What is a mandrel bend?

A mandrel bend is created using a flexible internal support (a mandrel) that prevents the tubing from collapsing or kinking during the bending process. This ensures the tube's diameter stays consistent throughout the bend, which is important for smooth exhaust flow.

What does 1.5D refer to?

The '1.5D' designation refers to the bend radius in relation to the tube's diameter. In this case, the bend radius is 1.5 times the tube's diameter, indicating a relatively tight bend suitable for custom routing where space might be limited.

Why is stainless steel used for exhaust tubing?

Stainless steel is used because it offers good resistance to corrosion from moisture and road salt, and it can withstand the high temperatures generated by exhaust gases. This helps the tubing last longer in harsh undercar conditions.

About this part

Product Details

Stainless Bros is known for providing a wide range of stainless steel exhaust components. This particular piece is a 1.50-inch diameter, 45-degree bend leg mandrel bend, designed for custom exhaust fabrication. The 1.5D designation refers to the bend radius, indicating a tighter bend for specific routing needs, while the 2.25-inch CLR (centerline radius) gives you a clear space for the bend itself.

This tubing is made from stainless steel, which helps resist corrosion and withstand the high temperatures found in exhaust systems. The mandrel bending process ensures that the tube's diameter remains consistent throughout the bend, preventing kinks and maintaining smooth exhaust flow. This is crucial for performance, as any restriction can reduce engine efficiency.
