EVIL ENERGY 2.25" Exhaust Clamp 2 1/4" Stainless Steel Butt-Joint Sleeve — 2-Pack, 3" Strap & M10 Fastener

EVIL ENERGY 2.25" exhaust clamp is a stainless-steel lap joint band designed to securely join two 2.25" OD exhaust pipes without welding, supplied as a two-piece set.

This heavy-duty butt joint sleeve coupler makes connecting mufflers, catalytic converters, and exhaust pipe sections fast and reliable. Built from 304 stainless steel with a zinc-plated M10 fastener and aluminum alloy I-block, it compresses evenly around the joint to form a durable seal while minimizing pipe distortion. The set includes two clamps, sized for 2.25" (2 1/4") outer diameter pipes, and a wide 3" strap for improved clamping surface.

How does this clamp create a tight seal without welding?

The clamp uses a full-band lap design that wraps entirely around the pipe overlap, compressing the joint with a single M10 bolt and nut. The I-block transfers torque evenly so you get consistent compression across the 360° circumference, reducing gaps that cause leaks. With a rated torque of 63 N·m the clamp compresses the gasket area while protecting the pipe shape.

• 304 stainless steel band resists corrosion for longer service life
• Aluminum alloy I-block evenly distributes clamping force
• Zinc-plated M10 bolt and nut for secure, corrosion-resistant fastening
• 3" strap width increases contact area for a stronger seal

Will this clamp fit my exhaust parts and where is it used?

This lap joint clamp is sized specifically for connecting two pipes with a 2.25" outer diameter and works on butt joints where one pipe overlaps the other. It’s commonly used to join sections of exhaust tubing, connect mufflers, secure catalytic converters, or link adapter pieces on cars, trucks, ATVs and custom builds. The no-weld installation is useful for temporary repairs, prototype mock-ups, or systems where you want removable connections.

• Fits pipes with 2.25" OD (2 1/4")—ensure OD match before purchase
• Ideal for mufflers, catalytic converters, and straight pipe sections
• Good for repair, replacement, or custom exhaust assemblies
• Two clamps included for multi-joint jobs or spare parts

How easy is installation and what tools do I need?

Installation requires no welding or special fabrication—simply slip the band over the overlapped joint, align the I-block, and tighten the M10 nut and bolt to the specified torque. Basic hand tools are sufficient: a torque wrench or socket wrench sized for M10 fasteners is recommended to reach the clamp’s 63 N·m torque rating. The design allows removal and reuse when you need to service or reposition components.

• No welding—reduces labor time and heat-related pipe distortion
• Requires standard socket or torque wrench for M10 hardware
• Re-usable design supports maintenance or modular exhaust layouts
• Steel gasket improves sealing where surfaces are imperfect

Who is this for? DIY mechanics, exhaust shops, fabricators and vehicle owners who want a robust, removable connection for 2.25" OD exhaust tubing will find this clamp useful. It’s particularly suited to repairs where welding isn’t practical, custom exhaust builds that require trial fitting, and maintenance tasks needing corrosion-resistant hardware. Choose EVIL ENERGY’s stainless-steel lap joint clamp when you want a straightforward, durable way to join pipes that balances ease of use with long-term performance.
