Vibrant Aluminum V-Band Flange for 3.5in OD Tubing - Female
The Vibrant Performance 11492F female V-band flange connects 3.5 inch outer diameter tubing in custom exhaust intercooler and turbocharger piping systems. This aluminum flange creates secure leak-free joints as an alternative to slip-fit or bolted connections. Performance builders rely on it for reliable modular setups in racing and street applications.
Key Features
- CNC Machined Aluminum: Provides strength lightweight design and corrosion resistance for long-term use in high-heat environments
- 3.5in OD Tubing Fit: Exact match for standard 3.5 inch outer diameter aluminum or stainless steel tubes used in charge and exhaust systems
- Female V-Band Design: Pairs with male flange and standard V-band clamp for quick repeatable assembly and disassembly
- Precision Tolerances: Ensures airtight seals under boost or exhaust pressure without gaskets
- Compact Profile: Minimizes bulk in tight engine bay spaces while maintaining structural integrity
Product Notes
- Requires matching male flange such as Vibrant 11492M and 3.5in V-band clamp like 11562 sold separately
- Ideal for turbo intercooler piping downpipes and full exhaust fabrication projects
- Product dimensions 4in x 4in x 0.875in shipping weight 0.4lbs
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- Clean flange and tubing surfaces verify 3.5in OD measurement before assembly
- Torque V-band clamp to 7-9 Nm using torque wrench for proper seal

Fabrication
Fabrication parts and materials provide the raw components needed to build, repair, and modify custom exhaust systems, turbocharger plumbing, intercooler piping, fuel system lines, oil routing, and engine bay heat management on performance and competition vehicles. Stainless steel tubing, titanium tubing, aluminum charge piping, mandrel bends, pie cuts, flanges, merge collectors, V-band clamps, O2 sensor bungs, AN fittings, PTFE hose kits, braided fuel and oil lines, heat shields, and welding supplies are the backbone of any serious custom fabrication project. Professional fabricators, race team mechanics, and advanced DIY builders who want full control over exhaust routing, charge pipe layout, or fuel system plumbing choose raw fabrication materials rather than pre-bent kits because custom fabrication allows fitment solutions that no universal kit can accommodate. Brands including Vibrant Performance, Ticon Industries, Stainless Bros, Radium Engineering, Fragola, and DEI provide th...

Flanges
Exhaust flanges are the bolted connection points where exhaust manifolds mate to downpipes, where sections of exhaust pipe join at catalytic converters and muffler inlets, and where aftermarket headers connect to factory or custom collector sections, making flange quality and correct material specification critical for maintaining leak-free exhaust connections under the extreme temperature cycling that performance exhaust systems experience. Flange warping and gasket failures at exhaust connection points are among the most common exhaust leak sources on both stock and modified vehicles, as the thermal expansion differences between the flange material and the connected pipe cause progressive face distortion over time that breaks the gasket seal. Performance exhaust builders use thick-cut mild steel, stainless steel, or titanium flanges in precise O.D. profiles matched to their pipe diameter to ensure the clamping surface remains flat through hundreds of heat cycles. This collection c...
