Key Features
- T304 Stainless Steel: Handles extreme exhaust temperatures and resists rust for reliable long-term use in demanding applications
- Brushed Finish: Eye-catching appearance straight from the package with no surface prep needed before welding
- 90 Degree Tight Radius Bend: 4.0 inch centerline radius maintains full tube diameter for maximum flow in compact spaces
- 5.91in Tangent Length: Precise short straights on both 5.91in legs cut down material use during custom builds
- Extended Leg Design: Extra leg reach provides flexible positioning for complex routing around chassis components
Product Notes
