What is SS321 stainless steel and why is it used for exhaust parts?

SS321 is a type of stainless steel that contains titanium. This addition makes it more resistant to high temperatures and corrosion, especially when used in exhaust systems that experience significant heat cycles.

What is the advantage of a mandrel bend?

Mandrel bending shapes the tube without collapsing or kinking it. This maintains the tube's full inner diameter through the bend, which is important for unrestricted exhaust gas flow and performance.

About this part

Product Details

This 90-degree elbow is made from SS321 stainless steel, a material known for its excellent resistance to high temperatures and corrosion, making it a solid choice for exhaust fabrication. The tubing measures 1.5 inches in diameter with a wall thickness of 16 gauge, or .065 inches, which offers a good balance of strength and weldability for custom exhaust projects.

The bend features a 1.5D radius, meaning the center of the bend is 1.5 times the tube's diameter away from the tube's centerline. This tighter radius allows for more compact routing in tight spaces compared to larger radius bends. Being a mandrel bend, the tube maintains its full diameter through the curve, preventing kinks and ensuring smooth exhaust flow, which is crucial for performance. This piece is designed for welding into custom exhaust systems where precise angles and smooth transitions are needed.
