Vibrant 1.5in Nom. Schedule-10 T304 SS Long Radius 45 deg. Elbow
The Vibrant Performance 1.5in Nominal Schedule-10 T304 Stainless Steel Long Radius 45 degree Elbow delivers precision bends for turbo exhaust manifolds and downpipe builds. Mandrel bent to maintain full pipe diameter this elbow supports custom fabrication on performance vehicles seeking improved exhaust flow. Its 1.5 inch size fits 1-1/2 inch OD tubing systems commonly used in turbocharged setups.
Key Features
- T304 Stainless Steel: Provides excellent corrosion resistance and withstands extreme exhaust temperatures for reliable long-term use in harsh environments.
- Schedule-10 Wall Thickness: 0.065 inch wall balances lightweight design with structural strength ideal for high-performance exhaust components.
- Long Radius 45 Degree Bend: 3 inch centerline radius reduces flow turbulence and backpressure compared to short radius bends for enhanced scavenging.
- Mandrel Bent Construction: Ensures smooth uninterrupted interior surface with no crimps or reductions preserving maximum exhaust velocity.
- 1.5 Inch Nominal Size: Matches standard 1-1/2 inch OD x 1.380 inch ID tubing perfect for compact turbo downpipes and manifolds.
