Hi I need to get a new Y piece or repair the only one the only problem is it’s wrapped in a white jacket being a 1979 would this be asbestos or some other heat shield material any help appreciated
There was a y piece for sale in a job lot of parts in the classifieds on here about 6 weeks ago no jacket though
This might do it actually. Neoprene coated fibreglass cloth, doubt the y piece would exceed 120c: https://www.vitcas.com/prd/cty/high-temperature-cloth
Great that’s good to know I’ll still be careful being glass fibre , as for the new material I was going to use some fire proof material normally used in welding a little overkill.
Or a plumbers solder mat https://www.toolstation.com/solderi...rRUDE6y4QrJcvt1yhx22A1YGEuM2H5UBoC44AQAvD_BwE
I used this tape on the front pipe could work at the back https://www.amazon.co.uk/SuperFOIL-Pipe-Insulation-Foil-7-5m/dp/B0169VLBZQ
The rear Y piece is impossible to fit ( if that is what you’re on about )Make two tubes out of corrugated air pipe and cover them with foil bubble wrap before slotting them over the rear beam and into the main air pipe.
Did ours 5+ years ago, used 90mm stainless flue pipe and made 2 x 45 deg bends into a Y piece. Fitted high temp silicon hoses into heater pods. All push fit connections, sure put pics on here for someone before. Sent from my SM-A405FN using Tapatalk
Hi all, would it be possible to fit straight silicon hoses between the y piece and the heat exchangers or would they have to be flexable?
