Universal Vibrant 321 Stainless Steel Straight Tubing 1.50in OD 16 Gauge Wall Thickness 36in Long
Vibrant 321 stainless steel straight tubing measures 1.50 inches outer diameter with 16 gauge wall thickness and 36 inches length for custom fabrication of performance exhaust systems turbo downpipes intercooler piping and more. This tubing suits any vehicle requiring high flow durable piping solutions due to its heat and corrosion resistance. Builders rely on it for reliable welds and long lasting performance in racing street and off road applications.
Key Features
- 321 Stainless Steel Material: Stabilized alloy withstands 1600F temperatures prevents carbide precipitation during welding ensures durability in harsh exhaust environments
- 1.50in Outer Diameter: Standard size matches most exhaust mandrel bends flanges and reducers for seamless custom builds
- 16 Gauge Wall Thickness 0.065in: Provides strength for boost pressure and vibration while keeping weight low at 1.81 lbs per 36in section
- 36in Straight Length: Full sticks allow precise cuts to exact measurements minimizing waste during fabrication
- High Polish Finish: Smooth surface reduces airflow turbulence promotes faster scavenging improves throttle response
Product Notes
- Inspect tubing upon arrival ensure no dents before cutting or welding
- Clean ends thoroughly before welding to avoid contamination
- Ships rolled in protective cardboard tube prevents bending in transit
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- TIG weld with 321 or 308 filler rod at low heat to preserve material properties
- Compatible with Vibrant flares mandrel bends and V-band clamps for complete systems
