Flexible pipe VW interlock 45-120VW

Flexible pipe VW interlock 45-120VW

The Flexible pipe VW interlock 45-120VW is a high-quality stainless steel exhaust flex joint designed for Volkswagen exhaust system repair and custom exhaust fabrication. Built with a reinforced internal interlock liner, this model ensures reliable vibration absorption, strong resistance to exhaust pressure, and long service life in both standard and turbocharged engine applications.

The internal interlock construction is the key structural advantage of the Flexible pipe VW interlock 45-120VW. Unlike standard braided flex pipes that rely only on an external stainless steel mesh, this model incorporates a solid inner interlock liner that forms a protective exhaust channel. This design prevents direct exhaust gas contact with the outer braid, reducing internal wear and significantly extending durability — particularly in diesel and turbocharged petrol engines operating at elevated temperatures and pressure levels.

During vehicle operation, engine movement caused by acceleration, braking, torque changes, and thermal expansion transfers stress throughout the exhaust system. Without a properly functioning flexible joint, this stress may lead to cracked welds, exhaust leaks, catalytic converter damage, or turbocharger strain. The Flexible pipe VW interlock 45-120VW effectively compensates for engine movement and isolates vibration, helping to protect surrounding exhaust components and maintain system integrity.

Manufactured from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, this exhaust flex pipe provides excellent resistance to heat, oxidation, moisture, and road salt exposure. The reinforced outer stainless steel braid enhances mechanical durability while maintaining the flexibility required for proper movement compensation.

With a 45mm inner diameter and 120mm overall length, the Flexible pipe VW interlock 45-120VW offers a balanced solution between compact size and effective vibration damping. It provides greater flexibility than shorter versions while remaining suitable for installations where moderate space is available. This makes it ideal for OEM flex section replacement and custom stainless steel exhaust fabrication projects.

Professional TIG or MIG welding installation is recommended to ensure correct alignment, secure mounting, and leak-free performance.
