Exhaust Removal and Installation Tool

Brief Overview

This exhaust removal and installation tool is purpose-built for mechanics and technicians who need reliable, non-destructive access to exhaust components. The padded C-shaped head cradles exhaust pipes and manifolds securely while the protective rubber lining prevents marring, denting, or scratching—critical when working with precision-welded exhaust systems. Whether you're performing routine exhaust work or tackling challenging installations, this tool delivers consistent performance across a wide range of applications. For shops managing complete exhaust service operations, pair this with an exhaust spring clamp removal tool to handle VAG-specific fastening systems efficiently.

Key Features

• Padded C-Shaped Cradle: Black protective rubber or plastic lining bonded to the inside of the head prevents surface damage to exhaust pipes and manifolds
• Zinc/Chrome Plated Metal Body: Stamped sheet metal construction with durable protective finish resists corrosion and oxidation
• Knurled Grip Handle: Diamond-pattern knurling on the tubular shaft ensures secure, non-slip handling even with greasy hands
• Welded Construction: Solid joint between the shaft and C-head guarantees stability and longevity under working stress
• Mounting Tab with Pivot Hole: Small hole at the base of the C-head permits fixture mounting or attachment of extension handles for increased leverage
• Notched Design Detail: Small keyed slot at the open end of the C aids in positioning and securing exhaust components during removal or installation
