Need help finding exhaust/water 4x4x5 T with surge protection

Postby eJb » July 9th, 2025, 9:56 am

I have a 96 Carver Santego 380 that needs an exhaust/water T replaced. The problem is there are 2 surge flappers embedded in the T. So far I cannot find a replacement. I contacted Centek and they said it is no longer manufactured. The closest part is a 4x4x5 T without the anti surge protection inside. Any advice is appreciated I’ve attached pictures below.

Have you tried taking it to a fiberglass shop for repairs? A marine shop has probably dealt with this before. If you have to go new and can't get the original, get the tee and install a separate single 5" in-line exhaust check valve. Centek carries them but there are others. You can also check on-line suppliers like https://www.greatlakesskipper.com/. Also try salvage retailers like .... http://themarineconnection.net/ and https://donsmarinesalvageyard.com/

We have the marina do that and unfortunately, it’s still leaking and the check valves are still loose and rattling. We will probably rebuild the whole system as a result. Thanks.
