2.375in (60.5mm) O.D. 12 0 Degree Mandrel Bend

The 2.375in (60.5mm) O.D. 12 0 Degree Mandrel Bend by VIBRANT PERFORMANCE is a precision exhaust tubing component engineered for custom automotive fabrication, performance exhaust systems, and turbo manifold work. Built for mechanics and fabricators who demand clean, efficient airflow paths without kinks or collapse, this mandrel bend eliminates the guesswork when routing high-temperature piping through tight engine bays. Whether you're building a custom hot rod exhaust, upgrading a turbo intercooler piping setup, or designing a complete intake manifold rework, this component provides the structural integrity and flow characteristics critical to modern engine performance.

Mandrel bending technology preserves internal tube diameter throughout the bend, preventing the wall collapse and flow restriction that occurs with traditional tube bending methods. The 120-degree angle configuration allows precise directional changes in tight spaces while maintaining consistent cross-sectional area for optimal exhaust scavenging or intake charge flow. VIBRANT PERFORMANCE's mandrel bends are manufactured to OEM tolerances, ensuring reliable fitment and repeatability across multiple builds. The 2.375-inch outer diameter works seamlessly with standard automotive piping sizes and connects cleanly to flanges, reducers, and adapters commonly found in performance tuning applications.

This component serves experienced fabricators, turbo installers, and enthusiast builders tackling custom exhaust systems, cold-side turbo plumbing, or intake tract modifications on street cars, drag vehicles, and naturally aspirated builds alike. Installation requires basic welding knowledge and standard shop equipment; the mandrel bend simply integrates into your existing tube routing as part of a complete system. At 2.85 lbs, it remains lightweight enough for performance-oriented builds while delivering the durability needed for continuous high-temperature operation and vibration resistance in demanding engine environments.
