304 Stainless Bent Elbow 2.500 45-Degree

The 304 Stainless Bent Elbow 2.500 45-Degree by WOOLF AIRCRAFT PRODUCTS is a marine-grade plumbing fitting engineered for demanding water applications where corrosion resistance and reliability are non-negotiable. Whether you're rebuilding a through-hull cooling system, installing raw water intake lines, or upgrading exhaust manifold risers on a saltwater vessel, this 45-degree elbow handles the job with precision. Anglers and boaters who spend extended time on the water understand that standard fittings fail—this stainless steel component is built to last decades in harsh marine environments.

Manufactured from 304 stainless steel, this bent elbow resists rust, pitting, and galvanic corrosion inherent to saltwater exposure and constant moisture. The 2.500-inch nominal dimension accommodates mid-to-large displacement cooling and circulation systems found on center consoles, offshore sport fishers, and commercial vessels. Its 45-degree angle allows efficient directional changes in tight engine spaces without the stress concentration of tighter bends or sharp elbows, reducing turbulence and pressure drop in high-flow cooling circuits. At 1.87 lbs, the compact 4.85 x 14.1-inch profile fits snugly into confined bilge areas where space is premium.

Experienced marine mechanics and DIY boat builders specify WOOLF AIRCRAFT PRODUCTS fittings for OEM-grade reliability without the premium price tag. This elbow integrates seamlessly into existing 2.500-inch stainless piping systems, raw water cooling loops, and exhaust risers on inboards, outboards, and jet drives. Installation requires standard hose clamps or threaded connections depending on your system's design—verify your existing port diameter before ordering to ensure compatibility with your vessel's plumbing architecture.
