🔧 BLACKHORSE-RACING 2.5 Inch Universal Heavy Duty Stainless Steel Double Braid Flex Pipe - 4 Inch Length Review

Great product for my exhaust system. Really heavy product. I will be using this again to build more custom exhaust systems.

Used to replace an LS Foxbody turbo and fits perfectly. The quality of the metal exceeded all expectations. Good value for money

Excellent for this price, well welded. The missing sprocket is because they don't have the 2.5" ID listed. I had to buy a tube expander to fit my 2.5" tube.

Mesh on the outside and ribbed flexible screen/piping on the inside which I think is the pro for strength and durability. Will welding be easy? will have to wait. Overall I would say 5/5 for an overall product. The only question I can ask is if this 3" x 4" is long enough for enough exhaust flex compared to a slightly longer one, but I wanted a smaller profile, which is exactly what it offers.

I bought this to replace a faulty flex section on my 3800 engine downpipe. It was quite difficult to remove the old one but the new one just slides on and welds very easily! I've been welding with a cheap flux cored welder that I use for all my exhaust work and it went fine with no burns. I would recommend trying this option.

Worked as advertised. The main reason I chose this one was that there was no fabric inside. I bought two to build my exhaust system. This is a good budget-flexible connection, but there are still downsides. One end of one of the joints had a few strands of webbing sticking out about 1/4 inch, but it didn't matter much. If you are building a high end exhaust I would go with a bellows connection from a bright company or similar, but if you are replacing a stock exhaust or just need a flexible…

Even though they aren't stainless steel and the only stainless steel on them is wire mesh it's still a good product. The thickness of the material was good but welding was a nightmare for a beginner due to the layered construction. If you know a good TIG welder then your kit is not stainless steel but aluminized steel with stainless steel mesh. Also, some of the other braided flex hoses didn't have corrugation on the inside, this one has nice heavy corrugation so I'd say it's worth it for the…

They left out their welds, one full length for the bellows assembly and a spot weld on the other side for the braid. In the photos, the cat has an inner diameter of 2.5 inches. The same applies to flexible pipes. You can see the 2.5" OD adapter does not fit the flex pipe and faucets. On the cat sits tight and normal. The photo shows adapters of different lengths. I've tried many ways of inserting various 2.5" OD parts into flexible tubing, one of which resulted in equipment damage and the…

I bought a 2.5" x 4" flex hose. A typical 2.5 inch stainless steel exhaust should fit into them for a good overlap and weld. However, their internal size was a few thousand inches under 2.5 (about 2.495), so any exhaust pipes that are 2.5 or slightly larger (one of mine was 2.505) will not fit. Even with some deburring and creating a nice bevel, I removed some of the material around my exhaust pipe with a paddle wheel. I chose not to attempt to modify the coiled tubing because the components…
