Vibrant 90 Degree Mandrel Bend 1.50in OD x 4in CLR 304 Stainless Steel Tubing

This 90-degree bend is made from 304 stainless steel, a material known for its good corrosion resistance, making it a solid choice for exhaust fabrication. The tubing measures 1.50 inches in outside diameter, and the bend itself has a 4-inch centerline radius. This specific radius means the bend is not too tight, which helps maintain smooth airflow and makes it easier to work with when building custom exhaust systems or other fabricated components.

The mandrel bending process is key here. Unlike crush bends, mandrel bending uses a flexible rod inside the tube to keep the walls from collapsing during the bend. This ensures consistent diameter and wall thickness throughout the curve, which is crucial for preventing restrictions and maintaining the integrity of your custom build. You get a clean, smooth transition that's essential for performance and durability.

With leg lengths of 4 inches and 12 inches from the tangent points, this piece offers a good amount of straight section on either side of the bend for connecting to other tubing or components. It's a well-built piece that fabricators often reach for when they need a reliable, clean bend for their custom projects.
