Walker 35794 Exhaust Clamp

I bought 2 of these but didn't notice I needed a third so I quickly got the third from a local store. The third one I picked up basically fell apart on install where the 2 purchased from Amazon looked perfect still. Would recommend these.

They work well, nothing fancy but they are sturdy!

Clamped like grandmas cheeks

My husband said perfect, quality was good.

I used this to construct a CAGE for the catalytic converter on my motorhome. I used 20’ of 3/8” stainless cable and wrapped it around the CAT, threading it through the frame twice and clamping it to the 3” diameter exhaust pipe at each end of the CAT. This was my $50 makeshift alternative to purchasing a CAT CAGE for over $400. My method of securing each end of the cable with these two clamps was similar to how it’s secured on the CAT CAGE. These clamps were easy to install, and they provide a secure cable attachment. This will not prevent a thief from stealing my CAT. However, cutting the cable or these clamps is an additional task that they’ll have to accomplish before walking away with my valuable converter. I doubt they’ll have the wrenches to remove the nuts on the clamps; I can’t imagine that they’d think those necessary in their nefarious endeavor. The CAGE might make them consider the additional time required to pilfer my property, and weigh this against the burden of incarceration. For those of you not in the know, catalytic converter theft is rampant and proliferating at a frightening pace. The thieves use a battery powered sawzall to cut the exhaust pipe, commonly leaving the “exhausted” blades behind. I’ve heard too many stories of people going into a store or restaurant and returning as little as 20 minutes later to hear the ROAR of their engine when they start their car. It happened to my good friend in front of his house in a neighborhood in Olympia, Washington. As an added deterrent, I etched my VIN number into the converter and painted the entire thing orange. While some people say these methods do nothing to prevent theft, I disagree. It is obvious that some Catalytic Converter thieves are selling these for dimes-on-the-dollar to fences. I seriously doubt that any fence is going to accept a converter with a VIN number etched in it.
