S/S 1-3/4in 90 Deg Bend w/ 1-3/4in Radius

The Vibrant Performance Stainless Steel 1-3/4 inch 90 Degree Bend with 1-3/4 inch Radius (SKU VIB13034) is a mandrel-bent exhaust component engineered for custom exhaust system builders and performance automotive applications. This 16-gauge stainless steel bend delivers the precise geometry and durability required for high-temperature exhaust routing, whether fabricating a street rod, performance truck, or racing platform where exhaust flow efficiency directly impacts engine performance.

The mandrel-bent construction ensures consistent wall thickness and interior diameter throughout the bend, eliminating collapse or kinking that occurs with inferior press-bent or seam-welded alternatives. The 1-3/4 inch diameter tubing and tight 1-3/4 inch radius create a 90-degree turn with minimal turbulence, a critical factor in minimizing exhaust backpressure and supporting consistent scavenging across the RPM range. The 5-inch and 12-inch leg lengths provide flexible integration into tight engine compartments or custom routing scenarios, while 16-gauge stainless steel resists corrosion, thermal cycling, and vibration fatigue common in high-output environments.

This component suits fabricators, hot rod builders, and performance shops assembling full custom exhaust systems where individual bends are welded together to achieve specific vehicle geometry and performance targets. It is equally applicable to turbo manifold construction, intercooler piping, or any application requiring reliable, corrosion-resistant 90-degree tubing bends that maintain flow characteristics. Weighing 1.86 lbs and shipped as a single unit, this bend integrates seamlessly into larger exhaust or intake assemblies.
