Flexible pipe VW interlock 45-150VW

Flexible pipe VW interlock 45-150VW

The Flexible pipe VW interlock 45-150VW is a premium stainless steel exhaust flex joint designed for Volkswagen exhaust system repair and custom stainless steel exhaust fabrication. Featuring a reinforced internal interlock liner, this model provides enhanced durability, strong resistance to exhaust pressure, and extended vibration absorption performance for petrol and diesel engines.

The internal interlock liner is the core structural feature of the Flexible pipe VW interlock 45-150VW. Unlike standard braided flex pipes that rely only on an outer stainless steel mesh, this version includes a solid interlocked inner sleeve that creates a protected internal exhaust channel. This prevents direct exhaust gas impact on the outer braid, significantly reducing internal wear and increasing service life — especially in turbocharged and high-temperature applications.

During normal vehicle operation, engine movement caused by torque shifts, acceleration, braking, and thermal expansion transfers stress to 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 45-150VW effectively compensates for engine movement while isolating vibration, protecting the entire exhaust assembly and ensuring long-term reliability.

Manufactured from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, this exhaust flex pipe offers excellent resistance to heat, oxidation, moisture, and road salt. The reinforced external stainless steel braid improves mechanical strength while maintaining the flexibility required to handle engine movement safely.

With a 45mm inner diameter and 150mm overall length, the Flexible pipe VW interlock 45-150VW provides greater flexibility and movement compensation compared to shorter versions. The extended length allows improved vibration damping, making it ideal for vehicles requiring increased flex range or where additional stress relief is necessary.

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