Clamps are low quality and will break right away.

these fit just as I expected and the silicone feels very firm (not like some which are too soft and rip easily, this will last. the clamps are better than the typical style clamps, but mine arrived bent (though still functional)

Haven’t had to use this yet but have it in my pickup as a spare air to air boot. Significantly cheaper than buying from Cat and Tigercat which is what all our equipment is. The clamps are definitely cheap and lower quality but the boot itself doesn’t seem that bad. Once something blows an air to air boot I will try this one and update this review after having it on for a while to see how it holds up.

Well made and heavy duty construction. The dimensions are spot on as advertised. I like the reinforcing rings and T-bar hose clamps. Perfect for custom turbo applications.

Ever since I've learned and found out about high end reinforced hump couplers I have never gone back to what I was using before.Which was a basic silicone coupler, single ply no reinforcement and a simple basic clamp, but with those I always had problems of them coming loose or after sometime they would stretch from the heat forcing me to purchase a new one to keep things running smoothly. It's no longer the case...These high-end couplers have everything one would want in a coupler and everything is made perfectly down to the smallest detail, they are made with four ply of heat resistant material. They are reinforced and with the hump they are actually reinforced with metal rings on the outside of the coupler to hold it's shape during high intensity & high stress.They're extremely resistant to heat and perform very well with high stress and high heat, normally they use these couplers for turbos or performance needed accessories but a lot of people have started using them for intakes and other parts of the vehicle to have that high end performance where it's needed most. This coupler reducer that is a 3-in to 4 IN also comes with two t style clamps, they are some of the best clamps that are available, The ultimate option for the t clamp would be to have a resistant spring on the inside of the t clamp for a ultimate hold and never come loose sorta clamp.For this particular application the spring for the inside of the t clamp would be overkill, just the tclamp itself is able to hold.Overall this hump coupler and reducer from 3 to 4 IN is the best option available if you were needing this kind of reducer/coupler. Four ply reinforced along with steel rings and it being high heat resistant and resistant to many other things along with two t clamps is absolutely the best possible outcome you can have... Hands down!It is a tad slightly more expensive than a regular coupler but with it's high end quality, it's a guaranteethat it will be a one time purchase and it will stay with the vehicle for life, it will be performing just like it did on day one.I 1,000% recommend this reducer/coupler.

A very good quality coupler.The clamps are very high quality stainless steel and the thickness of the silicone hose material is very good.Overall, no complaints.
