Engines and exhaust systems move during operation due to engine torque, vibration and thermal expansion. A flexible section can provide controlled movement between components and reduce the amount of vibration transferred through the exhaust system.

This is particularly important on trucks, commercial vehicles and industrial equipment, where large exhaust systems can place significant loads on mounting brackets, joints and adjoining exhaust components.

Correctly installed flexible exhaust pipe can also make fabrication easier where a small amount of movement or alignment adjustment is required between exhaust components.

• Check the required internal diameter and length before ordering.
• Exhaust system must be adequately supported on both sides of the flexible section.
• Do not install under excessive tension, compression or misalignment.
• Damage caused by incorrect installation, excessive movement or unsupported exhaust weight is not considered a manufacturing defect.

What size is SSF127?

SSF127 has a 127mm (5") internal diameter and is supplied in a 1 metre length.

Is the 127mm measurement inside or outside diameter?

The 127mm measurement is the internal diameter (ID) of the flexible exhaust pipe.

What material is SSF127 made from?

SSF127 is manufactured from 304 stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance.

Is this flexible exhaust pipe Australian made?

Yes. SSF127 is an Australian-made flexible exhaust product.

Can it be used on a truck?

Yes. The large 127mm (5") diameter makes SSF127 particularly suitable for truck, heavy commercial and industrial exhaust applications.

Can flexible exhaust pipe support the weight of the exhaust?

No. The exhaust system should be independently supported with suitable brackets and hangers. Flexible pipe should primarily accommodate movement and vibration rather than carry the weight of the exhaust system.

Can it be cut to a shorter length?

Yes, flexible exhaust pipe can be cut for custom fabrication, but appropriate cutting and installation techniques should be used to avoid damaging or distorting the flexible construction.

Can this flexible exhaust pipe be used in an enclosed area?

No. Flexible exhaust pipe is not recommended for enclosed areas or installations where any potential exhaust gas seepage could enter a vehicle cabin or occupied space. For these applications, use a fully gas-tight exhaust pipe or approved flexible connection designed for the installation.

Do you ship Australia wide?

Yes. Best Mufflers ships flexible exhaust pipe and exhaust components throughout Australia.
