The wrap is specially designed to extend the service interval of the filter when exposed to the elements (somewhat in my case). They are made from durable polyester material containing a uniform weave. It's made to stop small dirt particles with minimal restriction to the airflow of the filter. It will not melt. It will not even get remotely warm. The filter and the wrap are located on top and in front of the radiator (where the stock snorkel was) and it will have constant airflow going around and through it. You don't see the stock plastic airbox melting from track temps under the hood, do you?
