BlueMount Anodised CNC Billet Softmount Kit
Recarb Blue-Mount - The premium soft mount fitting system for DCO/DCOE/DHLA sidedraft carburettors
NEW FEATURE: BLUEMOUNTS NOW FINISHED IN ANODISED BLUE COLOUR !!
Kit includes:
- Two 6061-T6 billet carrier plates with dovetail groove for Quad-Ring seals
- Cut-outs to clear Weber choke housing
- Four Quad-Ring seals
- Four Thackeray washers (double coil washers to allow precision tensioning)
Recarb have completed design and engineering of an advanced soft mount system that takes DCOE side draft soft mounts to the next level, providing a more precise and effective seal in a precision-machined carrier plate that looks as good as it performs.
The secret of this extra performance is in the seal itself – a Quad-Ring that is located into a CNC Alloy housing. The Quad-Ring therefore provides a positively located seal that can only seal more effectively as it is tightened, but which actually requires less pressure to seal better than an O-ring. Less pressure means less chance of transferring engine vibrations into the carburettor; the whole point of using a soft mount system
O-rings versus Quad-Rings
Quad rings seal on four points and sit the carb surface square. The carbs are stable and seal better with less pressure.
Quad-Rings are more stable in dynamic applications – such as sealing between two surfaces that move independently of each other, which is precisely the application we are using them in with a soft mount.
Quad-Rings also require less compressive force to seal, which again is our objective here. Reduced sealing pressure means that the Quad-Ring retains the flexibility we want for reducing or eliminating harmonic vibration in our carburettors.
NOTE: Be sure to use NYLOCK nuts when using ANY softmounts.
Quad-Rings have the same properties as O-rings when it comes to resistance to chemical degradation but can outlast O-rings due to their multiple sealing surfaces – a Quad-Ring provides four sealing surfaces, as opposed to two sealing surfaces on an O-ring.
