What is a mandrel bend?

A mandrel bend is created using a flexible rod (mandrel) inside the tubing during the bending process. This prevents the tube from collapsing or kinking, maintaining its round shape and internal diameter throughout the bend.

What does '1.5D radius' mean?

The 'D' refers to the diameter of the tubing. A 1.5D radius means the center of the bend is 1.5 times the tubing's diameter away from the tube's centerline. This results in a tighter bend compared to larger radius bends.

What is SS304 stainless steel good for?

SS304 stainless steel is well-known for its excellent resistance to rust and corrosion. This makes it a popular choice for exhaust systems, as it holds up well against moisture, road salt, and exhaust gases.

About this part

Product Details

If you're fabricating a custom exhaust system, you'll need specific bends to route your tubing around obstacles. This 45-degree elbow from Stainless Bros is designed for that purpose. It's made from SS304 stainless steel, which is a strong material that resists rust and corrosion, making it a good choice for exhaust components that are exposed to the elements.

This elbow features a 1.5D radius, meaning the center of the bend is 1.5 times the diameter of the tubing away from the tube's centerline. This tighter radius allows you to make sharper turns when space is limited. The tubing itself is 16-gauge thick, or .065 inches, which is a solid wall thickness for exhaust applications. The 'no leg' designation means the ends are cut straight, ready for you to weld onto your existing or new tubing.
