Vibrant Performance 3.5in Oval T304 SS 90 Deg Mandrel Bend 6in x 6in Leg Lengths - Universal
This 90-degree mandrel bend from Vibrant Performance features 3.5in nominal oval T304 stainless steel tubing in 16 gauge thickness with precise 6in x 6in leg lengths. Designed for custom exhaust fabrication on cars trucks and performance vehicles it delivers smooth interior flow without crimps or reductions. The oval profile fits tight clearance areas while maintaining high exhaust velocity and durability.
Key Features
- T304 Stainless Steel Construction: Offers excellent corrosion resistance and longevity in harsh exhaust environments for reliable long-term performance.
- Mandrel Bent Design: Ensures a continuous smooth radius inside the bend to preserve cross-sectional area and optimize exhaust gas flow.
- 3.5in Nominal Oval Profile: Measures 3.5in height by 2.25in width providing essential ground clearance in compact chassis setups.
- 16 Gauge 0.065in Wall Thickness: Balances strength durability and weight reduction for high-performance applications.
- 6in x 6in Leg Lengths: Allows straightforward integration into custom piping layouts with minimal cutting or adjustment.
Product Notes
- Consistent dimensional tolerances and material composition simplify welding preparation.
- Ideal for turbo downpipes headers and mid-pipe sections in performance exhaust builds.
- Packaged to protect polished finish during transit.
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- TIG weld for optimal strength and appearance on stainless steel.
- Mock up full exhaust path before final welding to verify clearances.
