Safari Snorkels

Safari Snorkel - SS12HF
The Safari SS12HF snorkel is tough and stylish and has been designed to deliver a huge volume of the coolest and cleanest air possible into the stock air cleaner assembly of the Nissan Patrol.

Safari took the decision to design a snorkel system that not only exceeded the air flow requirements of the stock 2.8L diesel engine configuration, but also satisfied the mass air flow demands of modified engines that produce greater than stock horsepower.

Close attention to the internal cross sectional profile and area, air velocity and flow path through each and every point along the entire length of the snorkel system ensures that the greatest air flow is achieved.

In order to achieve the optimum air flow ducting route to the engine within the tight confines of the Nissan Patrol's engine bay, precision moulded ducts and hoses were engineered. These tough ducts and hoses closely couple the snorkel body to the new high efficiency air intake assembly, and take full advantage of the tight spaces that would preclude the use of traditional hoses.

These tough extreme duty components not only deliver maximum engine performance and the best possible fuel economy, but also the best structural integrity for a lifetime of hassle-free motoring over and through the world's toughest terrain.

Huge air flow is but one aspect of the ultimate in snorkel design. The Safari air ram is designed to perform two very important roles. The most obvious is to funnel cool clean air into the snorkel body - but just as importantly, the Safari air ram acts as a higly efficient water separator to remove rain water from the incoming air stream - thus ensuring safe engine operation through even the most torrential tropical storms.

In addition, the detachable Safari air ram can be rotated to any position. This means great peace of mind for those who plan to travel in cold or high altitude conditions where heavy snow falls are anticipated. By rotating the air ram to face away from the prevailing wind/direction of motion, the air ram delivers additional protection from the choking effects of snow build-up inside the air intake.

The Safari Snorkel body and air ram are manufactured to the highest standards in durable, UV stable, cross linked polyethylene material. In addition, the substantial material wall thickness delivers huge physical strength to ensure that the snorkel breezes through the toughest off-road conditions on the planet.

The Safari Snorkel system is supplied as a complete and comprehensive system that includes every nut, bolt and bracket required for installation - right from robust zero-corrosion stainless steel studs, self-locking nyloc nuts and large diameter anodized body washers through to the tough plastic A-pillar inserts.

Accurately marked templates are also provided to eliminate any guess work and to ensure that the installation of the snorkel body and adaptors is as precise as possible.

Breathe Easy - The genuine Safari Snorkel is positively sealed and delivers a continuous and cooler supply of air for the best engine protection on the planet.
