Description
If you’ve ever found water in your exhaust pipe after a storm, you know why this rain cap is essential. Water sitting in an exhaust system can cause serious engine damage if it gets sucked back into the cylinders during startup, and that’s exactly what happens when rain pools in an unprotected vertical stack. This heavy-duty galvanized rain cap keeps moisture and critters out while letting exhaust flow freely when you’re running.
What You’re Getting
- Galvanized steel construction that won’t rust out like cheaper painted caps do
- Precision-balanced flapper opens with minimal back pressure from your exhaust
- Self-closing design automatically seals tight when the engine stops
- Simple clamp-on installation – no drilling or permanent modifications needed
- Weighted design prevents sticking even after sitting through winter
Built for Real Farm Work
This cap fits 3-inch outer diameter exhaust pipes, which you’ll find on a wide range of Ford/New Holland tractors from the classic Major series through modern utility models, plus Massey Ferguson 2600 series and many others. Whether your tractor spends time parked outside or in an open shed, any exposed exhaust pipe is an invitation for water, snow, and nesting animals to cause problems.
Made to Last
The hot-dip galvanized coating stands up to years of weather without the rust-through problems you get with painted caps. The flapper design uses a weighted system instead of springs, so it won’t stick open or closed after exposure to moisture and temperature swings. The clamp band maintains its grip through engine vibration and thermal cycling.
Good to Know
Installation takes just minutes – slide the cap over your exhaust outlet and tighten the clamp bolt. Position it so the flapper hangs straight down for the best seal. Make sure you have at least 3 inches of clearance above for the flapper to swing open fully. A drop of penetrating oil on the hinge pin once in a while keeps everything moving smoothly through the seasons.
