aFe BladeRunner Intercooler Couplings & Clamps Kit

2013–2018 Ram 2500 & 3500 Diesel 6.7L

Part #: 46-20130A

Overview

The aFe BladeRunner Intercooler Couplings & Clamps Kit is engineered specifically for 2013–2018 Ram 2500 and 3500 models equipped with the 6.7L Cummins diesel engine. Designed to complement aFe intercooler tubes, this kit ensures a secure and reliable connection between intercooler components. Ideal for diesel truck enthusiasts seeking durability and performance, these couplings accommodate the demanding conditions of high-boost applications while maintaining system integrity.

By providing a flexible yet robust connection, the kit helps prevent leaks and disconnections caused by engine movement, vibration, and thermal expansion. This makes it an essential upgrade for anyone installing or maintaining aFe BladeRunner intercooler systems on their Ram diesel truck.

Key Features

Built to meet the rigorous demands of diesel performance applications, the aFe BladeRunner Intercooler Couplings & Clamps Kit offers the following key features:

• Constructed from 5-ply reinforced silicone for superior strength and durability
• Meets or exceeds SAE J20 standards for high-temperature resistance
• Hump coupler design allows for expansion, movement, and vibration absorption between hard pipes
• Reduces risk of intercooler tube disconnection or damage under extreme conditions
• Specifically designed to fit aFe intercooler tubes, ensuring perfect compatibility
• Includes heavy-duty clamps for secure, leak-free connections
• Resistant to oil, coolant, and other automotive fluids
• Maintains optimal airflow for consistent intercooler performance

Construction & Design

The couplings are crafted from reinforced silicone material with five layers of reinforcement, providing exceptional resistance to heat, pressure, and mechanical stress. This multi-ply construction ensures longevity even in harsh under-hood environments where temperatures and vibrations are elevated. The hump design is engineered to flex and absorb movement between rigid intercooler tubes, preventing cracks or breaks that can occur with rigid connections.

Each coupling is precision-molded to fit seamlessly with aFe BladeRunner intercooler tubes, maintaining a tight seal and optimal airflow. The included clamps are made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, ensuring a secure hold and long-lasting performance.

Installation & Fitment

Installation of the aFe BladeRunner Intercooler Couplings & Clamps Kit is straightforward when paired with aFe intercooler tubes on 2013–2018 Ram 2500 and 3500 6.7L diesel trucks. The flexible silicone couplers accommodate slight variations in tube alignment and movement, simplifying the assembly process. No special modifications are required, but it is recommended to inspect all connections for proper fit and torque clamps to manufacturer specifications to ensure leak-free operation.
