Snorkels are commonly the first accessory ever fitted to a four wheel drive. They provide hassle free air induction when immersed in dust. Air is cooler and cleaner at roof level than air travelling via the bonnet, which means greater fuel efficiency and less clogging of air filters. These are important factors, particularly when 4WDing on dry, dusty roads.
TJM Airtec snorkels are manufactured at the highest level. All products are made with leading Australian polymer materials that exceed the Australian Standard for UV stabilisation of UV8, with ratings at UV20-UV24. The colour pigmentation process doesn’t cut any corners either, giving you an even, dense and bleed-free product.
Unlike other manufacturers, TJM engineer and design the snorkel individually to suit the natural shape of the vehicle. Although functionality is important, we want you to look good too!
Proudly Australian made and quality assured, you can have the confidence that a TJM Airtec snorkel will achieve peak performance each and every time.
Know before you buy
Before you buy a snorkel
A snorkel moves your engine's air intake up to roof height, above the dust and spray. It's a precise, vehicle-specific fit, and it won't make your vehicle waterproof.
- Made for your engine
Snorkels are made for a specific model and engine, so a Prado diesel and a Prado V6 take different kits. Check the listing against your vehicle and engine.
- Not waterproofing
A snorkel raises the air intake. It doesn't seal the engine bay or electrics, and your vehicle maker's wading depth still applies.
- Breathers too
Factory diff and gearbox breathers often sit low. Many owners raise them at the same time as fitting a snorkel.
- Which way to face it
The air ram separates rain from the air coming in. Turning it backwards in heavy dust can reduce airflow (Safari).
Common questions
Is a snorkel worth it if I don't cross water?
Many owners fit one for dust. The intake sits at roof height, above the dust thrown up on gravel roads and behind other vehicles.
Can I drive through deeper water with a snorkel?
No. A snorkel moves the air intake, but it doesn't waterproof the engine bay, electrics or driveline. Your vehicle maker's wading depth still applies.
Are factory raised air intakes the same as a snorkel?
No. Safari notes that factory raised intakes are not watertight.
Do I need diff breathers?
Factory diff and gearbox breathers are often poorly located for water crossings (ARB). A breather kit raises them so water isn't drawn in as the housings cool.
Should I use a pre-cleaner sock?
Only on dusty tracks below 40 km/h, cleaned daily, and not on the highway (Safari).
