What is a mandrel bend?

A mandrel bend is created using a flexible internal support (the mandrel) that prevents the tubing from collapsing or kinking during the bending process. This ensures the inside diameter remains consistent throughout the bend, which is crucial for optimal exhaust flow.

What is SS304 stainless steel?

SS304 is a popular grade of stainless steel known for its excellent corrosion resistance and durability. It's widely used in exhaust systems because it holds up well to heat and the elements, helping to prevent rust and extend the life of the component.

What are the dimensions of this tubing?

This tubing has an outer diameter of 1.5 inches, a wall thickness of 0.065 inches (16 gauge), and each leg of the bend is 6.5 inches long. The bend itself is at a 15-degree angle with a 1.5D radius.

About this part

Product Details

Stainless Bros is known for providing a wide range of stainless steel exhaust components. This particular piece is a 1.5-inch diameter mandrel bend, featuring a 15-degree angle and a 1.5D radius. It's constructed from 16-gauge SS304 stainless steel, which is a strong and corrosion-resistant material commonly used in exhaust systems.

The mandrel bending process ensures that the tube maintains its diameter throughout the bend, unlike crush bends which can restrict flow. This is important for exhaust systems where smooth airflow is key to performance. Each leg of this bend measures 6.5 inches, giving you ample material to work with when fabricating custom exhaust setups. The 0.065-inch wall thickness offers a good balance between strength and weldability for DIY projects or professional fabrication.
