Turbosmart WG45 Alloy Inlet Weld Flange - Universal
The Turbosmart WG45 Alloy Inlet Weld Flange provides a direct weld solution for Turbosmart WG45 wastegate inlets on any turbocharged vehicle. Precision machined for exact fit it connects your manifold or up-pipe to the wastegate via V-band clamp for reliable exhaust flow. Crafted for high-performance builds this flange ensures durable performance under extreme conditions.
Key Features
- 6061 Billet Alloy Construction: Lightweight yet strong material resists corrosion and high heat for long-term reliability in turbo systems
- CNC Precision Machining: Ensures flawless alignment with WG45 wastegate inlet for smooth V-band clamp seating and zero leaks
- Custom Fabrication Ready: Weld directly to exhaust manifold or up-pipe enabling tailored inlet designs without flow restrictions
- Heat and Pressure Tolerant: Handles boost pressures over 30 PSI maintaining seal integrity in demanding race applications
- Universal WG45 Compatibility: Fits all Turbosmart WG45 series wastegates including standard internal and dual configurations
Product Notes
- Professional TIG welding required for secure attachment to stainless or mild steel piping
- Inspect V-band clamp condition prior to assembly for optimal sealing
- Handle with care to protect machined sealing surfaces during shipping and storage
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- TIG weld in place using 304 or 321 stainless filler rod matching manifold material
- Compatible with Turbosmart 45mm 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...
