Ticon 2in Aluminum 6061 180 Degree Mandrel Bend - 1.5D Radius

If you're fabricating a custom exhaust system, getting the bends just right is crucial for smooth flow and a clean look. This 180-degree mandrel bend from Ticon is made from 6061 aluminum, a popular choice for its good strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for exhaust applications where weight savings and durability are important.

The 1.5D radius means the bend is relatively tight, with the center of the tube bending around a radius that's 1.5 times the tube's diameter. This is useful when you need to make a sharp turn in a confined space. Mandrel bending ensures the tube maintains its shape and diameter throughout the bend, preventing kinks and restrictions that can hurt exhaust flow. This particular piece is 2 inches in outer diameter.
