Moose Offroad Universal 4-Stroke Pipe Armor

Part #: 1861-0611-MAIN

Moose Offroad Universal 4-Stroke Pipe Armor

This pipe armor serves as a durable protective shield designed to safeguard your exhaust system from damage. It is built to offer reliable defense for the vulnerable exhaust component, which is often costly to replace or repair.

Constructed for strength and long-term use, this guard is engineered to maintain exhaust performance while preventing common issues like dents. It delivers professional-grade protection at an accessible price point suitable for regular off-road use.

Ideal for UTV, ATV, and off-road riding applications, it fits a range of standard pipe sizes and supports consistent airflow to preserve engine power output.

Features

• Sturdy stainless steel construction withstands harsh impacts.
• 1/16-inch thickness provides maximum pipe protection.
• Universal fit for 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 inch 4-stroke pipes.
• 10-inch length covers critical exhaust vulnerability areas.
• Prevents dents that rob engine power and performance.
• Lightweight design maintains off-road agility and balance.
• Made in USA for competition-proven durability.
• Easy bolt-on installation without pipe modifications.
• Enhances exhaust heat dissipation for reliability.
• Ideal for 250cc and 450cc off-road applications.

Construction & Materials

The pipe armor is fabricated from stainless steel, chosen for its rigidity and resistance to heat and corrosion. At 1/16" thick, it strikes a balance between lightweight design and sufficient structural strength.

Its robust build ensures it can withstand trail debris, minor impacts, and the harsh conditions common in off-road environments without adding unnecessary bulk.

Dimensions & Fit

Measuring 10 inches in length, this guard is sized to cover and protect a substantial section of the exhaust pipe. It is engineered to fit pipe diameters ranging from 1-1/4" to 1-1/2".

The universal sizing allows it to work across multiple 4-stroke applications, specifically noted for Japanese 250cc models and compatible with most pipes within the stated diameter range.

Application

Designed specifically for 4-stroke engines, this armor is intended for use on UTVs, ATVs, and other off-road vehicles. It addresses the need for exhaust protection in environments where rocks, branches, and obstacles pose a risk.

By shielding the exhaust, it helps maintain consistent exhaust geometry, which in turn helps preserve engine performance and efficiency.

Why It Stands Out

This pipe armor combines reliable protection, durable stainless steel construction, and universal fitment in a single component. It offers works-level protection without premium pricing, making it a practical choice for riders looking to protect their exhaust investment.

Manufactured in the U.S.A., it meets consistent quality standards and is engineered specifically to prevent performance-robbing damage, ensuring your exhaust system stays functional and intact.

Moose Offroad (About)

Our story starts in the mid 1980’s in the shadow of the Rocky Mountains. The question in those days was how to prepare for an ever changing ride but for a core group of offroad riders it was a question of how, and out of their passion came a small offering of hard parts that would put Moose Offroad on the map. What they didn’t know was their desire to make the ride unforgettable would turn into a worldwide force of the finest collection of parts and gear for them and their machine.

In the early 1990’s, visionary Wayne Cornelius came along with distribution giant Parts Unlimited. Wayne knew Moose Offroad was good but he had a desire to make it great. His method to reach that goal was to consult the services of 8-time National Enduro Champion Dick Burleson. Utilizing Burleson’s experience the goal was to design gear that was comfortable to ride in all day rather than a 20 minute moto. That concept was launched in 1994 at the ISDE in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where a team of World-class riders emblazoned in new gear they served notice that Moose Racing has arrived on the scene.

As the 90’s continued, Moose Racing became the go to for hard parts but gear was the avenue to get brand recognition as it performed better than anything else in the market. This strategy blanketed races from the deserts in the west to the steamy woods of the GNCC with Moose Racing gear. It hasn’t been all offroad however, Moose Racing has been a staple of motocross as well. Moose Offroad is proud of its support for racers and riders at all levels from the bright lights of Supercross to the 8am races in the GNCC. Today, Moose Offroad continues the vision and strives to stay ahead of the pack, thirty plus years of blood, sweat, and gears has only made us more passionate to push on and keep evolving.
