45 Bend Aluminized 2.5id x 2.5od 4in Radius

The DYNOMAX 45 Bend Aluminized 2.5ID x 2.5OD 4in Radius exhaust bend is a precision-engineered exhaust component designed for custom exhaust system fabrication and restoration work. This 45-degree mandrel bend accommodates 2.5-inch diameter piping and features a 4-inch centerline radius, delivering smooth flow characteristics essential for efficient exhaust scavenging in performance and street applications. Constructed from 16-gauge aluminized steel, this exhaust bend combines corrosion resistance with structural durability for long-term reliability in both wet and dry climates.

The 4-inch radius specification represents a balanced design that minimizes turbulence while allowing practical installation in compact engine bay configurations. Aluminized steel construction provides superior corrosion protection compared to bare steel, extending service life in salt-air environments and regions exposed to road salt during winter months. The 6x6-inch leg dimensions accommodate standard exhaust clamp and bracket installations, making this bend compatible with most universal exhaust assembly methods. At 1.59 lbs, the component remains lightweight without sacrificing rigidity, a critical factor in vibration-free exhaust mounting.

This product serves fabricators, restoration shops, and performance enthusiasts building custom exhaust systems for muscle cars, hot rods, and modified street vehicles. The 45-degree angle is fundamental for routing exhaust away from body panels while maintaining proper collector positioning, whether constructing header systems, cat-back assemblies, or full custom exhaust paths. Individual bend components allow builders to tailor system geometry precisely, avoiding compromise-design universal kits and achieving optimal exhaust scavenging for their specific engine configuration.
