Vibrant T304 Stainless Steel 45° Mandrel Bend Elbow – 3.5" OD | 3.5" Centerline Radius | Brushed

Build with precision using the Vibrant T304 Stainless Steel 45° Mandrel Bend Elbow — a weld-ready, brushed stainless fabrication component for custom exhaust, intake, intercooler piping, and turbo system builds. Mandrel-bent for consistent wall thickness and unrestricted flow through the bend, this 3.5" OD elbow features a 3.5" centerline radius (1D tight radius) and short leg lengths to minimize waste and simplify routing in tight spaces. The brushed T304 stainless finish requires virtually no preparation for welding, making it a favorite among professional fabricators and serious enthusiasts alike.

Key Features

• T304 Stainless Steel: T304 grade stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance, high-temperature performance, and long-term durability in exhaust and intake applications
• Mandrel Bent: Mandrel bending process maintains consistent wall thickness through the bend — no kinking or flow restriction, ensuring unrestricted airflow or exhaust gas flow through the elbow
• 3.5" Centerline Radius (1D Tight Radius): 3.5" centerline radius (equal to 1x the pipe OD — a tight radius bend) with short leg lengths for compact routing in tight engine bay and exhaust system spaces with minimal material waste
• Brushed Finish: Premium brushed stainless finish — requires virtually no surface preparation before welding, saving fabrication time and delivering a clean, professional appearance
• Weld-Ready: Ready to weld straight out of the box — compatible with TIG welding for clean, strong, professional-quality joints
• Universal Fitment: Suitable for custom exhaust systems, intake piping, intercooler piping, turbo inlet/outlet piping, and any other 3.5" OD stainless fabrication application
• Vibrant Quality: Manufactured by Vibrant Performance — a trusted name in stainless steel fabrication components for performance and motorsport applications
