Review on πŸ”§ Lisle 32750 Tailpipe Expander: Efficient and Versatile Performance Tool for Exhaust Systems by Drew Panah

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Bare bolt fits exhaust pipes and tips

When I first used the expander it worked well, bit off bit by bit and treat everything with mobil 1 syntec lube. I was 2 turns from completing my exhaust extension (aluminized 16 gauge) and the bolt failed. I knocked out the tool, disassembled the tube and found the following (picture), the thread was completely stripped from the bolt. I had high hopes for this thing as my grandfather used Lisle tools for over 30 years. This was my first new instrument that I bought and it was already broken. A stronger bolt would make this expander ideal.

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Volume
