The subject of this patent is a gasket for a vehicle exhaust system. It is designed to operate reliably with increasing temperature, and meet reduced leakage requirements of modern engines, while being able to withstand high differential temperatures between engine components. In order to provide flexibility, the gasket is composed of a tubular section with protrusions that are designed to create a seal on, for instance, the bore of the exhaust port, and the bore of the mating exhaust manifold. The tubular section also may have a bellowstype convolution between the flanges -where a conventional gasket normally would be placed. This absorbs shear forces caused by the relative movement of the flanges.
