Each strap is 1.22 inches (31 mm) wide and engineered to create a uniform 360° seal around the joint using a zinc-plated M10 bolt and nut, a steel gasket and an aluminum alloy I-block. The clamp is intended for mechanics, fabricators and DIYers who want a secure, removable exhaust joint with a rated torque of 63 N·m.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this clamp join exhaust parts without welding?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe clamp uses a narrow stainless steel band that wraps fully around the pipe and compresses the joint evenly when the bolt is tightened.
