Vibrant 90 Degree Mandrel Bend 2in OD x 6in CLR 304 Stainless Steel Tubing - Universal Fit
Vibrant Performance 90 degree mandrel bent tubing measures 2 inches OD with 6 inch centerline radius in heavy duty 304 stainless steel. Build custom exhaust systems for cars trucks and race vehicles with smooth unrestricted flow. Corrosion resistant material handles high heat and pressure in demanding setups.
Key Features
- Mandrel Bent Construction: Smooth interior curve eliminates crimps kinks or flow restrictions for maximum exhaust velocity
- 304 Stainless Steel: Premium T304 grade resists rust corrosion and thermal fatigue far longer than mild steel or aluminized options
- Precise Dimensions: 2in OD x 1.87in ID x 0.065in wall thickness 16 gauge with 8.625in leg length per side for tight routing
- 90 Degree Angle 6in CLR: Compact bend radius fits confined spaces while maintaining full pipe diameter
- Universal Fabrication: Perfect for turbo downpipes headers Y-pipes and full exhaust kits on any performance build
Product Notes
- Inspect tubing ends for burrs before welding or clamping
- Clean with stainless polish to maintain finish and remove fabrication residue
- Store flat to prevent bending store in dry area
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- Use rotary tube cutter for clean square ends before joining
- Compatible with V-band clamps hangers and slip joints for secure exhaust assembly
