Product Description
Overview: PRL Motorsports' 4 - Ply Silicone Reducer Coupler offers top - notch performance. These couplers feature 4 - ply silicone with polyester reinforcement and a 70 durometer rating. They have a nominal wall thickness of 0.200” (ranging from.170” to.220”). The recommended working temperatures are from - 65°F (- 53.9°C) to 350°F (+ 176.6°C). They resist electrochemical degradation. Our standard silicone hoses aren't for pressurized oil or fuel, but we have special Fluorocarbon and Fluorosilicone liners for better chemical resistance. Contact our engineering department for details. It meets or exceeds multiple industry standards like SAE J20 R1, SAE J20 R1 H.T. Class A, etc. It has excellent ozone and UV resistance. For high - temperature applications up to 500°F, aramid reinforcement is available. Reach out to our engineering team or check the relevant website section. Commonly used in air intake, supercharger, cold - side turbo, and many other high - temperature or extreme - condition applications. It's used in aerospace, performance vehicles, marine, commercial trucks, and various industries globally.
Using the 4 - Ply Silicone Reducer Coupler is easy. Just connect it to the appropriate parts in your system, like air intake or turbo connections. Make sure the sizes match properly. When it comes to working temperatures, keep it within the recommended range of - 65°F to 350°F. Don't use it with pressurized oil or fuel unless you've chosen the special Fluorocarbon or Fluorosilicone liners. For high - temperature applications above 350°F, consider the aramid - reinforced option. To maintain it, check for any signs of wear or damage regularly. Clean it gently with a mild cleaner. If you have any questions about its use or need a custom - designed chemical - resistant hose, contact our engineering department.
