Aluminum Pipe Intake Manifolds
Aluminum Pipe Intake Manifolds
Overview
Sanoh's aluminum pipe intake manifold* was developed to reduce vehicle weight and maximize passenger cabin space by minimizing engine size, which additionally corresponds to developing environmental protection needs.

* The intake manifold is a cylindrical component that distributes intake air to the cylinders.

Features
  1. High port freedom increases torque in the low/medium speed range.
  2. The weight of our aluminum pipe intake manifold is approximately one half that of a die-cast metal manifold
  3. Roughness of the inner surfaces of the port is drastically reduced
    • Current velocity disturbance on the boundary layer is restricted
    • A longer port can be used for high-speed range without secondary effects
  4. A high temperature furnace brazing technique is applied to the joints of this aluminum part.
    • This brazing technique enables the attachment of the power-bulb and SCV bulb without the presence of welding clots inside the port
    • Our manifold is highly credible for its airtightness and material purity (no interior extraneous material, such as weld slag)
    • Anti-corrosion brazing prevents corrosion caused by chlorine in the flux
    • Brazing material made from Aluminum and Silicon allows increased adhesion
  5. Parts of the collector are brazed in a furnace, and others are not
    • The parts that are not brazed maintain the quality of the material and strengthen the reinforcement components
