Keep Boost Contained with Vibrant Performance HD Clamp Assemblies
Since extreme-boosted engines hit the scene, engine builders have been searching for a better way to hold the intake charge pipes and other pressurized plumbing on their engines together. Traditional silicone couplers can blow apart as the boost climbs, and other methods like welding the pipes together are no good because the welds will crack and fail as the
engine flexes.
Enter Vibrant Performance HD Clamp Assemblies. Considerably better than other clamp designs, these modular connectors securely join two pipes together in applications making up to 800 PSI of static boost pressure. HD Clamp Assemblies are also flexible, allowing up to 12 degrees of telescopic and angular movement to withstand all the flexing and vibration your high-power mill can dish out.
The clamp assemblies are made of 6061 billet aluminum and can withstand temperatures up to 400° F. They consist of:
- One pair of aluminum weld barrels with specialized O-rings that keep even minute amounts of boost from escaping
- Hard anodized union sleeve that joins the weld barrels together to create a leak-proof seal
- Hinged, quick-release clamp that wraps around the assembly to hold it together
- Stainless steel locking pin to hold the hinged clamp closed
