11/16″ internal diameter, this sleeving is constructed from a heavy-duty fiberglass braid coated with a thick layer of high-temperature silicone rubber. It is designed to insulate lines from continuous temperatures up to 500°F and can withstand short-term exposure to direct flame. Beyond thermal protection, the “Firebraid” jacket provides excellent abrasion resistance, ensuring your critical fluid lines don’t rub through against the chassis during a long race.
Key Features
-
Extreme Thermal Protection: Reflects and absorbs radiant heat, keeping fuel cool to prevent vapor lock and protecting oil lines from premature degradation.
-
Fire-Resistant Silicone Coating: The thick, iron-oxide red silicone jacket is self-extinguishing and provides a secondary barrier against fire, buying the driver critical time in an emergency.
-
11/16″ ID Sizing: Perfectly sized for -8 AN or -10 AN lines, as well as thick battery cables or bundled wiring harnesses.
-
Flexible & Rugged: Despite its heavy-duty construction, the sleeving remains flexible enough to navigate tight engine bays and suspension travel without kinking the line inside.
-
Professional Pit Finish: Provides the unmistakable “pro-race” look found in NASCAR and IndyCar paddocks, signaling a build that prioritizes safety and attention to detail.
