Vibrant 321 Stainless Steel Straight Tubing 1.50in OD - 16 Gauge Wall Thickness

This is a 39.375-inch length of straight tubing from Vibrant, measuring 1.50 inches in outside diameter with a 16-gauge wall thickness. It's made from 321 stainless steel, a material that handles prolonged high temperatures, from 800°F up to 1500°F, much better than standard 304 stainless steel. This makes it a solid choice for exhaust systems, especially in applications where the engine is under more stress, like forced induction setups.

Beyond its heat resistance, 321 stainless steel also offers improved corrosion resistance and is more resilient against tensile stress and stress fractures compared to 304 stainless. The 16-gauge wall thickness provides a good balance of strength and workability for fabrication projects. This tubing is a popular option for custom exhaust builds, intercooler piping, or any fabrication project that requires durable, high-temperature metal.
