Vibrant 5in OD T6061 Aluminum Mandrel Bend 45 Degree - Polished

This is a Vibrant 5-inch outside diameter, 45-degree aluminum mandrel bend tube. It's made from 6061 aluminum with a polished finish and a 1.5mm wall thickness, designed for custom exhaust or intake fabrication projects. The mandrel bending process ensures the tube maintains its shape and diameter throughout the bend, which is crucial for smooth airflow in both pressurized and naturally aspirated systems.

Fabricators often choose Vibrant for its well-made aluminum tubing because it requires minimal surface preparation before TIG welding, saving time on custom builds. The 1.5mm wall thickness offers a good balance between being lightweight and strong enough for most fabrication needs. This particular piece has a 45-degree angle, a 7-inch centerline radius, and 4-inch leg lengths, making it versatile for routing custom piping.
