Centek Vernatube Exhaust Hose

Centek Vernatube is a fiberglass wet exhaust tubing, also sold as exhaust hose or exhaust tube. It is made for marine wet exhaust systems. The tubing is filament-wound from corrosion-resistant, high-temperature, fire-retardant resin and E-glass. It is used to build and connect the runs between mufflers, elbows, and flexible exhaust hose.

Key Features:

• Fire-retardant construction: The resin-impregnated glass filament tubing is formulated for high-temperature use. Centek states it exceeds the self-extinguishing class under ASTM D-635 and UL94V-0.
• Smooth, resin-rich inner surface: This keeps restriction low for exhaust gases and cooling water flowing through the tube.
• Precise outside diameter: The controlled OD makes it easier to connect to mating ports, marine exhaust hose, and flexible joints.
• Corrosion resistant: The materials hold up in hot, wet exhaust service and help the components last.
• Strong clamping surface: The tube has enough strength for hose clamps and a semi-smooth surface for a tight seal.
• Made in the USA

Installation Notes: Use Vernatube in wet exhaust systems only. Mount it far enough downstream of the water-injection point that it is not exposed to temperatures above 250°F. Do not install it where structural loads from the vessel could be transferred to the tube, because that stress can damage it.

Centek Vernatube is made by a marine exhaust specialist and is a dependable choice for new wet exhaust installations and replacements. Centek's standard fiberglass exhaust products carry a five-year warranty.
