Seal a leaky exhaust joint and quiet the pipe connection with the FEL-PRO Exhaust Pipe Flange Gasket 61559. It installs at the converter-to-muffler and intermediate-pipe-to-muffler flange connections and drops in as a direct-fit replacement across a wide range of GM trucks and vans — including the 1996-1999 Chevrolet C1500, 1996-2000 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2007-2013 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2007-2013 GMC Sierra 1500, 1996-2002 Chevrolet Express 2500, and 1996-2002 GMC Savana 2500. With 63 applications in total, see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
Sealing location: fits the converter-to-muffler and intermediate-pipe-to-muffler flange joints.
Function: seals the bolted pipe-flange connection to help contain exhaust gases and prevent leaks at the joint.
Signs it may need replacing: a ticking or hissing exhaust leak at the flange, an exhaust smell, or a joint disturbed during pipe service.
An exhaust flange gasket sits between two bolted pipe flanges, where heat cycling and corrosion gradually degrade the seal and let gases escape. If a worn gasket is the source of your leak, replacing it whenever the connection is opened helps restore a proper seal.
