Vapor Trapper Kit
Billet aluminum. No more gas station in the garage. A vent-to-atmosphere tank does exactly what the name says; it vents into the air you are standing in. That is the truck you can smell from the driveway and the shop that smells like a pump island two days after you parked it. The Vapor Trapper is a charcoal canister machined from 6061 billet aluminum that catches those vapors before they reach the room. The media is rechargeable; when it saturates you replace the contents instead of the canister. Shop48 built it because EFI conversions; fuel cells and custom tanks made this a common problem and nothing on the shelf solved it. This is the complete kit: canister; billet mount; hose and hardware; and the (-6) ORB to 3/8 inch barb fittings. One box instead of four separate orders and four separate lead times. Machined and assembled in Arizona. Patent pending. Lifetime warranty.

Product Overview
The Vapor Trapper is a high-quality billet aluminum charcoal vapor canister designed to reduce or eliminate fuel odors caused by vented fuel tanks. It is the only aftermarket, universally designed charcoal vapor canister available, making it ideal for cars, trucks, hot rods, boats, and custom builds.
Manufactured from 6061 billet aluminum, the Vapor Trapper is built to last a lifetime and features rechargeable charcoal media, allowing the contents to be replaced once saturated. This is a long-term solution—not a disposable fix.
As EFI conversions, fuel cells, and custom tanks have become more common, fuel odor has become a widespread issue. Shop48 developed the Vapor Trapper specifically to address this problem where other solutions fall short.
Installation
Installation is simple and flexible. The Vapor Trapper installs in-line with your fuel tank vent hose and supports nearly any inlet/outlet configuration.
- Uses (-6) AN O-Ring Boss fittings
- Compatible with rubber fuel hose (barb fittings) or AN fittings for custom installs
- Can be mounted using two 2-1/2” clamps
Important: Install the Vapor Trapper—or at minimum the inlet line—well above the fuel tank. Liquid fuel entering the charcoal media will significantly reduce performance.
Made in the USA
Proudly manufactured and assembled in the USA, right here in Arizona.
