The Viair 400C is designed for permanent vehicle mounting and is moisture and dust resistant (IP67 rated). 33% duty cycle means the unit can operate up to 20 minutes, then rest for 40 minutes before restarting in a 100 PSI, 72°F environment. Perfect for off-roaders who frequently air down for trails or beach running, or for commercial applications requiring reliable compressed air on demand.

Installation Note: Use thread sealant for proper installation. Thread tape is not recommended. Recommended torque for 1/4" and 3/8" fittings is 16-18 ft. lbs. When used with an air tank, must be paired with a 150 PSI or lower, non-adjustable pressure switch. Engine should be running during use to prevent battery drain.

excellent service !

This is my second time ordering from Autoplicity and both times they had the lowest price on the items I was looking for (brake pads and CAI filter). Fast shipping, my filter was at my door two days later. Overall very satified.

Simply awesome. The customer service was actually enjoyable to deal with and their prices are unbeatable (just ask Jegs). I will most definitely be doing business with Autoplicity again.

great prices.

I was amazed to find the air intake I wanted at the price offered by Autoplicity. No one else came close and the item was shipped very quickly. This store has been added to my favorites list........Thank You!!!!

I ordered a universal Hurst Pistol Grip "shift knob" for my '12 Mustang GT. It squeezed to a perfect fit right where I need to grip it. It improved shift time and accuracy greatly and feels and looks great! Autoplicity had the best price on the web and I got this in 3 business days. I recommend this product.

I received my Corsa exhaust for my Sequoia today; I had issues with Autoplicity with regard to the order/availability which once brought to their attention was rectified; in the end I had to wait a little longer than expected to receive my order but it was resolved and hopefully the management learned something from this experience.
