Silicone Straight Hose

Technical Specifications:

• Brand: Vibrant Performance

• Part Number (MPN): 2716

• Product Type: Straight Silicone Sleeve Coupler

• Inside Diameter (I.D.): 3.50"

• Length: 3.00" (76.2mm)

• Construction: 4-Ply Aramid (Kevlar) Reinforced Silicone (0.180" Wall Thickness)

• Color: Gloss Black

Performance & Fitment Features:

• High-Boost & Thermal Resistance: Engineered specifically for custom turbocharger compressor housings, intercooler piping, and custom air intake assemblies. Rated to withstand extreme continuous operating temperatures from -65°F to 350°F without degrading.

• Pressure Rating: Features a burst strength of over 40 PSI, ensuring it will not swell or expand under heavy-duty forced induction conditions. Meets or exceeds SAE J20 specifications.

• CRITICAL INSTALLATION WARNING (CLAMP SELECTION): This heavy-duty silicone requires high-torque T-Bolt Clamps for safe installation. Using standard automotive worm-gear clamps will result in the clamp slicing through the Aramid reinforcement under boost pressure, causing catastrophic pipe blowouts and potential engine detonation due to sudden unmetered air leaks.

• CRITICAL CHEMICAL WARNING (NO OIL / NO FUEL): This coupler is manufactured from premium silicone and is suitable for AIR, WATER, AND COOLANT SERVICE ONLY. Do NOT use this coupler for fuel lines, oil drain/feed lines, or crankcase ventilation (PCV) systems carrying heavy oil vapors. Hydrocarbons will chemically dissolve silicone, leading to catastrophic rupture.

Federal Emissions Compliance:

• Emissions Code: 5 (Replacement Part)

• Status: This is a physical plumbing component that does not actively alter factory emissions control equipment. It is strictly legal for sale, installation, and street use in all 50 US states, including California. No CARB Executive Order (EO) is required.
