3M provides the answer to catalytic converter mounting challenges with its Interam mat mounting and insulation system. The product is used to secure the ceramic monolith inside the converter and for endcone insulation for internally insulated converters.
Additional Information
Keeping a catalytic converter working properly is a major challenge. The monolith must be cushioned yet firmly positioned inside its metal housing over a range of more than 1,700-degrees F. Then there's the need to avoid internal gas blow-by and provide built-in heat shielding. Resembling a felt-like blanket, the 3M™ Interam™ mat mount expands and increases its holding force as converter
3M™ Interam™ Intumescent Mat Mount Series 1M is designed for increased erosion resistance and reduced peak holding forces to reduce ring-off crack formation.
