Automotive
components in
the exhaust system

In the exhaust gas sector, decoupling elements of various designs are used as conduits. They absorb vibration, thermal expansion and engine movements.

• universal applications
• with round or oval cross-section
• temperature and corrosion-resistant by suitable selection of materials
• available in all common connecting diameters

Hose joints are used for the decoupling of engine motions and vibrations.

• with round or oval cross-section
• flow routing through stripwound hose as liner or flame tube
• on request, including connector parts, e.g. flange

Structure-borne noise decoupling elements consist of a short self-supporting compact bellows, which optionally has an external wire cushion for damping purposes. They are used in the front pipe area for decoupling high-frequency vibrations and for compensating installation tolerances as well as for absorbing thermomechanics.

• multi-ply bellows
• with wire mesh ring as vibration damper
• flow routing via flame tube
• on request, including customer-specific connectors, e.g. V-band clamp connection

Stripwound hoses with interlocked profile or corrugation profile are frequently used in exhaust gas systems for light and heavy lorries, buses, construction machinery or fork lifts.

• adequately technically gas-tight, low leakages
• insensitive to torsion movements
