Detailed Description

Mahle F7269 is an exhaust pipe flange gasket engineered for vehicles that use a ring-type E flange seal with a 1 3/4 in. I.D. application.

Compatible With Chevrolet C1500, GMC C1500, Chevrolet K1500, GMC K1500, Chevrolet P30, GMC P3500, and related Chevrolet Express 2500 and GMC Savana 3500 exhaust flange applications.

• Noise from a failing exhaust joint
• Soot marks around the flange connection
• Loss of sealing after heat cycling and vibration
• Service replacement on GM truck, van, and SUV exhaust systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Inspect the flange surfaces for warping, corrosion, and carbon buildup before installation. Clean both mating surfaces thoroughly so the gasket can seat evenly. Verify the application uses a ring type E gasket with a 1 3/4 in. I.D. and confirm the flange style against the removed part before assembly. For fitment reference, this part fits 1982-2004 Chevrolet and GMC truck, van, and SUV applications including 1982-1999 Chevrolet P30, 1994-1999 Chevrolet Tahoe, and 2002-2004 Hummer H1.
