Stainless Bros 90 Degree SS304 Mandrel Bend - 1.5D Radius - 16GA/.065in Wall - 5in Leg / 8in Leg

This 90-degree exhaust bend is made from SS304 stainless steel, a well-known material for exhaust fabrication because it resists rust and holds up well to heat. The 1.5D radius means the bend is tighter, which can be useful when you're working with limited space or trying to achieve a specific exhaust routing. It's constructed with a 16-gauge wall thickness, or .065 inches, which offers a good balance between strength and ease of welding for custom exhaust projects.

The tubing itself is mandrel bent. This process uses a flexible internal mold, or mandrel, to support the tube during bending. This ensures the tube keeps its round shape and doesn't collapse or kink, which is crucial for maintaining smooth exhaust flow. You get a clean, consistent bend that's easier to work with and performs better than crush bends. This particular piece has one leg that's 5 inches long and the other that's 8 inches long, giving you some flexibility in how you integrate it into your custom exhaust system.
