Exhaust Hardware

Exhaust Hardware

Exhaust hardware covers the nuts, bolts, clamps, flanges, v-band couplers, and miscellaneous fasteners that hold your exhaust system together. Using quality hardware ensures your exhaust stays sealed, properly supported, and easy to service.

Popular Upgrades

Most commonly ordered exhaust hardware includes stainless steel exhaust flange bolts and nuts, 2.5 to 3-inch exhaust clamps for connecting system sections, v-band clamps and weld flanges for turbo and downpipe connections, and heat-resistant exhaust paste or sealant for leak prevention.

What hardware is needed to install an aftermarket exhaust?

A typical cat-back exhaust installation requires clamps or v-band flanges to connect sections, hardware bolts for mounting points, and exhaust hangers or hanger hardware to suspend the system. Some kits include all hardware, but having extra clamps and exhaust bolts on hand is good practice.

Are stainless steel exhaust bolts worth the upgrade?

Yes. Stainless steel exhaust bolts resist rust and corrosion significantly better than OEM-grade hardware, which makes future removal much easier. This is especially valuable on vehicles in regions with road salt exposure. Many experienced builders use stainless hardware on all new exhaust installs.
