From the thermal viewpoint often the weak point in an otherwise finely-tuned exhaust system: compensators, hoses, and bellows. They eliminate the various axial and lateral forces between components within the exhaust system and can be found on nearly every engine. The challenge is to close these last gaps in the thermal system with flexible and high-performance elements.
The fully-enclosed and insulated metallic compensators from Thermamax fulfil this function, can be integrated within the overall system, and can reduce temperature-loss in a sensitive system.
