TOTALFLOW 2.75" TF-J59 304 Stainless Steel Lap Joint Exhaust Muffler Clamp Band-2.75 Inch Review

I haven't written a review in a long time but this product is so well made that I decided to post a review. The slip fit joint between my resonator and my muffler developed a leak. At first I was tempted to use one of the repair wraps but then I saw these clamps. I really liked the idea of using a clamp like this to make the joint solid to eliminate movement at the joint that would cause the joint to fail. The male pipe had an OD of 2 1/4" and the female pipe had a 2 1/2" OD so I chose the…

These clamps are the best! I recently installed a stainless steel exhaust system on my Titan that came with u-clamps. After snapping three of them in the process, I ordered a different brand of u-clamps. After torquing them down as hard as I could, the pipe still moved. So I took a chance on these band clamps. Wrenched them down as tight as tight can be with no snapping or stripping of the bolts and the pipes don’t move. Very impressed with the quality. Well worth the money.

The clamps fit properly with a nice clean look no leaks we’ll see how the bolts hold up through the winter Thanks for attention.

This thing worked perfectly. Couldn't get a standard clamp to hold my rusted turd mobile together. I had several cut areas where I cut the exhaust to replace my muffler and the standard clamps would allow the pipe to slip out. This this is holding it in place perfectly. Only thing to remember is that it is stainless steel. In my case i had to put a lot of pressure on it to close it and I didn't wear gloves. Couldn't feel it slipping into my skin until I wiped what i thought was oil onto my…

I used this to replace a skinny band clamp that came with the exhaust system. The skinny one wasn't sealing the joint and this one did the trick.

I don't know why it is 2 sizes, you can see the step up in the picture, I just thought it was a bump in the middle to help centering. I can't get the 2.1" side to clamp down tight enough, the pipe has torque on it and it keeps turning. It also leaks a little.

This is first time that i did a DIY exhaust work, added a resonator, the local shop want a 100$ for that job. decided to to it self. but i was a little mistrustfully about that joints, but its seals very good, i didn't used any additional sealant paste, its seals well on bare metal. Photo job in progress. Bot tighten nuts.

Extremely easy to use. Took longer to get my tools under the truck than it took to install the muffler. Much better fit and seal than the standard u-bolt clamps.

Part was easy to install. Replaced a u bolt clamp that wasn't holding an exhaust joint very tight. The totalflo clamp made the joint much more solid and seemed to quiet the exhaust a bit also.

I used two of these to put a muffler on my 1st gen Dodge Cummins with 4” exhaust, and they work exactly as they should. I like these so much more than u-bolt exhaust clamps because they keep everything straight and true while tightening. They also seal better. I think that I may never use u-bolt clamps again, except maybe to fasten hangers.

Quality Clamp & thick material, much thicker than the other Band Clamps I have bought (thicker gauge stainless steel).

Great solid product! Would recommend to anyone installing new muffler or replacing clamps on a 3” exhaust. That's my review.

This clamp was very difficult to install. While installing on a 3in pipe, I needed to removed the metal spacers that are shown in the pictures to get it even close.

Might have been user error if be to many turns however one of the two bolts snapped while tightening. I was using a half inch drive ratchet.
