- 90 Degree Mandrel Bend
The Vibrant 321 Stainless Steel 90 Degree Mandrel Bend is engineered for high-performance automotive applications, particularly in forced induction systems where durability under elevated temperatures is critical. Constructed from 321 stainless steel, this mandrel bend withstands prolonged exposure to temperatures ranging from 800°F to 1500°F (427°C to 816°C), outperforming standard 304 stainless steel in high-heat environments. Its superior corrosion resistance and tensile strength make it an ideal choice for turbocharged or supercharged exhaust systems that operate under extreme conditions. The mandrel bending process ensures smooth airflow with minimal restrictions, optimizing exhaust flow and overall engine efficiency.
The product features a 2.25-inch outside diameter (OD), a 3.375-inch centerline radius, and a 0.049-inch wall thickness, providing robust structural integrity while maintaining flexibility for custom exhaust routing. With a 6-inch leg length from the tangent, this bend offers versatile installation options. Made from 18-gauge stainless steel, it combines durability with a lightweight profile suitable for performance-oriented builds. The mandrel bend is designed with precision to ensure consistent shape and performance across multiple installations, making it a reliable component for automotive enthusiasts and professional mechanics alike. Whether upgrading an existing exhaust system or designing a custom setup, this Vibrant mandrel bend offers excellent thermal resilience and corrosion resistance, ensuring long-lasting performance in demanding environments.
