Key Features:
This mandrel bend delivers quality and performance through thoughtful design and material selection. Key features include:
- Constructed from premium 6063 aluminum tubing known for its strength and lightweight properties.
- Mandrel-bent to maintain a consistent 3.0" diameter throughout the 90-degree curve, ensuring smooth airflow and minimizing turbulence.
- Polished to a mirror finish for corrosion resistance and a professional appearance in any engine bay or exhaust setup.
- Wall thickness of 1.5mm provides durability while keeping weight low.
- Centerline radius of 4.50" and leg length from tangent of 2.50" for precise fitment and easy integration into custom piping systems.
- Compatible with both pressurized (turbocharged or supercharged) and naturally aspirated applications.
- Universal fitment designed to work with most vehicle models and custom builds.
Construction & Design:
The bend is crafted from 6063 aluminum, a material prized for its excellent corrosion resistance, weldability, and strength-to-weight ratio. The mandrel bending process ensures the tubing maintains its full diameter through the curve, preventing any restrictions that can reduce airflow or cause pressure drops. This results in improved efficiency and performance in your intake or exhaust system.
The polished mirror finish not only enhances the visual appeal but also provides a protective layer against oxidation and environmental wear. The precise dimensions of the centerline radius and leg length allow for straightforward installation and integration into a variety of custom piping layouts.
Installation & Fitment:
This 3.0" 90 degree mandrel bend is designed for universal compatibility, fitting most vehicle models and custom applications. It can be used in both pressurized and naturally aspirated systems without modification.
Installation typically requires standard fabrication techniques such as welding or clamping, depending on your setup. No cutting, drilling, or special tuning is required to use this bend itself, making it a convenient and reliable component for your build.
