V-band Kits
A V-band kit, often referred to as a V-band clamp and flange kit, is an assembly of components used in various applications, particularly in the automotive and industrial sectors. This type of connection is commonly used in exhaust systems, turbochargers, intercoolers, and other components where a secure and easily detachable joint is required.
Here are the key components typically found in a V-band kit:
| V-Band Flanges | These are circular or semi-circular pieces that are welded to the ends of the pipes or components you want to join. They have a protruding lip that fits into the V-band clamp. |
| V-Band Clamps | These are designed to hold the flanges together, creating a tight and leak-free connection. V-band clamps are typically equipped with a tensioning bolt that can be tightened to create the necessary pressure for a secure joint. |
| Fasteners | The tensioning bolt or fastener is used to tighten the V-band clamp around the flanges, creating a sealed connection. |
| Gaskets | Some V-band kits include gaskets made of heat-resistant and durable materials. These gaskets help create a reliable seal between the two flanges, reducing the risk of leaks. |

Product came in earlier than expected and is made out of high quality materials. SPELAB hasn't let me down yet!!
The product installed perfectly high-quality superior part. For my 2022 f350. Coolant reroute kit.
Everything works great all parts fit hangers fit have pictures if needed
This is a really nice set up inexpensive but well-made. Make sure you use 1/4 inch drive and torque wrench, if you get the half socket 10mm and multi size extensions even better it’ll make getting those two back bolts easy
Makes truck breathe better and will definitely blow your y bridge out so do that while you’re in there looks great and fits up pretty good not perfect
Installed this SPELAB EGR Throttle Valve Delete on my 6.7 Cummins and the fitment was perfect. The kit was well made, installation was straightforward, and all the necessary parts were included. Everything lined up as it should and the truck runs great. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a quality replacement component.
I originally had the Banks Monster Ram intake with grid heater delete, and costed $1200. Recently I decided to give Spelab a try for their 3.5” pusher style intake with grid heater delete. Fraction of the price and performs the same. Only regret I have was my purchase of Banks.
Great product
Good product fast sipping was not that bad of a job
Nicely done ✅
Easy installation and everything fit perfectly. The kit is well-made, comes with the necessary components, and worked as expected. Shipping was fast and the quality exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable EGR delete kit.
Very impressed with the quality of the cooler. Couldn’t find any instructions for the install. However, I was able to figure it out and plan to post a video for anyone else who may need help with the install.
Installed this on my 2015 6.7 Powerstroke and everything fit perfectly. Quality parts, straightforward install, and noticeable improvement in engine temps and reliability. Would definitely recommend this kit to anyone doing an EGR delete.
Installed on a 2019 Ram cab and chassis with no issues. Fitment was good, quality looks solid, and throttle response feels better. Definitely recommend this intake horn/grid heater upgrade.
Its worked perfectly so far. Make sure to buy one that is the correct size and that there is room for it. The motor is larger then I expected but made it work and ive used it everytime I drive
Frequently Asked Questions
A V-band kit is a precision exhaust connection using interlocking male and female flanges secured by a high-tensile steel V-shaped clamp. It provides a leak-free seal at higher clamping forces than traditional U-bolt clamps, handles rapid heat cycles without loosening, and allows quick removal without cutting. V-band kits are the standard connection method for turbo outlets, DPF delete junctions, and performance headers on diesel trucks.
Match the V-band size to your exhaust pipe's outer diameter. SPELAB V-band kits are available in 2.0", 2.25", and 2.5" sizes. Measure your pipe OD with a caliper—if your downpipe is 3", you need a 3" V-band assembly, not a 2.5". Mismatched sizing is the number one installation mistake. Note that some turbo outlets use specific flange patterns (not just diameter), so confirm both the pipe size and the mating flange type before ordering.
Stainless steel V-band clamps resist corrosion, maintain clamping force under repeated heat cycles, and won't rust solid in wet or salted road conditions. SPELAB V-band kits use 304 stainless steel construction. For a daily-driven diesel in any climate, stainless is worth the small price premium. For race-only vehicles where weight matters, mild steel saves cost but sacrifices corrosion resistance—stick with stainless for anything that sees regular street use.
Inspect V-band clamps at every major service interval (every oil change or annual). Signs of wear include visible scoring on the clamp band, a loose feel at the flange joint, or an exhaust leak (his near the connection). Under normal street use, quality stainless V-bands last 5–10 years. In heavy towing or racing applications with frequent heat cycling, replace every 2–3 years as a preventive measure to avoid a mid-trip exhaust leak.
Yes. V-band connections are designed for bolt-up installation—welding is not required. The interlocking flanges bolt together with the V-band clamp, creating a secure seal without any cutting or welding. This makes V-band kits ideal for DIY fabricators who want a professional-grade connection that can be removed for maintenance. For turbo-to-downpipe connections on the 6.4L or 6.7L Powerstroke, V-band kits let you swap components without a torch or welding equipment.
