Header Tabs and Tethers

Header Tabs and Tethers are specialized components used to secure exhaust headers and exhaust manifolds, ensuring proper alignment and reducing stress on the engine’s exhaust system. Header tabs, including racing header tabs and header collector tabs, help maintain the positioning of headers and prevent movement that can lead to leaks, cracks, or other damage under high-performance or racing conditions. Exhaust tethers provide additional stability, keeping the exhaust system securely mounted while accommodating thermal expansion and vibration.

By properly installing header tabs and tethers, headers can maintain optimal fitment, improve durability, and ensure consistent exhaust flow. These components are essential for both performance and longevity, protecting the exhaust system while enhancing engine efficiency and reliability in demanding driving or racing environments.
