  Insulator, Insulator Hood

• Description:

  This Genuine Ford hood insulator is the molded pad that mounts to the underside of the hood, providing thermal and acoustic insulation that reflects engine heat away from the hood's painted outer surface and helps dampen underhood noise. It fits 2023 through 2025 Ford F-250 Super Duty and F-350 Super Duty trucks with the 6.7L Power Stroke diesel, 6.8L gas, 6.8L flex-fuel, or 7.3L gas V8. Over time the original insulator can sag, tear away from its retainers, become oil-soaked, or crumble and hang down against the engine, and a buyer searching for this part is typically dealing with a drooping or deteriorated pad, scorched hood paint from lost heat protection, or missing insulation after a repair. Replacing it protects the hood's finish from heat damage, restores the intended sound-deadening, and returns a clean underhood appearance. The Ford catalog name is Insulator Hood, the hood insulation pad. It is retained by push-in clips or pins around the perimeter of the hood inner panel. Installation involves removing the old pins and insulator, cleaning the hood inner surface, positioning the new pad to the factory openings, and seating the retainers so the pad lies flat without sagging into the engine bay. Verify the hood style and engine application before ordering so the insulator matches the correct cutouts and retention pattern. Genuine Ford insulation is molded to the hood contour so it fits the original clip locations and covers the panel as designed.
