Key Features

• Material: 304 stainless steel band for high strength and corrosion resistance.
• Hardware: Includes a zinc-plated M10 bolt, nut, and I-block for secure fastening.
• Design: Lap joint style for sealing a 3" OD pipe over a 3" ID pipe.
• Function: Creates a 360-degree seal without distorting pipes or requiring welding.
• Band Width: Provides wide surface area for a durable, leak-proof connection.

Replaces / Cross-Reference Part Numbers

• TF-J60
• Universal 3-inch lap joint exhaust clamp

Compatibility & Fitment

• Pipe Size: Specifically designed to connect a 3-inch Outer Diameter (OD) pipe to a 3-inch Inner Diameter (ID) pipe.
• Applications: Ideal for muffler inlets/outlets, elbow joints, flex pipes, resonators, and other exhaust system connections.
• System Type: Suitable for OEM and aftermarket exhaust systems requiring a lap joint connection.

When to Replace

• Audible exhaust leaks, such as hissing or ticking, are present at the connection.
• The existing clamp shows signs of significant rust, corrosion, or physical damage.
• Exhaust components are loose or rattling at the clamped joint.
• When replacing adjacent exhaust components like mufflers or pipes.

Installation Tips

• Ensure the pipe surfaces are clean and free of rust, grease, and debris.
• Position the clamp over the stepped connection point, ensuring the OD pipe fully overlaps the ID pipe.
• Place the I-block directly over the slit in the outer pipe for even pressure distribution.
• Tighten the nut gradually and evenly to the recommended torque specification. Do not over-tighten.
• After installation, start the vehicle and check the connection for any signs of leaks.
