Quick Answer
Quick answer: Exhaust tips ship in individual export cartons whose size follows the product class. A single universal stainless steel tip such as the JC-GENERAL-006 (0.4KG) packs in a 17×12×12 cm box, a standard pair for a luxury sedan such as the JC-BMW-012 for the BMW 7 Series G11-G12 (2.2KG) in a 38×30×20 cm carton, and a large SUV conversion kit such as the JC-BMW-076 (6.35KG) in an 83×42×17 cm carton.

Why Packaging Data Matters Before You Order
Most exhaust tip buyers compare models by outlet shape, color and fitment - and only think about packaging after the goods are ready. That is expensive. Weight and carton size decide your freight cost per unit, your warehouse shelf planning, and whether a mixed order actually fits the container you booked. A pair of decorative frames at 0.4KG and a full G-Class four-out exhaust at 40KG may both be "exhaust tips" in a product line, but they belong to completely different freight classes.
Checking packing data before you confirm an order also protects your margin when comparing suppliers. Two tips with the same look can differ by 1-2KG in packed weight, which changes the landed cost per set significantly on sea freight. The D.BOX catalog therefore lists the packed weight and carton dimensions for every model, so wholesale buyers can calculate freight before committing.
Four Weight and Carton Classes of Exhaust Tip Orders
Across more than 400 catalog models, exhaust tip products fall into four practical packaging classes. The table below shows one real catalog example for each class - all weights and carton sizes are taken directly from the catalog:
| Class | Example Model | Vehicle Application | Weight | Packing Size |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| S - single tip | JC-GENERAL-006 | Universal inclined wire edge single round, Diameter:101, 1 pc | 0.4KG | 17×12×12 cm |
| S - decorative frame | JC-BMW-027 | BMW G30-G38 upgrade Black Knight square with bar decorative frame | 0.4KG | 23×18×6.5 cm |
| M - standard pair | JC-BMW-012 | BMW G11-G12 (later) 740 original model square | 2.2KG | 38×30×20 cm |
| M/L - reinforced pair | JC-BENZ-019 | Mercedes-Benz W204-W212 upgrade C63-E63 H-type split square | 4.45KG | 32×22×28 cm |
| L - full conversion kit | JC-BMW-076 | BMW F25-F26 single interface upgrade Cayenne-type bilateral square simple exhaust | 6.35KG | 83×42×17 cm |
| XL - long kit | JC-LAND ROVER-007 | Land Rover Defender upgrade Black Knight III split square (with exhaust decorative network) | 13.55KG | 115×65×18 cm |
| Freight class - full exhaust | JC-BENZ-075 | Mercedes-Benz W463 upgrade Brabus bilateral four-out exhaust | 40KG | 124×53×30 cm |
Two things are worth noting for buyers. First, pairs usually pack flat: a split square pair like the JC-BENZ-019 weighs 4.45KG but still fits a 32×22×28 cm carton, while kits that include long connecting pipes need cartons of 80 cm and above. Second, the largest full-exhaust systems cross from parcel freight into pallet and forklift territory - the JC-BENZ-075 at 40KG and 124×53×30 cm is a typical example, and such items should be planned as pallet cargo from the start.
What Is Confirmed and What to Confirm
The weight and carton size of every model in the table above is confirmed catalog data. The following points are not yet fixed and we ask you to confirm them with our team before finalizing a purchase plan:
- Inner packaging specification - whether each set uses an individual inner box, foam or pearl-cotton lining, and how many sets per outer carton: please confirm with our team.
- Mixed loading - how many different models can be consolidated into one carton or one shipment, and whether mixed orders affect MOQ: please confirm with our team.
- Carton material - carton weight class and compression strength for long sea freight: please confirm with our team.
- Pallet planning - pallet dimensions, stacking limits and container loading plans for XL and freight-class items: please confirm with our team.
- Lead time for mixed wholesale orders: please confirm with our team.
How to Plan a Mixed Wholesale Order
Step 1: Build the Packing List First
Before booking any freight, list every model and quantity, then multiply by the catalog weight and carton size. Ten standard pairs in 38×30×20 cm cartons at about 2.2KG each occupy a very different volume than ten Defender-style kits in 115×65×18 cm cartons at 13.55KG each. The packing list is also the document your freight forwarder will quote against.
Step 2: Decide Between LCL and FCL
As a rule of thumb, orders under roughly 3-5 cubic meters usually go LCL (less than container load), while a full product range for a distributor is often more economical as FCL. Because most exhaust tip cartons in the M and M/L classes stay between 30 and 46 cm on the longest side, they stack efficiently; the L and XL classes with 80-124 cm cartons need floor space planning. If you are unsure which side of the line your order falls on, send the packing list to our team and confirm the total volume with us before booking.
Step 3: Watch Volumetric Weight on Air Freight
For urgent top-up orders by air, carriers charge by volumetric weight, so a light but bulky carton can cost more than its actual weight suggests. A 38×30×20 cm carton equals about 0.023 CBM - at a typical air divisor of 6000, that is roughly 3.8KG of chargeable volume even though the product inside weighs only 2.2KG. This is why most dealers ship exhaust tips by sea and reserve air freight for single urgent sets.
Packaging FAQ for Wholesale Buyers
How are exhaust tips packaged for shipping?
Each model ships in its own export carton sized to the product class: single universal tips in cartons around 17×12×12 cm, standard pairs in cartons of roughly 32-46 cm, full kits in 80 cm and larger cartons, and full exhaust systems on pallets. Carton dimensions and packed weights for each model are listed in the catalog.
How do I calculate shipping cost for exhaust tips?
Multiply the order quantity by the catalog packed weight for gross weight, and multiply carton dimensions for total volume, then let your forwarder compare the actual weight against the volumetric weight and charge the higher one. For example, twenty standard pairs at 2.2KG in 38×30×20 cm cartons give about 44KG gross and about 0.46 CBM.
Can I mix different exhaust tip models in one shipment?
Yes - wholesale orders typically consolidate multiple models, and the catalog covers more than 400 models across BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Audi, Land Rover and other brands. The exact mixed-loading rules and whether mixing affects the MOQ: please confirm with our team before ordering.
