358.03.0007 Flexible Pipe for Volvo and Renault

What does an exhaust flexible pipe do?

This exhaust flexible pipe serves as a critical component within the exhaust system, designed to absorb engine vibrations and accommodate thermal expansion. By providing flexibility between rigid sections of the exhaust line, it prevents stress on engine mounts and manifold connections, ensuring long-term durability for heavy commercial vehicle systems.

Compatible vehicles and engines

This specific component is engineered for high-performance fitment in various heavy commercial vehicle models. It is compatible with Renault Trucks Magnum (DXi12) as well as a wide range of Volvo trucks including the FH series (D12C, D12D, D16C), FM series (D10A, D12C, D12D), FL series (TD102, TD103, D10A, TD122, TD123), and NH12 (D12C). It is also suitable for Volvo NL series, VHD, VNL, B10 series, and B12 models.

Installation and maintenance

For proper installation, technicians should ensure that the Ø 115 mm diameter and 315 mm length align perfectly with the existing exhaust geometry. It is recommended to inspect the connection points for any signs of soot or heat damage during replacement to ensure a secure seal. Proper mounting prevents premature wear of the flexible element.

Selection guidance

When selecting replacement parts, always verify compatibility with the specific engine code, such as the D12 or D16 series, to guarantee correct fitment within the exhaust assembly.
