Description
Silicone hump hose coupler designed to join 2.75-inch piping while providing increased flexibility and improved durability for intake and intercooler piping applications.
This Mishimoto 2.75 Inch Silicone Hump Hose Coupler Blue is engineered to accommodate movement and misalignment between connected pipes, with the hump section flexing to allow freedom of movement under load and reduce stress at clamp points.
- Application versatility: Suitable for building intake and intercooler piping where a flexible connection is required between sections.
- Hump design: The in-hump section flexes to absorb movement, helping maintain a sealed connection when piping shifts or vibrates.
- Material: Silicone construction provides resistance to typical under-hood conditions and preserves connection integrity where rigid couplers would fatigue.
- Color option: Supplied in blue; also available in black, red, and purple for visual matching or component identification.
- Brand reliability: Manufactured by Mishimoto, a supplier known for performance cooling and silicone hose components.
Why this matters: Flexible couplers reduce concentration of mechanical stress at joints, decreasing the likelihood of leaks or disconnection during engine movement. Using a purpose-designed silicone hump coupler keeps intercooler and intake piping sealed while allowing the system to tolerate vibration and thermal expansion.
Typical uses: Intake piping joins, intercooler piping transitions, and any application requiring a short flexible section between 2.75-inch diameter pipes.
