101040

Grasshopper Part #101040

Name: Gasket – Exhaust Flange (Kubota)
Type: OEM Gasket for Grasshopper mowers equipped with Kubota engines

Description & Function

• This is the exhaust-flange gasket used between the exhaust manifold and pipe (or muffler) on Grasshopper machines with Kubota engine configurations.

• It ensures a tight seal in the exhaust system, preventing exhaust leaks, maintaining exhaust back‐pressure, and reducing noise and emissions.

• A failed gasket can lead to cracks in the exhaust manifold, louder operation, or hot spot damage to surrounding components.

Key Features

• OEM specification for Grasshopper machines: proper material, thickness and heat-resistance for the job.

• Designed to match the flange geometry (bolt spacing, port size) typical to the Kubota-engine exhaust on the Grasshopper machine.

• The gasket is sold 1 each per pack.

Service / Sales Notes

• When replacing, inspect the manifold flange and exhaust pipe flange surfaces for warping, corrosion or damage; a new gasket alone may not fix exhaust leak if flange is damaged.
