EXHAUST SEAL

$5.98

Description
  • Purpose: The primary function of an exhaust seal is to prevent the leakage of exhaust gases from the joints or connections within the exhaust system. This helps maintain proper exhaust flow, reduces noise, and prevents harmful emissions from escaping.
  • Material Composition: Exhaust seals are typically made from heat-resistant materials such as graphite, metal, or high-temperature silicone. These materials are chosen for their ability to withstand the extreme temperatures and corrosive exhaust gases encountered in the exhaust system.
  • Design: Exhaust seals are designed to fit snugly between the mating surfaces of exhaust components, such as exhaust manifolds, pipes, catalytic converters, mufflers, and exhaust tips. They may feature a compressible design or include metal reinforcement for added durability.
  • Installation: Exhaust seals are installed at the joints or connections of exhaust components during assembly. Proper installation techniques, such as ensuring clean mating surfaces and applying appropriate torque to fasteners, are essential for effective sealing.
  • Maintenance: Regular inspection of exhaust seals is important to check for signs of wear, damage, or deterioration, especially in high-temperature environments. Worn or damaged seals should be promptly replaced to maintain the integrity of the exhaust system and prevent leaks.
