they will work but why not just get the right clamps for the stuff they are stainless and look much better. you shoud be able to get them where you bought the wrap from.

Exhaust wrap does almost no sound damping.

Worm gear clamps work well. I use them when I run out of those fancy stainless zip ties.

I'm not Trying to cut down the Sound!..I'm curious as to How Wrapping a header Would Cut Down Screaming Exhaust gases though!..anyhow,I Got the Wrap In the States..No sense in Paying 30 bucks for Shipping Miscellaneous Parts when Worm Gear clamps will work just as well..So Thanks Guys..and you Too Aaron!.(class of your Own!.heh,heh!).
