What is an “Add-On” Spark Arrester?
” Add-On” Spark Arresters are added onto an existing muffler exhaust system. They are typically used on Off-Highway-Vehicles. Add-on spark arresters must have a method for removal of accumulated carbon particles. Such as a cleanout plug, snap ring, removable end cap or a removable end cleanout. A removable end cleanout is usually secured to the muffler by a retaining band and/or several screws. In order to empty out the accumulated carbon particles with a removable end cleanout, the entire add-on must be removed by loosening the retaining band or screws, to shake out the carbon particles.
