TORQUE IT!!!

I ordered these lap style band clamps because I wanted an upgrade from the old u bolt clamps that came with my new stainless steel, cat back exhaust system. However these clamps came without instructions, and I found hand tight, was not enough to secure the joints. I went to my local auto parts store and read the instructions off the box of a similar band clamp, stating it should be torqued between 48 & 60 LB. FT. I torqued mine to 55 LB. FT., so in the end it all worked out great, tight & leak free joints.

Nice Stainless Band Clamps

These clamps seem to be very well made and worked exactly as they are supposed to. I don't know what's up with some of the bad reviews on here. Maybe some purchasers were sent the wrong clamps, or maybe some of these purchasers just don't know what a "Lap Joint" band clamp is, and what it's sized for. The clamps I received were exactly the size that I ordered and they fit perfectly. These were just what I was looking for, and (so far, anyway) I have no complaints whatsoever.

Perfect joint!

This is a perfect joint! I wasn't sure how well this would work so I wrapped the connection with muffler repair tape first. It was a little loose at first, about 1/8 gap all around both sides. But as I tightened the nuts the joint started to form fit around the connection. It fit so tightly that you can see the divot from the last muffler joint I had on there. I did have to cut the bolts once fully tightened so it would clear the skid plate, but that isn't a problem with the design. I would definitely recommend

Works like a charm

I received exactly what I ordered. 3 inch lap joint band clamps. They fit my 3 inch exhaust perfectly and worked like a charm, an great fit and no leaks at all! And they're stainless steel. If your ever in the market for buying exhaust systems, stainless steel is the way to go with every part. Itll make your life easier.

Worked perfectly to connect my separated exhaust pipe. Definitely worth the money.

I had a flaired female 3" OD exhaust connection that wouldn't allow me to fit the 3" ID male connection on my 2014 RAM 1500. It was either bring my truck to a muffler shop, or find something that can reattach the two. I used the 3" ID x 3" OD lap joint along with some heat resistant silver tape to clamp the two separated pipe together. Although there were no instructions on how to put this together, it was real simple--if you are trying to fix your exhaust pipe on your own, then you should definitely be able to assemble this lap joint on it. Installation was fairly easy, a 9/16" deep bolt socket and a 9/16" wrench to hold the nut should work with no issues. The thickness of the sheet is thin, like 0.020 thin (I measured it with my calipers). However, it feels solid and almost malleable to the pipe as I tightened it to my exhaust. Definitely worth the money. As time goes on, I'll add to my review. At this time though, I feel very great about this lap joint and encourage anyone that needs it to buy this kind.

Top Quality Stainless Band Clamps !

These clamps hold tight and make a clean job of connecting exhaust components together. I like to use them in order to make the system easy to remove for related repairs, etc. Plus they look great !

Happy with these. They work well.

I bought one of these clamps in 2.5" and one in 2.25". They both are working excellent. Be sure to understand how to take your measurements before ordering and they'll work great.

Absolutely A-plus

This is the only clamp I use for any exhaust system I work on. They are fully reusable, and when I need to change a component of my exhaust it slides apart with ease. Zero leaks at the joints, well worth the little extra cost of these clamps vs bar clamps which crimp your exhaust at connections.

No leaks or noise.

Great design. My van needed a transmission rebuild and the exhaust Y pipe is a major obstruction.Yes you can drop the entire Y pipe but any mechanic will tell you it is a pain. So I cut the Y in a straight section near the passenger side and removed the driver side portion of the Y. I wanted a good solid reconnect and a buddy told me about this sleeve so I got it quick on Anazon and installed it .. no problem. It seals completely...no leaks or noise.

Great design, quick shipping

Item arrived very quickly. Material feels like a cookie cutter. It is advertised as being stainless steel and it feels just like it. I don't have a machine to verify but I believe it to actually be true. It's designed so if your exhaust you are clamping is slightly larger or smaller than the size it is made to fit, it should still bite down. Bolts and nuts are included, seem to snug down well. There are no locknut's included so I'll have to see how this holds up. It's been below freezing this past week so I have yet to actually install it in my vehicle to test but I was very impressed with it's build and tested it by clamping some piping together in the shop. That held together very well. If I ever need another I will be sure to reorder.
