Detailed Product Description

Walker 31365 is a replacement exhaust flange gasket for sealing pipe-to-pipe exhaust joints where a donut gasket is specified. Its graphoil and wire mesh construction is selected for exhaust service, while the 1.75-inch inside diameter, 2.250-inch outside diameter, and 0.56-inch thickness provide the dimensions needed for proper flange alignment and sealing. This part number is used across multiple import exhaust repair applications, including 1993-1997 Volkswagen Golf with Canada Emissions, 1993-1995 Volkswagen Jetta with Canada Emissions, and several BMW, Audi, and Mercedes-Benz exhaust connections. Walker 31365 is also referenced by part number 31365 in catalog searches for exhaust pipe flange gasket replacement.

Common Repair Uses

• Exhaust leak at a flange connection
• Noise from a worn or crushed donut gasket
• Soot marks or odor near the exhaust joint
• Failed seal after exhaust pipe service
• Replacement during muffler, resonator, or converter connection repair

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify flange style, gasket dimensions, and vehicle-specific notes before installation. This part is listed for positions including N/A, converter to resonator assembly, converter to muffler assembly, and resonator to muffler assembly, so match the original exhaust joint on the vehicle. Confirm fitment details for applications such as 1989-1993 BMW 535i, 1984-1987 Audi 4000, and 1993-1997 Volkswagen Golf before assembly. Clean the sealing surfaces thoroughly so the gasket seats evenly and the flange can clamp the joint without distortion.
