Default Predator 500 spark arrestors blowing out

Hi I have a problem with my spark arrestors blowing out on my 2005 predator 500 just wondering if anyone else has had this problem and found a solution to it. Depending on how I ride they normally last about 2 hours and then it blows out. And where I ride I have to have one so im constantly changing it. Any help is appreciated if someone has made a spark arrestors that lasts longer or somthing. Thanks

Thanks for the reply. The problem is that the screen in that tip is that same screen material as the other spark arrestors so im assuming that would blow out as well. Its bored out to a 525. It just makes me wonder if I just have to much compression for normal arrestors so they just blow out. I talked to a guy and my local motorsports shop and all he said was the predator has a ton of compression and thats why I keep blowing them out. (Doesn't help my problem at all)

Then you might consider a better exhaust system.

Unfortunately that might be my only option. Thanks
