AP Exhaust 641361 Catalytic Converter - Front Right

Direct-Fit Catalytic Converter for Ford, Mazda, and Mercury

AP Exhaust 641361 is a Federal / EPA direct-fit catalytic converter built for exact OE dimensions and fitment. It uses a stainless steel body, a ceramic substrate, and a direct-fit pre-cat design to support proper exhaust flow on the listed Ford Escape, Mazda Tribute, and Mercury Mariner applications.

AP Exhaust 641361 is engineered for the firewall-side position on select 2009-2012 Ford Escape, 2009-2011 Mazda Tribute, and 2009-2011 Mercury Mariner models. This part cross-references Ford AL8Z-5E212-B for the same application.

• Federal / EPA direct-fit catalytic converter
• Federal / EPA direct-fit pre-cat configuration
• Stainless steel body for corrosion resistance
• Ceramic substrate material
• 1 O2 sensor port
• 3-bolt welded flange inlet
• 2-bolt welded flange outlet
• Includes inlet gasket and outlet gasket
• Overall length: 9.5 inches

Detailed Description

Built to OE dimensions, AP Exhaust 641361 is a direct-fit catalytic converter for the firewall side of the exhaust system. The ARISTO substrate chemistry is used to support efficient catalyst loading, while AP Exhaust’s automated manufacturing and spinner-welded construction help maintain consistent fitment and dimensional accuracy. For buyers searching for a 2009-2012 Ford Escape catalytic converter, a 2009-2011 Mazda Tribute firewall-side converter, or a 2009-2011 Mercury Mariner direct-fit pre-cat, this part matches the listed application data.

What This Part Helps Address

• Failed catalytic converter efficiency codes
• Exhaust restriction from a deteriorated substrate
• Check engine light concerns related to catalyst performance
• Exhaust leaks at the inlet or outlet flange area
• Fitment issues from a non-OE-shaped replacement converter

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify the firewall-side position before ordering.
• Confirm emissions requirements for your vehicle and state before installation.
• This part is listed for Federal and California emissions applications, but it is not for sale or use on vehicles licensed in CA, CO, ME, or NY.
• Check O2 sensor port location and flange orientation against the original converter.
• Use the included inlet and outlet gaskets during installation.

Quality Assurance

AP Exhaust uses advanced manufacturing methods, including automated workstations, spinner welding equipment, and high-speed production lines, to build converters to exact OE dimensions and fitment. That process supports consistent construction and repeatable installation on the listed Ford Escape, Mazda Tribute, and Mercury Mariner applications.
