Vibrant Stainless Steel V-Band Flange for 3in O.D. Tubing - Male

Vibrant Performance male V-band flange connects 3-inch outer diameter tubing in custom stainless steel or aluminum charge piping and exhaust systems. This component delivers leak-free seals as an alternative to welded clamped or slip-fit joints. Professionals rely on it for fabrication in high-performance turbo and exhaust builds.

Key Features

  • Stainless Steel Construction: T304 material handles extreme heat and resists corrosion in exhaust environments
  • 3in OD Tubing Fit: Precision machined to mate perfectly with 3.00-inch outer diameter thin-wall tubing
  • Male Flange Design: Pairs with standard female flanges and V-band clamps for quick secure connections
  • Modular System: Supports easy assembly disassembly without welding for faster fabrication
  • Versatile Application: Works in turbo manifolds downpipes and intercooler piping setups

Product Notes

  • Requires matching female flange like Vibrant 1491F and V-band clamp like 14910 sold separately
  • Clean and deburr tubing ends before installation for optimal seal
  • Packaged to arrive undamaged with protective inserts

Installation Notes

  • Professional installation recommended.
  • Square tubing ends and apply anti-seize to clamp T-bolt threads
  • Torque V-band clamp to 6-8 ft-lbs for proper sealing without damage

Fabrication

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

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...
