Vibrant 2.5in. O.D. Titanium 90 Degree Mandrel Bend Tube / 3in. CLR / 6in. Leg Length
This Vibrant Performance titanium mandrel bend delivers precision shaping for custom exhaust systems on performance cars trucks and race vehicles. Made from CP1 grade titanium it weighs half as much as comparable 16 gauge 304 stainless steel bends while matching strength and heat resistance. Ideal for turbo downpipes intercooler piping and full exhaust fabrication where every ounce counts.
Key Features
- CP1 Grade Titanium Construction: 1.2mm (0.047in) wall thickness provides corrosion resistance high temperature tolerance and durability in extreme conditions
- Lightweight Design: Approximately 0.3 lbs per bend reduces overall vehicle weight for better acceleration and handling without sacrificing rigidity
- Precise Mandrel Bend: 90 degree angle with 3in centerline radius (CLR) and 6in leg lengths ensures smooth flow and no restriction in exhaust or intake paths
- 2.5in Outer Diameter: Perfect match for high flow 2.5in exhaust systems common in turbocharged and naturally aspirated performance builds
- Made in USA Quality: Consistent wall thickness and seamless bends from Vibrant Performance engineering for reliable welds and long term performance
Product Notes
- Designed for TIG welding into custom exhaust or intake configurations
- Handle with care to avoid surface scratches on natural titanium finish
- Ships in protective cardboard tube to prevent bending during transit
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- TIG welding required using titanium filler rod and argon shielding gas
- Compatible with standard V-band clamps or flanges for secure connections
