Ford Transit Connect Catalytic Converter 2.0L 4cyl 2010-2013 BANK1

The main component of ceramic carrier is cordierite, which is usually extruded, dried and sintered at high temperature using ceramic materials. The ceramic carrier is a honeycomb-like entity when viewed from the cross-section, and the wall thickness is very thin. The purpose is to try to make full use of the existing volume to increase the chemical reaction area of the catalyst reaction bed, and also to prevent thermal degradation of the catalyst. In order to allow the catalytic converter gas flow to have a larger surface flow area, the carrier is usually made into a honeycomb shape with very thin wall thickness to make full use of the limited space. At present, the main product specifications mostly use 400 mesh (400 holes/square inch) or 600 mesh (600 holes/square inch) ceramic honeycomb carrier. During the extrusion process, a large number of thin-walled, parallel, usually square channels are generated.
