Lambretta Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 I noticed that the zinc plated ones on my car are quite rusty and I want to replace them with full stainless Steel ones. Anybody know what diameter I need for both cat and main silencer covers? Thanks Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Cornford Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Hi Roger Welcome, and I hope you are enjoying life with your new 7. Unfortunately I believe you will need two different sizes, as the Cat and Exhaust have different diameters. Well at least they had on my Roadsport 125 There is a main distributor in London, whose price list can be accessed from their website I did speak to them a couple of years ago, and they were surprised that CC were using the zinc plated ones for this application. I am not as the Stainless steel price per clip could range from £7.60 to £12.00 depending on spec, whereas Zinc plated are about £3.00 each. Each car would need 3 of one size for exhaust and 2 of one size for the cat. Bulk buy anyone? ps probably best to actually measure your car for the diameter, as who knows there might be inconsistencies.

Lambretta Posted May 23, 2011 Author Share Posted May 23, 2011 Hi Steve Many thanks for the reply. When I get a minute (and remember before the engine is hot!) I will get a tape measure and measure the circumference on both parts as I believe that these are sometimes sold by length. I can always divide by Pi for the diameter If I come across reasonably priced singles I will let you know! Cheers Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Hughes Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Hi Roger / Steve You need 140-160mm Stainless Hose clips for the Sigma silencer - I have used these in the past. EBay Link for hose clips John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
