Description
SAFARI SS580HF 4X4 SNORKEL FOR LAND ROVER DEFENDER TD5 DIESEL – MAXIMUM AIRFLOW AND ENGINE PROTECTION
The Safari Land Rover Defender TD5 snorkel system improves airflow efficiency while protecting the engine in demanding off road environments. By raising the intake position, the snorkel reduces dust ingestion and helps prevent water from entering the intake system during river crossings or extreme weather conditions.
The aerodynamic Safari air ram channels cooler outside air into the snorkel body while separating moisture before it reaches the air filter assembly. This ensures reliable engine performance when driving through dusty tracks, mud terrain and remote off road trails.

VEHICLE COMPATIBILITY
Vehicle | Engine | Year | Safari Part Number |

SNORKEL SYSTEM DESIGN
The Safari SS580HF snorkel raises the vehicle air intake to roof level allowing the engine to draw cooler and cleaner air compared to the standard intake position. This reduces dust entering the air intake when driving on unsealed roads and helps protect the engine during water crossings.
The integrated Safari air ram system optimises airflow while also removing rainwater from the intake stream before it reaches the air cleaner assembly.
CONSTRUCTION AND DURABILITY
Safari snorkels are engineered to withstand extreme environments. The snorkel body and air ram are manufactured using UV stable cross linked polyethylene, providing excellent resistance to sunlight, heat and physical impact.
The thick wall construction provides superior strength ensuring the snorkel performs reliably during serious off road driving, overland travel and remote expeditions.
