Heat shields

What is the heat shield of the bearing housing? 

The thermal shield of a turbocharger is a crucial component that ensures engine protection from excessive heat generated during turbine operation. The turbine's heat shield is made of sheet metal, serving as a barrier that prevents heat from escaping beyond the turbine housing, thereby enhancing its efficiency. Thermal shields perform several key functions:

• Retain heat inside the turbocharger, helping to increase its operational speed.
• Reduce underhood temperature, safeguarding other components from overheating.
• Minimize turbo lag, improving throttle response.
• Diminish turbine vibration, ensuring a more stable system operation.

A quality thermal shield is crafted from a temperature-resistant material. The online store Wiatreo offers various models, including those made from nickel alloy and carbon steel, ensuring that the component remains unaffected by high temperatures without the risk of deformation or damage.

Choosing a high-quality thermal shield for the turbine is crucial for the safety of the vehicle, as without thermal protection, the engine may be susceptible to the impact of excessive heat and overheating. Wiatreo provides a wide selection of thermal shields from European manufacturers, ensuring excellent protection while eliminating any risk of ignition for turbochargers of various car models.

Thermal shield for the turbine: Key selection parameters 

On the Wiatreo website, each thermal shield corresponds to a specific turbocharger number, indicating a close connection between the turbine's design and the requirements for thermal insulation. This means that the heat shield of the bearing housing and other types of screens have unique dimensions and shapes, determining their type based on the turbine's construction. This is especially important for VNT and VGT turbines of the new generation with variable nozzle geometry, where the precise placement of thermal insulation elements significantly impacts the system's longevity.

In addition to the standard steel gasket VNT, the range includes double thermal shields for turbochargers, providing additional protection against high temperatures. Therefore, when choosing, it is essential to seek compatibility between the turbocharger model and the component and trust stores that supply high-quality auto parts.
