Plazmaman clamps temp rating?

[Boosted Esky]

Hi I'm having trouble finding out how much heat these clamps can handle. The only part that could deteriorate is the orings and they are advertised as "high temp" but no exact figures.  I'm wanting to use one on the compressor housing outlet which is quite close to the exhaust manifold, about 30mm away. Thanks

You're going to need heat shielding between the two (exhaust and turbo outlet).  Those o-rings will be nitrile, buna or something similar.  You can google up their temperature limits, but I think you can take it for granted that with a black surface absorbing radiation of a f**king hot manifold, they will get damn hot.  I would wrap the clamp in fibre insulation (think thin kaowool blanket) and then some reflective tape, and try to get a sheetmetal radiation shield layer in between that and the manifold with an air gap either side.

A phone call or email to plazmaman would be the best and quickest way to get a correct answer
