Quiet performance. It's the reason you buy a silencer. But when you buy Nelson silencers, you get so much more. Nelson silencers not only quietly outperform the competition, they outlast them. Our heavy duty aluminized steel construction and three step finishing process resists heat and corrosion, so Nelson silencers last longer and can operate at a maximum temperature of 1250° F. So Nelson silencers don't require costly metco or zinc coatings. i 1 E f leveL And Nelson silencers are smaller and lighter than competitive silencers, so installation is easy and you save money on freight costs. 63 125 250 500 K X 4( Odave Band Genter Frequency (Hz) What's more. Nelson has an on-site, state-of-the-art acoustical test facility. We test our silencers on several different engines so you know you're getting a silencer that performs. No wonder Nelson silencers are the quietest in the industry. Unlike single-data line curves, which represent only one engine, the Nelson attenuation graph realistically depicts the range of attenuation achieved on various engines NELSON DIVISION The bottom line?
