A double pipe includes an outer pipe in which an inner pipe is placed, and a spacer that maintains a clearance between the inner pipe and the outer pipe. At least a part of the spacer is press-fitted by an inner circumferential surface of the outer pipe and an outer circumferential surface of the inner pipe. More specifically, the outer pipe includes a diameter-reduced portion having undergone diameter reduction by plasticity processing. An inner circumferential surface of the diameter-reduced portion is present across the entire circumference other than the opening of the spacer, and presses an outer circumferential surface of the spacer inwardly in the radial direction.

Double pipe and method for manufacturing same

An assembly for fitting together multiple exhaust pipes in a multi-cylinder engine into a single unit is provided. The assembly includes a cap and a choke pipe connected to the cap. The cap includes a surface with multiple sockets protruding from the surface in a direction opposite to the choke pipe whereby the sockets engage the exhaust pipes. The cap also includes a skirt, which surrounds a perimeter of the surface. The skirt extends from the surface in a direction toward the choke pipe. An internal surface of the sockets, an internal surface of the skirt and an internal surface of the choke pipe are linearly arranged with respect to each other.
