Catalytic Converter Petrol: Top 5 Benefits for Your Vehicle’s Performance
Why Your Vehicle Needs a High-Quality Catalytic Converter Petrol
Modern vehicles rely on catalytic converter petrol systems to meet environmental regulations and maintain engine efficiency. At Catman, we specialize in supplying OEM-grade catalytic converters that transform harmful exhaust gases like CO, NOx, and hydrocarbons into safer emissions. Our products come with a minimum 12-month warranty, ensuring long-term reliability for your petrol-powered vehicle.
How a Catalytic Converter Petrol Works
These emissions control devices use a ceramic honeycomb structure coated with precious metals (platinum, palladium, and rhodium) to enable three key chemical reactions. Unlike diesel particulate filters (DPFs), which primarily target soot, petrol converters focus on gaseous pollutants:
- Oxidation of carbon monoxide into CO₂
- Reduction of nitrogen oxides into nitrogen gas
- Conversion of unburnt hydrocarbons into water vapor
Key Components
Our catalytic converter petrol systems feature:
- Durable stainless steel housing
- Thermal-resistant ceramic substrate (similar to monolith catalyst supports used in DPFs)
- Oxygen storage components
