Benefits

  • No organic components
  • VW TL 52498-D compliant
  • No steel wool needed for exhaust protection
  • System remains stable even under the highest mechanical loads and exhaust gas pressure

The net for extra protection.

iTEX net is doubly impressive. This innovative insulation solution provides both thermal insulation and acoustic absorption in the exhaust system. The net made of the filling material also offers additional exhaust protection – another important benefit over conventional insulation solutions.

In developing iTEX net the environment was a key criterion, so neither the filling nor the outer net contain any organic binding agents or materials. The material can be produced with any continuous fiber (E glass, ECR glass, or S glass). It’s also low-emission and recyclable, ensuring compliance with the increasingly tough exhaust emission standards.
