In arguably the best, if not toughest environment, Safari Snorkel Systems are thoroughly researched, tested and tooled for each unique model of popular 4WD. Genuine Safari Snorkels - the snorkel trusted by the Australian Army. Safari Snorkel Systems are manufactured to the highest standards in durable, UV stable, cross linked polyethylene material and deliver a continuous and cooler supply of air for maximum engine performance. Each system includes quality fixtures and fittings, which offer superior sealing, presentation and long-term durability. Safari Snorkels were twice awarded Best After Market Product of the Year by 4X4 Australia Magazine, and are distributed extensively in Australia and around the world.

Questions and Answers regarding Safri Snorkel

Will installing a Safari snorkel increase the power output of my engine?

This depends in the standard air intake design of your vehicle. All Safari snorkels are designed to flow more cool fresh air than your engine could ever need and this may help the power output. However, the state of tune of your engine, at the time of fitting the Safari snorkel will determine the extent of any possible increase.

Will rain go down the inside of a Safari snorkel ram?

Even in a tropical rain storm, only a tiny volume of the impact moisture will enter the snorkel. The incoming rain droplets are broken up as they impact on the special, Safari designed grill cross ribs. The high speed of the air stream, as it turns the 90o corner in order to enter the Safari snorkel, causes the heavier rain droplets to move to the outside surfaces. Here the rain is collected in the expanded lower body of the Safari air ram ( outside the Safari snorkel body) and allowed to drain out, via the slots provided.

Is there any additional filter incorporated in a Safari snorkel?

No, there is no additional filter in a Safari snorkel.
The improved filtration actually results from the Safari snorkel's air intake being above the level of the heavy, wheel generated dust. In addition , a commercial configuration of pre-cleaner assembly can be added for further protection.

Will fitting a Safari snorkel obstruct driver vision?

No, no driver vision obstruction is permitted during the design phase of a Safari snorkel.
The simplest definition of forward vision requirements is that outlined by the windscreen wiper sweep. No Safari snorkel infringes upon that line of view.

How strong (durable) is a Safari snorkel body?

A Safari snorkel is made from material which is sufficiently strong enough to permit it to recover its shape even after being driven over by a typical 4WD!

Is it necessary to remove the standard pre-cleaner, when installing a Safari snorkel?

If the vehicle manufacturer utilises a genuine, filter element equipped pre-cleaner, then Safari retains that component. If the vehicle manufacturer has nothing or merely an empty, internally finned container (which spins the incoming air), Safari connects directly from the snorkel body to the main air cleaner entry. This is particularly important when the standard components are poorly sealed from a dust an/or water point of view. If any further pre-cleaning is required, see the answer to the following question.

When should a pre-cleaner be used with a Safari snorkel?

The commercial configuration of pre-cleaner, supplied by Safari, should only be used in heavy dust conditions, off asphalt surfaces at speeds below 80kph.

What air filter element should be used in conjunction with a Safari snorkel?

All Safari snorkels are designed to be used only in conjunction with genuine original equipment air filter elements. Safari does not recommend any type of oiled foam element.

From what material is a Safari snorkel made?

A Safari snorkel is manufactured from UV stable cross linked polyethylene, which is a special form of plastic.

Will rust form on the edge of the snorkel mounting holes?

No, when a Safari snorkel is fitted correctly, all mounting hole edges are rust proofed.

Will fitting a Safari snorkel effect the fuel consumption?

Correct installation of a Safari snorkel will result in unchanged of slightly improved fuel consumption.

Can a Safari snorkel be fitted in conjunction with L.P.G?

Safari snorkels are primarily developed to protect diesel and petrol engines. Safari does no snorkel development work with LPG Consequently, the customer must ensure that his L.P.G installer has sufficient experience to use the correct LPG equipment, together with the necessary tuning knowledge.

Can I fit a Safari snorkel myself? (If not how long will a professional installer take?)

While you can fit it yourself, presuming you have the necessary tools (see specific fitting instructions), it is highly recommended that you have it professionally fitted. On average, it takes around two hours and only adds around 20% to the cost of the snorkel kit. This is a very worthwhile investment, ensuring your complete satisfaction with the product.
