Genuine Mazda 2 Exhaust Heat Shield

The Mazda 2 Exhaust Heat Shield provides critical thermal protection that keeps the blistering exhaust heat away from essential parts and refines gas flow to drive livelier. This sheet of pressed metal or ribbed sheet serves the dual purpose of acting as a reflective barrier to trap warmth within the pipes, whereby spent gases will exit the cylinder faster, fresh oxygen will reach the cylinders more rapidly and temperatures under the hood can be reduced by approximately half. Such lower bay temperatures mean safer wiring, happier sensors, and a cabin which does not unnecessarily heat soak when it gets hot in the afternoon. Regardless of the vehicle on which the shield is attached, be it a Mazda 2 of the early 2000s (the first generation) or the lighter second generation, or even the current KODO styled model, the shield can be mounted with the same intention, making it cross-generation compatible. This focused heat management is also enjoyed in the recent Mazda 2 to provide additional breathing capacity to its Skyactiv powertrain. Since the Exhaust Heat Shield only weighs a few ounces, it does not distort the lightweight balance that so many drivers cherish, but the robust construction has been known to brush off road spray and gravel. Its reliability is valued by the owners, but when they hear a rattle or a scrape, they immediately have to apply pressure on the mounting points so that the plastics or brake lines do not experience the heat. The other advantage is efficiency, since the concentrated heat promotes further combustion, which gives the subcompact a slight increase in throttle response and mileage. A smart insulating coating reflects rather than absorbs the energy, and therefore the performance remains constant even on long uphill climbs. The simplicity of the shield is an astonishing feature and it has the benefit of being of factory-grade durability with the added advantage of not containing any complex moving components, contributing to the low long-term running costs. A good Exhaust Heat Shield is then a minor but important protector of effectiveness, safety and the lively nature of the Mazda.
