What is a mandrel bend?

A mandrel bend is created using a flexible mandrel inside the tubing during the bending process. This prevents the tube from collapsing or kinking, maintaining its original inner diameter and ensuring smooth exhaust flow.

Why is SS304 stainless steel a good choice for exhaust systems?

SS304 stainless steel offers good resistance to corrosion and heat, which are common challenges for exhaust components. This makes it a popular material for custom exhaust builds where longevity is desired.

What does '1D radius' mean for this elbow?

A 1D radius refers to the tightness of the bend. In this case, the centerline of the bend is equal to the outer diameter of the tubing, resulting in a compact 90-degree turn suitable for tight routing.

About this part

Product Details

If you're fabricating a custom exhaust system, you'll need precise bends to route your tubing where you want it. This 90-degree elbow from Stainless Bros is designed for that purpose. It's made from SS304 stainless steel, which is known for its good corrosion resistance, making it a popular choice for exhaust work. The 1D radius means the bend is tight, allowing you to make sharper turns in your exhaust layout.

This elbow features a mandrel bend, which helps maintain the tube's inner diameter through the bend. This is important for exhaust flow, as it prevents the restriction that can happen with crush bends. The tubing wall is 16 gauge, or .065 inches thick, offering a good balance between strength and weldability for custom exhaust projects. It's a well-built piece that will help you achieve a clean and functional exhaust routing.
