Product Description

The adapter set features a universal collector flange with 3 bolt holes and a spacing of 3 1/32" on both sides, for 2-1/2" pipe
With continuous heating and cooling of the exhaust system, tension is produced in the header and manifold flanges, resulting in gaps between the head and header, which Remflex exhaust gaskets completely seal because of the thickness and compressibility of their 100 percent flexible graphite.
Emflex exhaust gaskets are available in a standard 1/8-inch thickness and are designed to crush by 50 percent, allowing them to fill any pits or gaps in the flange surface up to 1/16 inch.
Due to the contraction and expansion of the dissimilar materials, the combination of an aluminum cylinder head and steel header or manifold can cause gap issues in the matching flanges. Remflex exhaust gaskets eliminate these gaps completely.
Remflex exhaust gaskets do not contain rubber binders or composite materials, therefore they are not subject to shrinking or hardening over time or due to temperature extremes, so you will not need to retighten the exhaust bolts periodically.

A gasket only needs to be used once. As far as I know, there hasn't been a blowout of any of them. They are very good for not perfect fits. Many of my hot rods have been built by me

We've got the best of everything, so stop shopping
5/5

Do not double-space This was stacked to fix an issue with a misaligned header collector flange. It definitely worked as expected, I could definitely see how the 50% compression allowed it to seal the gap between both gaskets. It is important to note that these gaskets are easily broken Assembly should be done with care. I used these to replace a gasket that had disintegrated in both collectors of a high-performance car. You know, the kind that has Mister and Gasket in the title. As if I had a saltine cracker in my hands, I could crumble the old gasket in my hands. It took about 200 miles to get to the destination.

Gasket of high quality
5/5

gaskets are thicker than the traditional ones, so at first I thought that they were strange. Although they were extremely easy to install, they provided a highly reliable seal as well. In my application, one of the three flange bolts is hard to reach, which means that it might not be possible to torque it fully down. The gasket is nevertheless very beefy, and it still completely seals.

This is thick
5/5

I installed them with no more fuss than any other gasket. They appear to have squished properly and sealed just fine. Time will tell how long they will last.

Gaskets for an exhaust system that is best

Fits a 3 inch collector perfectly. Add an extra half an inch if your flanges are thin.
