Vibrant Aluminum Transition (2in x 2.5in Tube O.D. x 3in Overall Length)
Vibrant Performance aluminum transitions connect 2-inch to 2.5-inch tubing in custom exhaust and intake systems for cars trucks and performance vehicles. Mandrel bent from 6061-T6 aluminum these provide a permanent welded joint with smooth interior flow to reduce turbulence and boost efficiency. Fabricators choose them over silicone couplers for reliable durable setups in turbo intercooler and exhaust applications.
Key Features
- Mandrel Bent Design: Ensures smooth radius transition from 2in to 2.5in outer diameter for unrestricted airflow and minimal backpressure
- 6061-T6 Aluminum: Lightweight strong material resists corrosion and heat for long-term performance in high-temp environments
- 0.065in Wall Thickness: Balances rigidity with minimal weight addition to keep vehicle setups agile
- TIG Weld Ready: Minimal surface prep needed for clean strong welds to standard aluminum tubing
- 3in Overall Length: Compact size fits tight fabrication spaces without compromising connection strength
Product Notes
- Intended for butt welding sections of mandrel bent aluminum tubing
- Mill finish surface supports direct TIG welding without heavy grinding
- Individual packaging protects against shipping damage
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- TIG weld only with matching filler rod for aluminum clean mating surfaces first
- Compatible with Vibrant mandrel bent tubing and standard clamps if temporary fit needed
