Universal-Fit Converters

Langhorne, PA... Eastern Catalytic, a world-class manufacturer of catalytic converters and related emission control components, has dramatically increased the market coverage for its growing direct-fit and universal-fit catalytic converters programs. Eastern now offers approximately 1,300 direct-fit catalytic converter part numbers with coverage for over 25,000 domestic and import cars, vans, SUVs and light trucks. The universal line has been expanded to over 285 part numbers and can fit 95% of registered vehicles in the USA (all states, except CA) and Canada.

Eastern’s Direct-Fit Catalytic Converters are designed to OE dimensions with OE-quality flanges and flex assemblies. Most come complete with Eastern’s ValuPack™ installation kit, which includes air tube and hose clamps, manifold nuts and bolts, and necessary gaskets. All applications can be looked up online at www.easterncatalytic.com.

With over 285 universal-fit configurations, Eastern Catalytic now offers the widest coverage for domestic and import cars, light trucks, SUVs, and vans, as well as hard-to-find configurations for both gasoline and diesel engines. Designed to meet or exceed OE specs for fit and performance, the converters are available for engines up to 8.0L. They come in shell sizes from 8” – 14” and are offered in a wide range of inlet and outlet size, and are available with and without air tubes and O2 sensor ports. Most feature top and bottom heat shields.

Eastern recently established a joint venture with Dorman Products (Colmar, PA) and formed Eastern-Dorman LLC to develop, manufacture, and distribute an industry-leading line of integrated exhaust manifold/catalytic converters to traditional, retail, and export automotive channels. The new arrangement will team Eastern’s strong manufacturing capabilities with Dorman’s access to wider markets across the United States and Canada.

World-class quality and innovation have helped Eastern earn catalytic converter certifications in over 58 countries. Continual improvements in converter design, production, and product delivery systems have made Eastern a leading choice in catalytic converters and one of the fastest growing catalytic converter manufacturers in North America.

Today, Eastern can meet its customers’ catalytic converter needs with a full range of catalytic converters for universal, direct-fit, manifold, diesel, and heavy-duty applications.
