ZFBB 2.5" Lap Joint Band Clamp Exhaust Clamps Pipe Parts Stainless Steel 2Pcs

Replaced the exhaust and down pipe. The after market exhaust came with cheesy little clamps. I had used these type before. Bought them and put them on, threw that other junk in the trash! These clamp and hold well. Remember to check the torque after about a day!

Well made, but turns out that I didn’t need. Returned.

Helped greatly with install of resonator

Nicely made, strong hardware, fast shipping, fits 2.25” and 60mm exhaust pipe lap joints, good value.

The semi circle bosses (for lack of a better term) don't seat fully into the channel. I could see that after hand tightening there was light coming through. I broke out my impact gun and cinched them up further but the the heads of the bolts rounded off and the gaps didn't seal completely. The size selected was matched to the outlet of the flex coupling I bough and my exhaust, with the curved surface installed towards the pipes. There also is no lock washers and I believe the rough side of the nut is supposed to act as the retaining feature. I applied Loctite just the same. That said, the finish on the product was nice, and I do believe this is a good method for joining pipes together. It definitely reduced the exhaust leak sound substantially compared to the completely severed flew pipe I removed. I just wish the bosses set completely into the recess, and sealed the entire length. Afterwards I researched and saw that some people wrap the connection with a few layers of AL foil or applied a muffler and tail pipe sealer. I don't know if they would be long term solutions.

outstanding

i used them to connect new down pipes to my Flowmaster's and they worked great and sealed perfectly

Great quality and easy to install.
