Stainless Bros 1.75in SS321 45 Deg Mandrel Bend Elbow - 1D Radius 16GA/.065in Wall (Leg)

When you're building a custom exhaust system, getting the bends just right is key to a clean install and good flow. This 45-degree elbow from Stainless Bros is made from SS321 stainless steel, which is a popular choice for exhaust components because it handles high temperatures well and resists corrosion.

This piece features a 1D radius, meaning the center of the bend is one times the tube's diameter away from the tube's edge. It's a tight radius bend, often used when space is limited or you need to make a sharp change in direction. The tubing itself is 16-gauge (0.065 inch wall thickness), offering a good balance of strength and weldability for fabrication projects. Using mandrel bends like this ensures the tube maintains its shape and diameter through the bend, which is important for consistent exhaust flow.
