Crafted from premium 6061 aluminum, this tube combines heat resistance with reliable strength to support a range of custom configurations. The brushed surface adds a refined look while keeping surface integrity, so the pipe stays visually consistent in both engine bays and workshop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eVersatile design for your build\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis straight tube is specified with a 4-inch (102 mm) outside diameter and an 11.8-inch (300 mm) length. Wall thickness is 0.078 inches (2 mm), delivering a balanced blend of rigidity and weight. These dimensions make it suitable for straight-run intercooler piping, air intake paths, and related cooling lines where a clean, direct route is desired.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh‑quality surface treatment provides a premium appearance and durable finish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePrecisely machined geometry supports easy cuts, splicing, or welding for custom installs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMandrel-bent aluminum tubing helps maintain uniform airflow, reducing sharp bends that hinder performance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMade from 6061 aluminum alloy, known for good heat tolerance and structural resilience.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFabrication-friendly and installation-ready\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pipe is designed with adaptability in mind. Its straight profile and robust material allow it to be cut, spliced, or welded to fit a wide array of configurations. Whether you’re refining an existing intake setup or building a new intercooler route, this tube offers a dependable backbone for your project. The combination of a 4-inch diameter and a long, straight segment can help achieve a smooth, direct pathway for air and cooling fluids, while still accommodating common mounting and connector patterns in aftermarket builds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eApplications and compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse cases include air intake plenums, cooling system loops, and turbo intercooler piping where a straight, durable aluminum tube is advantageous. The 6061 alloy provides a solid foundation for higher heat environments and repeated handling during fabrication. This pipe is intended for universal use, making it a practical option for many makes and models where a 4-inch OD straight section is appropriate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications at a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight tube, outside diameter: 4\" (102 mm); length: 11.8\" (300 mm); wall thickness: 0.078\" (2 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePremium surface treatment for a refined, corrosion‑resistant finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCut, splice, or weld-ready design for flexible custom fabrication\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAppropriate for air intake, cooling systems, and intercooler piping setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6061 aluminum alloy, suitable for a wide range of high‑heat and stress scenarios\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: What are the outer diameter and overall length of the AC PERFORMANCE 4-inch OD Intercooler Pipe?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Outer diameter is 4 inches (102 mm) and length is 11.8 inches (300 mm), with a 0.078 inch (2 mm) wall thickness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: What makes this pipe suitable for air intake and intercooler piping projects?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Made from 6061 aluminum with mandrel bending for smooth airflow; it supports cutting, splicing, or welding to fit custom setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"AC PERFORMANCE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42469552980053,"sku":"B07RPDR9H1","price":40.54,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0632\/3270\/4597\/files\/ac-performance-straight-intercooler-pipe-4in.jpg?v=1778096443","url":"https:\/\/plentytorque.co.uk\/products\/ac-performance-4-inch-od-straight-aluminum-intercooler-pipe-102mm-intake-tube-brushed-finish","provider":"PlentyTorque","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
