60 Degree Elbow 3-1/2in

The Schoenfeld 60 Degree Elbow 3-1/2in (Part No. 3560) is a mandrel-bent exhaust bend engineered for high-temperature engine applications. This 60-degree elbow features a 3.5-inch diameter and 5-inch radius design, optimized for smooth exhaust gas flow and minimal turbulence. Fabricated from 18-gauge steel with 6 x 1.5-inch legs, it delivers the durability required in performance engine builds where precision routing and heat resistance are non-negotiable.

Mandrel bending preserves the tube's inner diameter throughout the bend, preventing the flow restrictions that occur with standard die-bent elbows. The 5-inch radius bend geometry balances compact packaging with optimal exhaust scavenging characteristics. At 2.41 lbs, this component integrates efficiently into tight engine bay layouts without adding unnecessary weight. The 18-gauge steel construction handles sustained thermal cycling and vibration typical of both street and competition engine environments, resisting warping and cracking over extended service intervals.

This Schoenfeld elbow suits builders assembling custom exhaust manifolds, performance carbureted engines, and modified powerplants where OEM routing is impractical or suboptimal. The 3.5-inch diameter accommodates mid-range to larger-displacement engines requiring robust exhaust flow. Experienced engine builders favor mandrel components for their consistent flow characteristics and longevity compared to budget alternatives. Proper installation requires welding expertise and heat-rated gaskets rated for sustained exhaust temperatures.
