Aluminum Bent Elbow 3.000 45-Degree

The Aluminum Bent Elbow 3.000 45-Degree from WOOLF AIRCRAFT PRODUCTS is a precision mandrel-bent aluminum tube designed for custom intake manifolds, turbo piping, intercooler ducting, and coolant lines in high-performance automotive applications. Built for enthusiasts and professional mechanics who demand reliable airflow management and tight routing in engine bays where space is critical, this bent elbow eliminates the need for multiple fittings and welded connections that compromise flow and add weight.

Manufactured from 6061-T6 aluminum alloy with a 3-inch outer diameter and 3-inch centerline radius, this component delivers excellent strength-to-weight ratio and superior corrosion resistance compared to mild steel alternatives. The 0.065-inch wall thickness provides structural integrity under boost pressure and thermal cycling while remaining lightweight—at just 0.91 pounds, it won't add unnecessary mass to your suspension or engine package. The 45-degree bend geometry is ideal for transitioning between vertically and horizontally oriented piping runs without introducing turbulence or excessive pressure drop that would rob your engine of performance gains.

This bent elbow is essential for street and track builds, turbo conversions, and engine bay redesigns where OEM hard-pipe routing isn't feasible or optimal. Professional fabricators and DIY builders alike rely on WOOLF aircraft-grade tubing for its dimensional accuracy and repeatability across multiple builds. The natural aluminum finish is ready for polishing, anodizing, or powder coating to match your engine bay aesthetic. Compatible with standard 3-inch hose clamps and barbed fittings, installation requires basic hand tools and basic welding or mechanical fastening knowledge.
