What is SS304 stainless steel?

SS304 is a popular grade of stainless steel known for its excellent resistance to rust and corrosion. It's commonly used in exhaust systems because it holds up well against heat and environmental exposure.

Why is mandrel bending important for exhaust tubing?

Mandrel bending uses a die to support the inside of the tube during the bending process. This prevents the tube from collapsing or kinking, ensuring a smooth, consistent inner diameter. This smooth flow is important for exhaust efficiency and performance.

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

The '1.5D radius' refers to the center line radius of the bend. It means the radius of the bend is 1.5 times the diameter of the tubing. For this 2-inch tube, the center line radius would be 3 inches.

About this part

Product Details

This 2-inch exhaust tubing from Stainless Bros features a 15-degree bend with a 1.5D radius, made from SS304 stainless steel. The 16-gauge (.065-inch) wall thickness offers a good balance between strength and ease of fabrication for custom exhaust projects. Each leg measures 6.5 inches, providing ample length for connecting sections of your exhaust system.

Using SS304 stainless steel means this tubing is well-built to resist corrosion, which is important for exhaust components exposed to road salt and moisture. The mandrel bending process ensures that the tube maintains its diameter throughout the bend, preventing kinks and maintaining smooth exhaust flow. This is crucial for performance, as restrictions can reduce power and efficiency.

This piece is ideal for fabricators building custom exhaust systems, headers, or modifying existing setups. Its consistent bend radius and material make it a reliable choice for creating clean, professional-looking exhaust work.
