Autogem Exhaust Clamp – U Style – Pack of 10 (EC42)

Description

Genuine Autogem · Part no. EC42

EC42 from Autogem is a ten-pack of 42mm U style clamps for exhaust joints, where a male pipe sits inside a female pipe end. Use them when replacing a section, a silencer or a back box, or when an old clamp has rusted through, and measure the pipe first so you know the 42mm size is right for your car.

Good to know

• How tight should the nuts be? Tighten the two nuts a little at a time, turn about, so the saddle pulls down square; overtightening can crush or split the pipe.
• Will a clamp cure a blowing exhaust? Only if the leak is at a joint. A hole, split or rusted-through section needs a repair bandage or a new section, because a clamp joins pipes and doesn't mend them.
• How do I get the joint gas-tight? Spread exhaust jointing paste round the overlap before you slide the pipes together and clamp them, then run the engine and listen for any blowing.

Which one?

If the pipe measures nearer 38mm, the Autogem EC38 pack fits better; nearer 45mm, choose EC45.
