Catalytic Converter: The Ultimate Guide (2025 Update)

The Essential Guide to Catalytic Converters: Why Catman Leads the Industry

For over a decade, Catman has been the trusted global supplier of high-performance catalytic converters, DPFs, and exhaust systems. With a 12-month guarantee on all products and unmatched technical expertise, we ensure your vehicle meets emission standards while optimizing performance.

What Is a Catalytic Converter?

A catalytic converter is a critical emissions control device that transforms harmful exhaust pollutants like nitrogen oxides (NOx) and carbon monoxide into less toxic gases. Modern vehicles rely on this technology to comply with environmental regulations introduced after the 1965 National Emissions Standards Act. To explore different types of catalytic converters and their applications, visit our dedicated guide.

How Catalytic Converters Work

Inside every Catman catalytic converter, you’ll find:

  • A ceramic honeycomb structure coated with platinum, palladium, or rhodium
  • Reduction catalysts to break down NOx into nitrogen and oxygen
  • Oxidation catalysts to convert CO into CO₂ via advanced emission control mechanisms

Maintenance Tips for Longevity

Extend your catalytic converter’s lifespan with these expert-recommended practices:
