CLAMP AS-V B

It works by drawing the flanges together as you tighten the T-bolt, creating a uniform clamping force around the joint. Common applications include securing exhaust bellows, turbocharger connections, and diesel particulate filter components on heavy-duty trucks. A worn or damaged clamp can cause exhaust leaks, so it's typically replaced whenever a connected component is serviced or if the old clamp is corroded, stretched, or no longer holds tension.
