Description
Overview:
The Air Filter Inlet Bend (OEM 87 197) is a genuine BSA component made for the BSA 50 cc Industrial Engine. Built from durable metal, this bent intake tube links the air cleaner to the engine intake, guiding airflow smoothly and helping protect internal parts from dust and debris. Its form ensures neat, secure routing within the assembly to maintain a steady air supply for consistent starting and running. Supplied as unused vintage old stock, it may show light tarnish or storage marks, but performance remains unaffected. As a like-for-like replacement, it fits in place of the original bend without the need for modifications and is suitable for routine maintenance or restoring period machinery to factory specification.
Key Features:
- Genuine BSA part (OEM 87 197) for assured compatibility and quality
- Direct-fit replacement for the BSA 50 cc Industrial Engine inlet bend
- Robust metal construction for long service life under vibration and heat
- Maintains a smooth, sealed air path to protect the engine and filtration system
- Helps support stable idle and throttle response by ensuring consistent airflow
- Unused old stock; minor cosmetic tarnish or dust from storage is possible only
- Straightforward installation with basic hand tools; no modifications expected
- Ideal for repairs, overhauls, or full vintage engine restorations
- Compact elbow profile for tidy routing in confined engine spaces
Typical Applications:
Used on BSA 50 cc industrial engines powering small plant and equipment. Suitable when the original inlet is cracked, dented, missing, or leaking, and during air cleaner or carburettor servicing. Helps restore correct airflow on workshop machinery, agricultural kit, site tools, and other stationary equipment where reliable engine breathing is essential.
Also known as:
Air inlet elbow, intake elbow, air cleaner bend, air filter elbow, air intake pipe, cleaner-to-carburettor elbow, intake duct, suction elbow, air snorkel, inlet tube. These names describe the same bent connector between the air filter and the engine intake on BSA 50 cc industrial units.
