Stainless Bros 304SS 5in Diameter 1.5D Radius 45 Degree Bend Elbow Mandrel Bend

If you're fabricating a custom exhaust system, getting the bends just right is key to a clean install and good flow. This 45-degree elbow from Stainless Bros is made from 304 stainless steel, so it's built to handle the heat and resist corrosion over time. The 5-inch diameter and 1.5D radius mean it offers a smooth, consistent path for exhaust gases, which helps maintain performance.

This elbow is mandrel bent, which is important because it means the tube's diameter stays consistent through the bend. Unlike crush bends, which can restrict flow, a mandrel bend keeps the inside radius round. This is especially useful when you need to connect sections of pipe with a tight turn without sacrificing exhaust efficiency. It's a well-built piece that makes custom exhaust work more straightforward.
