Let’s talk about the HPS 3" - 3-1/2" High Temp Silicone Charge Air Cooler (CAC) Hose Coupler. If you’re diving into custom turbo setups or just need something solid for your intercooler piping, this is the piece you want in your toolkit. I’ve used this coupler for a while now, and it’s held up like a champ, even under some serious heat.
First off, this isn’t just any silicone hose. It’s made with a 4-ply aramid reinforcement, which means it can handle some pretty intense conditions—think temperatures ranging from -65°F to a scorching 500°F. That’s a wide range, making it versatile enough for marine setups and industrial applications. And you know what? It meets and exceeds SAEJ20 standards, so you can trust that it’s built to last.
One of the best features of this coupler is how it deals with misalignments. It’s designed to isolate vibrations between hose ends, which is crucial when you’re pushing your rig to the limits. Whether you’re fabricating custom piping or just need a reliable connection between your engine-mounted charge air components, this hose has got you covered.
In terms of dimensions, you’re looking at an inside diameter of 3" to 3-1/2" (76mm - 89mm) and an outside diameter of 3.39" to 3.9" (86mm - 99mm). It’s a solid 6" long, and the wall thickness is about 4.5mm, which gives you that extra durability without being overly bulky. Just a heads up, though—this silicone hose isn’t compatible with fuel or oil, so keep that in mind when you’re planning your setup.
Oh, and if you’re worried about UV and ozone damage, don’t be. This hose is resistant to those elements, which is a nice touch for anyone who’s got their vehicle parked outside or exposed to the elements.
To sum it up, if you’re looking for a reliable, high-performance hose coupler that can handle the heat and keep your engine running smoothly, the HPS Silicone Charge Air Cooler Hose is definitely worth considering.
