Turbosmart WG38 Weld Flanges - Stainless Steel Universal
Turbosmart WG38 Weld Flanges provide precision V-band connections for 38mm external wastegates in custom turbo setups. These stainless steel flanges weld directly to exhaust manifolds and dump pipes for secure wastegate mounting. Built for high-performance reliability they ensure leak-free operation under boost.
Key Features
- 304 Stainless Steel Construction: High-grade material resists corrosion and withstands extreme exhaust temperatures for long-term durability.
- Laser Cut Precision: Accurate fabrication ensures perfect V-band clamp alignment reducing leaks and improving boost control.
- Universal Wastegate Compatibility: Designed for all Turbosmart 38mm external wastegates including IWG75 and GenV models.
- Inlet and Outlet Pair: Complete set includes manifold-side and dump-pipe flanges for straightforward fabrication.
- CNC Machined Edges: Smooth surfaces promote strong welds and seamless integration into custom exhaust systems.
Product Notes
- Flanges require professional TIG welding to exhaust tubing.
- Verify wastegate flange match before installation.
- Handle with care to avoid surface scratches during shipping.
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- Clean weld areas thoroughly and use proper filler rod for stainless steel.
- Compatible with standard 38mm V-band clamps sold separately.

Fabrication
Fabrication parts and materials provide the raw components needed to build, repair, and modify custom exhaust systems, turbocharger plumbing, intercooler piping, fuel system lines, oil routing, and engine bay heat management on performance and competition vehicles. Stainless steel tubing, titanium tubing, aluminum charge piping, mandrel bends, pie cuts, flanges, merge collectors, V-band clamps, O2 sensor bungs, AN fittings, PTFE hose kits, braided fuel and oil lines, heat shields, and welding supplies are the backbone of any serious custom fabrication project. Professional fabricators, race team mechanics, and advanced DIY builders who want full control over exhaust routing, charge pipe layout, or fuel system plumbing choose raw fabrication materials rather than pre-bent kits because custom fabrication allows fitment solutions that no universal kit can accommodate. Brands including Vibrant Performance, Ticon Industries, Stainless Bros, Radium Engineering, Fragola, and DEI provide th...

Flanges
Exhaust flanges are the bolted connection points where exhaust manifolds mate to downpipes, where sections of exhaust pipe join at catalytic converters and muffler inlets, and where aftermarket headers connect to factory or custom collector sections, making flange quality and correct material specification critical for maintaining leak-free exhaust connections under the extreme temperature cycling that performance exhaust systems experience. Flange warping and gasket failures at exhaust connection points are among the most common exhaust leak sources on both stock and modified vehicles, as the thermal expansion differences between the flange material and the connected pipe cause progressive face distortion over time that breaks the gasket seal. Performance exhaust builders use thick-cut mild steel, stainless steel, or titanium flanges in precise O.D. profiles matched to their pipe diameter to ensure the clamping surface remains flat through hundreds of heat cycles. This collection c...
