If the ones you buy for a bucket of money are not hot to the touch why do they have metal shrouds on them. I have yet to see a coach
damaged by an exhaust pipe. Using their idea I fabricated my own and it is sturdier than the ones described here. Seems like the
consumer has to come up with creative ways to fasten the dang thing to their coach using suction cups, bungie cords and whatever.
If they are going to charge $150+ for some plastic tubing and a few bent pieces of conduit you would think they would have a decent
way to secure it. I have 40 bucks in mine, ran it for 3 hours and the outside temp of the pipe never went above 130 degrees. The black
pipe laying in the rack behind the barn is darn near that with this blazing sun. I used white. I like it, I will use the saved 100 bucks for a steak dinner
when i leave vegas after the race and maybe hit a quarter machine At the border.....:0 :)
THe metal shrouds are at the lower portion that actually contact the exhaust pipe obviously that transition piping is hot. However as the pipe rises it is cool to the touch.
