Product Description
Overview: This is the stock throttle body coupler designed for PRL Motorsports 9th Gen Civic Intake Systems. PRL Motorsports Couplers feature 4 - ply silicone with polyester reinforcement and a 70 - durometer rating. They have a nominal 0.200” wall thickness (ranging from.170” to.220”). The recommended working temperatures are from - 65°F to 350°F (- 53.9°C to + 176.6°C). These couplers are resistant to electrochemical degradation. While our standard silicone hoses aren't suitable for pressurized oil or fuel, we offer special Fluorocarbon and Fluorosilicone liners for better chemical resistance. Just contact our engineering department for details. They meet and exceed many industry standards. They have excellent ozone and UV resistance. For high - temperature applications up to 500°F, aramid reinforcement is available. You can contact our engineering team or check the '4 Ply Woven Aramid Reinforced' section on our website. Commonly used in air intake, supercharger, cold - side turbo, and intercooler connections, as well as in many other high - temperature or extreme - condition applications across aerospace, automotive, marine, and various other industries worldwide.
Using this 4 - ply silicone reducer coupler is easy. First, make sure the surfaces where you'll attach the coupler are clean and free of debris. Then, simply slide the coupler onto the appropriate parts of your system, like the air intake or supercharger. Remember, this standard coupler isn't for pressurized oil or fuel. If you need it for such applications, contact our engineering department for a special liner. When it comes to maintenance, regularly check the coupler for any signs of wear, like cracks or leaks. Keep it away from sharp objects that could damage it. If you're using it in high - temperature conditions, make sure the aramid reinforcement is suitable for your needs. And always follow the recommended working temperature range of - 65°F to 350°F (- 53.9°C to + 176.6°C) to ensure its long - term performance.
