Porosity Level
Customers have mixed opinions on the porosity level of the GEARWRENCH Exhaust and Tailpipe Expander 1-13/16" to 2-1/2". While some users report that it works great for expanding exhausts, others mention issues with porosity and poor metal quality. Some customers suggest lubricating the tool before use to improve performance.
