What is a mandrel bend and why is it important for exhaust tubing?

A mandrel bend is created using a flexible internal mold (mandrel) that supports the tubing during the bending process. This prevents the tube from collapsing or kinking, ensuring a smooth, consistent inner diameter. For exhaust systems, this means better airflow and less restriction, which can help maintain performance.

What does 1.5D radius mean for this tubing?

The '1.5D' refers to the bend radius being 1.5 times the diameter of the tubing. In this case, with a 2.25-inch diameter, the bend radius is approximately 3.375 inches. This indicates a relatively tight bend, which is useful for fitting exhaust systems into compact areas.

What is the material of this exhaust tubing?

This exhaust tubing is made from steel. Steel is a common material for exhaust components due to its strength and weldability, making it suitable for custom fabrication projects.

About this part

Product Details

Stainless Bros is known for providing well-built exhaust components, and this 2.25-inch diameter, 90-degree mandrel bend tubing is a prime example. If you're fabricating a custom exhaust system, this piece offers a clean, consistent bend that's crucial for proper flow and fitment. The 1.5D (1.5 times the diameter) radius bend means it's a tighter curve, which can be useful when working in tight spaces or when you need to route the tubing precisely.

This tubing features 6.5-inch legs on either side of the 90-degree bend, giving you ample material to work with for welding and connecting to other exhaust sections. The mandrel bending process ensures that the tubing maintains its diameter throughout the bend, preventing kinks and restrictions that can hurt performance. It's made from steel, making it a solid option for custom exhaust projects where durability and ease of welding are important.
