Ace Race Parts Mild Steel/Stainless Steel Combination V-Band Assemblies are precision CNC machined in an ISO 9001 certified facility and feature a 304 Stainless Steel V-Band Clamp, a "Male" Mild Steel V-Band Flange, and a "Female" 304 Stainless V-Band Flange. Stainless Steel V-Band Clamps and Flanges are an affordable and durable type of clamping system that is suited for high performance automotive, diesel, marine and industrial applications.
Our "Male/Female" interlocking style V-Band Flanges utilize a interlocking seating surface to ensure a leak-free seal without the need for a gasket and provides an easy way to align the flanges during installation. The interlocking seating surface, the area where the two flanges meet within the clamp, makes fitment and installation a breeze even when in the tightest of areas.
The weld side of our 304 Stainless and Mild Steel V-Band Flanges are CNC machined with a counterbore to allow the matching tube size material to slip into the V-Band Flange and be welded in place with the proper alignment. The counterbore is machined to be 0.065" wide and allows for the inside diameter (ID) of 16ga wall thickness tubing to align perfectly with the ID of the V-Band Flange without any restrictions or reductions.
Each Mild Steel/Stainless Steel V-Band Assembly includes one (1) 304 Stainless Standard T-Bolt style V-Band Clamp and one (1) "Male" Interlocking Mild Steel V-Band Flange, and one (1) "Female" Interlocking 304 Stainless V-Band Flange.

Please note: Our V-Band clamps are supplied with a metal lock nut and a non-locking hex nut. The metal lock nut is a locking-style nut and is not intended to be used during mock-up. Attempting to thread, remove, and re-thread the lock nut may cause damage to the "T-Bolt" section of the clamp. In some cases, excessive force can damage and/or break the "T-Bolt" section of the clamp. If you intend to use our clamps during the mock-up process please use a non-locking hex nut.
Ace Race Parts is not responsible for damage caused to our clamps due to the use of the locking-style nut during mock-up or removal. The thread pitch of our hex nuts, lock nuts and the threaded portion of the "T-Bolt" section of the clamp is 1/4"-28 (fine thread).
Note: The photo of the three types of nuts includes a nylon lock nut. This type of nut is not always supplied with our v-bands. The two main types of nuts supplied with each v-band assembly or clamp is the metal non-locking hex nut (finish hex nut) and the metal lock nut. If you would like a nylon lock nut to be supplied with your order please contact us.
