Vibrant Performance Aramid Reinforced Charge Air Cooler Transition Hose Coupler 4.00in x 3.00in ID - Universal
Vibrant Performance Aramid Reinforced Charge Air Cooler Hose Couplers connect 4.00 inch to 3.00 inch piping in custom turbo and supercharger intercooler systems on performance vehicles. These 3 inch long transition couplers compensate for minor misalignment and isolate vibration for smoother airflow. Stainless steel rings maintain shape under boost pressures while aramid layers support temperatures from -75 Degrees F to 392 Degrees F.
Key Features
- Aramid Reinforcement: Multi-layer high temperature resistant fabric between silicone enables reliable operation from -75 Degrees F to 392 Degrees F (-60 Degrees C to 200 Degrees C)
- Stainless Steel Rings: Embedded rings resist expansion and ballooning during high pressure boost conditions
- Vibration Isolation: Flexible design absorbs engine vibration and corrects minor piping misalignment for leak-free connections
- Transition Sizing: Precise 4.00in x 3.00in inner diameter suits common charge air cooler piping reductions in intake systems
- Versatile Service: Rated for hot side cold side air water and coolant applications in performance turbo setups
Product Notes
