Boost Products 304 Stainless Steel Bellows Assemblies feature a directional, smooth flow solid liner. Available in 1.5" to 3.5" I.D Bellows type flexible joints are best used in situations where movement is in compression or extension of the joint as opposed to side to side movements. With this in mind the bellows type joints are best suited to wastegate pipes that return to the downpipe, as the movement is caused mostly through heat expansion and contraction. For movement such as isolating an exhaust system from the engine, see the braided type flexible joints. Made solely out of Stainless Steel, Gas Proof, extremely sturdy, for Downpipes, Wastegate Pipes This compensator has an inner pipe that keeps the gas flow straight and avoids the direct heat to the outer flex waves. But the inner pipe makes the inner diameter smaller, where we recommend using always one size bigger than at the standard compensators. The best purpose is the construction of Wastegate pipes, downpipes, exhaust systems or manifold construction. The BOOST products Flex Pipe Compensators are extremely resilient but still flexible. Completely made of Stainless Steel. IMPORTANT: A compensator compensates like the name says expansions caused by temperature. For example Wastegate pipes after the turbo manifold or downpipes. It serves to compensate the expansions on these spots to prevent cracking of these pipes. It is not in the position to absorb heavy load and is thereby not suitable as a Flex Pipe substitute. Here we recommend a reinforced Flex Pipe from our product portfolio. NOTE: At all messurements are slight differences possible because of production procedures.
