Anyone used exhaust wadding?


Recommended Posts

As above anyone used it before?

I've found this one on eBay, it says it expands with the heat so it won't blow out, I just want to reduce the noise slightly.

You get 400g 1 meter for £12

Yer A few times mate but only on bikes , Make sure you pack it tight as when it ages a bit it might blow out although it says it will not lol Ive had this a few times on bike silencers but not frm tweeks !

Its easy on a bike silencer They come apart, Im not sure how you can pack a car one as there solid and welded shut, Only way I could think is put a pipe in it and pack around it so you still have a hole through it .

I could do the mid box easy-ish lol I could do it when I fit the new cat and get some of the rolled stuff and push it in with a pole, the back box I'd just have to push in from the tail pipe, if I use that acoustic boa stuff it expands with best so hopefully wouldn't blow out.

as Paul has said its a cut & pack then re-weld job as the pipe itself isn't bunged up, just the box the pipe runs through ( the pipe has lots of holes in it in the box)

& you fill the void between pipe & the outer skin of the box..
