FS: 3" V-Band flanges (Mild Steel)

[Kenneth]

$15 each for members, $20 for non members

Note: This is ONE flange only, no clamp. If you look around you will find this is a very good price :)

I wanted a few but the price was just too expensive to buy them. However because I know an engineer I got a few made up... Around 60 of them :P So you could say I have a few more than I need.

Ill get some in a couple of days... didn't bring them home as they are quite messy (sprayed them with something to stop them rusting)

As I said, I have a couple more than I need /pan

Yep, no worries :) I don't think they sell particularly fast so shouldn't be any shortage in supply for a while.

V-Band flanges are generally used for exhausts and turbos.

They have many benefits over standard 2 or 3 bolt flanges such as they don't have bolts (they are clamped with a clamp much like a T-Bolt silicone hose clamp... look it up on google :) ) and so are quicker to set and remove, they seal without gaskets (yep, no gaskets), they do not require any orientation (flange bolt holes matching) and because the clamping pressure is applied radially around the entire flange they are stronger.

Only downside of course is that generally they are much more expensive. (Cheapest I could find was NZ$100 for a set of 2 flanges and 1 clamp)

Because of this, I thought I might as well get a few made up.

Anyway, as usual Google is your friend.
