This is the MagnaFlow OEM Grade direct-fit catalytic converter 23-156 for the underbody rear position on 2017-2019 Ford Escape models with an L4 engine. It is designed to meet or exceed Federal EPA emissions requirements for OBDII vehicles. It interchanges with OE part numbers GV6Z-5E212-C, GV6Z-5E212-D and JJ5Z-5E212-A.
The converter is built from 409 stainless steel tubing in 16 gauge, with a spun stainless steel body and a ceramic substrate. Mandrel-bent tubing keeps the original design and geometry. A single laser fusion weld replicates the OE design, and 308 stainless steel MIG welds are used. The compact, low-mass design allows for greater thermal efficiency.
It installs without cutting or welding, using the proper tools. The hardware needed for installation is included, along with a Torca Accuseal clamp that applies even clamping force through a full 360 degrees.
