Abstract

The invention relates especially to an exhaust piping for a catalytic gas exhaust system including a gas manifold and a catalyzer, said piping (4) being situated between said manifold and said catalyzer and provided with a composite tube (8) which consists of an internal tube and of an external tube defining between them a substantially annular space. Advantageously, said composite tube (8) is housed inside said exhaust piping (4), the external tube coming substantially into contact with said piping, and said internal tube (10) and external tube (11) exhibit thin walls (10A, 11A), the thickness of which is less than 0.3 millimeter.
