Can this product be used directly on the exhaust pipe without buying the wrapping?

Yes it can it will withstand temps up to I believe 1500 degrees but it depends as to how close you get to actual exhaust head. I think you should be fine using this on exhaust pipes with no problems but I do recommend at least two to three coats. Hope this helps good luck.

YES,I used it both ways,but works fine with no heat tape.It stands up to exhaust heat with no peeling.
339848
Yes, but it's basically grill paint.I used it on the bare pipe and over wrap,No complaints.
339849
Yes. But too a practically non existant benefit, not to mention it will require regular applications every six months minimum not to ruin the look of your tailpipes.

The exhaust manifold is integrated, which collects to a downpipe. So yes -- you CAN install it.

I Would not spray it on exhaust or anything that heats up. It's basiclly a semi soft robbery coating.

I don't think you will hurt anything by trying it. The thermopile and fan assembly are removable and store inside the combustion chamber. I see no reason why you could not put a hole the size of the post (less than 1/2 inch) in your chimney pipe and foil tape a seal around it. I'm not sure how much energy will be produced from the exhaust gasses. When used in the stove the Thermopile is directly in the combustion chamber the gases may not be hot enough to produce a charge. But if you are wrong pop rivet some sheet metal over the hole and seal it with heat resistant caulk.

You can, but you'll need a good exhaust system like a full hood. It kicks up a lot of smoke.

I would think so. I used this product on the ductwork in my basement; first sealing the joints with aluminum tape, then the spiral wrap held in place with the same tape. (In some runs it was tricky to get the material in place, but that may just be my situation). I also purchased a 6" wide wrap for the elbows. It has made a difference in the amount of cooling/heat that escapes from my ducts.

It's most effective if insulation is applied over the cable wrapped pipe. These heating tapes really don't get very warm because of the low wattage ( good) so applying insulation is needed in cold conditions. Fiberglass or closed cell foam can be used as insulation. If you use fiberglass you need to keep it dry. To keep everything in place I like to use a self-bonding silicone rubber "tape" because it's not bothered by cold or heat. This stuff is available as "emergency repair tape" at most auto parts stores. Otherwise, you can use conventional tape or even string, cable ties etc. Also, pay attention to keeping the heating tape firmly against the pipe for best heat transfer.

Sounds like you're assuming that heat tape somehow is physically connected to the piping. If so, that's not true. You simply wind it fairly tightly around the pipe(s) to be protected. So if your heat tape is lobg enough there's no problem using it on hot and cold pipes.

I don't use this product on pipes... So I don't know. I think this product is to prevent the heat on what I have covered with the tape. On pipes I believe is reverse, prevent heat get out from pipes to other surfaces.

no, this is not meant to be installed directly on the heat source due to the adhesive backing. This product reflects radiant heat away. you will probably need exhaust wrap some similar to HeatShield 371025.

hello,i would say that welding an exhaust pipe is best done with a wire feed welder.the exhaust pipe is rather thin and you may be able to do it w/this using lower amperage and small diameter rods like a 6013 which is pretty much an all purpose rod for steel.however,i have never tried welding exhaust and from my experience of having an exhaust installed and someone welding on it, they used a wire feed and down side is,that the heat and welding process will remove the galvinized protection at/around the weld and it will usually corrode/rust out at that point quicker.hope this helps some.

no you do not need insulation you can wrap it directly around the pipe with nothing else on it

if your pipes are the same sir, you can have somebody weld it...otherwise, you can do it yourself with exhaust clips. I have a jeep and preferred the welding

Personally I would not do it. I don't think it is good safe & judging by the smell I got while it cured on my exhaust flange I would not want to eat anything that was near it.

I would say no. The tape is intended to be used as a heat insulation on exhaust and turbo components. Does pretty well at that use.

No. It's permeable it will not seal the leak. Go to your local auto store they have many different options to fix exhaust leaks most for cheap.

Sure, but you will have to let some of the tape hang out of the wrap. Get the shortest length they sell and wrap only part of it on the pipe. For safety reasons the manufacturer asks that you not overlap the tape, so you will only get a little on the faucet, but just that little bit, if inside some insulation and other tape to keep the insulation in place, will keep it from freezing unless you live north of the Arctic Circle.
