What is a 1D bend radius?

A 1D bend radius means the center of the bend is only one diameter away from the tube's edge. For a 2-inch tube, this means the center of the bend is 2 inches from the tube's edge, creating a tighter curve than larger radius bends.

Why is SS321 stainless steel used for exhaust components?

SS321 stainless steel is often used in exhaust systems because it has good resistance to high temperatures and corrosion. It also contains titanium, which helps stabilize the carbide precipitation at elevated temperatures.

What is the difference between a mandrel bend and a crush bend?

A mandrel bend uses a support inside the tube to maintain its full diameter through the bend, ensuring smooth exhaust flow. A crush bend simply bends the tube, which can constrict the internal diameter and restrict flow.

About this part

Product Details

This is a 2-inch diameter, 90-degree mandrel bend elbow from Stainless Bros, made from SS321 stainless steel with a 16-gauge (.065-inch) wall thickness. It's designed for custom exhaust fabrication projects where precise bends are needed. The 1D radius means the center of the bend is only one diameter away from the tube's edge, creating a tighter curve than larger radius bends.

The SS321 stainless steel offers good resistance to high temperatures and corrosion, making it a solid choice for exhaust systems. Mandrel bending ensures the tube maintains its full diameter through the bend, which helps maintain exhaust flow compared to crush bends. This elbow is ideal for builders creating custom exhaust routing, headers, or intake piping where space is a consideration and smooth flow is important.
