Clamps for Turbocharger Systems& Intercoolers
ZAKER V Band, TBLS (Spring T bolt),Heavy Duty Worm Drive Clamps (SLHD), Turbo Seal Clamps and Dual Bead Clamps
Xinzhihe industry has been servicing customers for over100 years and is a trusted name in industrial clamp manufacturing. Xinzhiheindustry designs, manufactures, and supplies industrial hose and pipe clampsfor turbo chargers and intercoolers used in standard automotive, Rally CarRacing, higher end racing, heavy duty trucks, heavy machinery, and othersapplications. The best clamps for turbo applications must withstand hightemperatures while maintaining precise tightness and be highly durable.
TurbochargerClamp Selection Guide fromXinzhihe industry.
- There are 5 sections to a turbocharger (TC) system: (1) from the air filter to the air inlet side of the TC compressor; (2) from the outlet of the TC compressor to the inlet side of an intercooler; (3) from the intercooler outlet to the engine intake manifold; (4) from the engine exhaust manifold to the turbine inlet on the TC; (5) from the turbine outlet on the TC to the exhaust pipe/muffler on the vehicle.
- Air is pulled into the engine combustion chamber through the air filter during the downward intake stroke of the piston. Then the air is mixed with the fuel and is compressed. When this air/fuel mixture is ignited the engine produces power.
- The resulting exhaust gas from the combustion process turns the turbine wheel in the TC.
- This then turns the compressor wheel in the TC and forces compressed air into the engine.
- As this air is compressed it becomes hotter. Compressed air from the TC can have several undesirable effects if it is hot enough, including reduced engine life and reduced ultimate engine power. In many applications an intercooler is added between the TC and engine intake manifold to reduce the compressed air temperature.
- The addition of the intercooler can significantly lower the temperature of the air charge entering the engine combustion chamber, allowing the engine to produce more power at a given level of boost pressure.
- Note that in some applications an intercooler may not be used, in which case the outlet of the TC compressor is connected directly to the engine intake manifold.
Recommended Turbocharger Clamps byApplication
- Engine exhaust manifold to the turbine inlet on the TC – This may be a bolted flat flange in which case no clamp is required. Other applications may use a round clamped flange where a ZAKER
V-Band
clamp would be the preferred choice.
- Turbine outlet on the TC – This may be a bolted flat flange with no clamp required, or a round clamped flange where a ZAKER
V-Band
clamp would be the choice.
- Air filter to the air inlet side of the TC compressor – ZAKER
T-Bolt, and
Spring
T-Bolt clamps are applicable here.
- TC compressor outlet to the intercooler (or to the intake manifold in applications without an intercooler) - ZAKER
T-Bolt, and
Spring
T-Bolt clamps are effective choices here.
- Intercooler outlet to the engine intake manifold - ZAKER
T-Bolt, and
Spring
T-Bolt clamps are good choices here.
