Detailed Description

Mahle F32679 is an exhaust pipe flange gasket engineered for specific 2.25-inch exhaust connections on Ford and Lincoln vehicles. It is used at locations such as the catalytic converter to exhaust pipe, catalytic converter to Y-pipe, and flexible pipe to underbody catalytic converter joints, depending on the application. If you are servicing a Ford Explorer exhaust flange, Ford Edge catalytic converter connection, or Lincoln MKS exhaust joint, this gasket matches the listed OE-style dimensions and sealing format.

The multi-layered steel gasket material helps maintain a consistent seal at the flange interface, while the .025-inch wall thickness supports proper compression at the joint. Part number F32679 is built for the exact applications shown in the fitment data and is a practical replacement when the original exhaust seal is worn, leaking, or damaged.

What This Gasket Helps Fix

• Exhaust leaks at the flange connection
• Noise from a leaking catalytic converter or Y-pipe joint
• Soot marks around the exhaust pipe flange
• Loss of sealing at a 2.25-inch exhaust junction
• Failed gasket material from heat cycling and corrosion

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the flange style, bolt hole count, and 2.25-inch inside diameter before installation. Clean both mating surfaces thoroughly so the new gasket seats evenly, and inspect the flange for warping or corrosion that could affect sealing. This part is listed for specific Ford Explorer, Ford Edge, Ford Flex, Ford Taurus, Ford F-150, Ford Fusion, Ford Mustang, and Lincoln applications, so confirm the exact exhaust location against the vehicle notes before ordering.

Quality Assurance

Mahle gaskets are positioned as OEM-standard sealing products used by OEMs and technicians worldwide. F32679 follows that OE-style sealing approach for the listed Ford and Lincoln exhaust applications.
