{"title":"Torque Tube blankets and pads","description":"\u003cp\u003eA torque tube is a hollow steel tube that connects the transmission to the differential, protecting the driveshaft and providing structural support. It's an essential component in many performance vehicles, especially drag cars. To protect the driver and the vehicle in case of a component failure, enthusiasts and professional racers often install a torque tube blanket. This thermal blanket, sometimes called a torque ball safety blanket, is designed to contain the driveshaft if it breaks under extreme stress. These protective blankets are often made from durable, heat-resistant materials and are required by most racing associations for safety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to safety, these torque tube blankets and pads can also act as an engine diaper or cover for the bell housing. This extra layer of protection not only keeps the driveshaft contained but also helps to absorb fluids in case of an oil pan or transmission failure. This is especially important for keeping the track surface clean and safe for other racers. By installing a torque tube blanket, you can significantly reduce the risk of catastrophic failure and ensure the safety of your vehicle and others on the track.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"torque-ball-safety-blanket","title":"Allstar Performance Torque Ball Safety Blanket","description":"Torque Ball Shield - Quick Release Straps - Adjustable - Brackets \/ Hardware - Nylon - Black - Each","brand":"Allstar Performance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49691424915769,"sku":"DNLF_ALL55220","price":399.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/0903\/3273\/files\/ALL55220.jpg?v=1722244898"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/0903\/3273\/collections\/Torque_Tube_blankets_and_pads.jpg?v=1758366578","url":"https:\/\/tuning4.com\/collections\/torque-tube-blankets-and-pads.oembed","provider":"Tuning4 Auto Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
