Still looking for a flange

For the life of me, I can not find this flange. I need a couple of 2.5" dia flange. This flange takes a donut gasket and uses a compression type clamp to hold everything together. Anyone know what the technical term is for this is? Here's a few pictures of what I am talking about.

That looks like mild steel, heck I think I can make one for you, how long do you want it, and don't say for a long time as you want to keep it

For that matter, any REAL good muffler shop should be able to make one for you.

Chad you think you can make me about 6 of them? It can be mild steel, but I was hoping for stainless steel. Do you have the equipment to make them? They would need to be the exact size as the ones on the Diablo headers or rear exhaust.

You need some new muffler bearings!

If they are just a piece of straight pipe with the flange on them, I think that should not be a problem.
Let me know.

yeah they are 2.5 " diameter pipe that has a flange on them. They need to have a little bit of a bowl to them for the donut gasket to fit inside. (Just like the picture shows.

Is the 2.5 dia. the inside measure or the OD measure?

Tom, that is not what I am looking for. I am not looking for the gasket. Thanks anyways.
