Where to buy V-Band flanges in Hamilton

Postby FANGIN » Tue Dec 15, 2009 9:19 am

I need a 3 inch V-band flange & clamp, preferably today.

Been to TWL & they only do 2.5 or 3.5 inch.
Lightening Motorsport don't do them.
Diesel & Turbo don't do them.

Any ideas?

V flange is one half of what the V band clamps on to. A V-clanp is a circular fitting, much like a hose clamy, but has a V groove in the centre of it. It is used to clamp two circulat flanges like this / \ together. Hard to explain without pictures.
