What is a mandrel bend?

A mandrel bend is created using a flexible internal support (the mandrel) that prevents the tubing from collapsing or kinking during the bending process. This ensures the inside diameter of the tube remains consistent throughout the bend, which is important for exhaust flow.

What is 16-gauge steel?

16-gauge steel is a common thickness for exhaust tubing, offering a good balance between durability and ease of welding for custom fabrication projects. It's strong enough for most exhaust applications.

What does 1.5D bend radius mean?

The '1.5D' refers to the bend radius relative to the tube's diameter. A 1.5D radius means the center of the bend is 1.5 times the tube's diameter away from the tube's centerline. This results in a relatively smooth, gradual bend.

About this part

Product Details

You get one Stainless Bros 2.75-inch 90-degree mandrel bend elbow. This piece is constructed from 16-gauge steel with a wall thickness of .065 inches, featuring a 1.5D bend radius. It’s designed for custom exhaust system fabrication where precise bends are needed.

The mandrel bending process ensures that the tube maintains its diameter throughout the bend, which is crucial for smooth exhaust flow and preventing restrictions. This helps your engine breathe easier and can contribute to improved performance. The 16-gauge steel offers a good balance of strength and weldability for custom exhaust projects.
