Vibrant 3.5in OD 90 Degree Tight Radius Aluminum Bend
This mandrel-bent aluminum tube delivers a precise 3.5-inch outer diameter and tight radius 90-degree angle for custom fabrication in performance vehicle oiling, cooling, and exhaust systems. It fits confined engine bay spaces where standard bends fall short. Weighing just 0.8 lbs with a 6.5-inch overall length, it supports high-flow setups without adding bulk.
Key Features
- Mandrel Bent Construction: Maintains smooth interior flow and consistent diameter to prevent restrictions and turbulence in oil or coolant lines
- 3.5in OD x 0.065in Wall Thickness: Provides structural strength for high-pressure applications while keeping weight low at 0.8 lbs
- Tight Radius 90 Degree Angle: 3.75in centerline radius with 4in legs on each side enables routing in tight spaces like dry sump systems or turbo plumbing
- 6061-T6 Aluminum Material: Offers corrosion resistance and durability for long-term use in harsh underhood environments
- Seamless Tubing Design: Eliminates weak points and ensures reliable performance in custom fabrication projects
