What does '1.5D radius' mean for this exhaust bend?

The '1.5D radius' refers to the bend's curvature. 'D' represents the diameter of the tube (2.13 inches in this case), so a 1.5D radius means the center of the bend follows a curve with a radius of 1.5 times the tube's diameter. This results in a tighter bend compared to larger radius bends.

What is the advantage of using SS304 stainless steel for exhaust tubing?

SS304 stainless steel is a popular choice for exhaust systems because it offers good resistance to corrosion and heat. This helps extend the life of the exhaust components, especially in areas exposed to moisture and exhaust gases.

What is the benefit of a mandrel bend?

Mandrel bending uses a supportive internal mandrel during the bending process. This prevents the tube from collapsing or kinking, ensuring the inside diameter remains consistent throughout the bend. This is important for maintaining optimal exhaust flow and preventing turbulence.

About this part

Product Details

This 2.13-inch diameter exhaust tubing bend is made from SS304 stainless steel, a material known for its good corrosion resistance, making it a solid choice for custom exhaust systems. The bend itself is a 180-degree turn with a 1.5D radius, meaning the center of the tube follows a curve with a radius of 1.5 times its diameter. This tighter radius allows for more compact bends in your fabrication work.

The tubing features a 16-gauge wall thickness, which is .065 inches, providing a good balance between strength and weldability for exhaust applications. Each leg of the bend measures 6 inches long, giving you ample material to work with when connecting it into your exhaust layout. This type of mandrel bend ensures the tube maintains its round shape and doesn't collapse during the bending process, which is crucial for maintaining smooth exhaust flow.
