Straight Tubing 2.00in O.D. - 16 Gauge Wall

The Vibrant Performance Straight Tubing 2.00in O.D. - 16 Gauge Wall is a premium exhaust pipe component engineered for builders and mechanics fabricating custom exhaust systems. Whether you're constructing a high-performance street machine, race vehicle, or restoration project, this straight tubing serves as the foundational building block for leak-free, durable exhaust flow paths. At 39.375 inches in length with a 2-inch outer diameter, it provides the versatility needed to route exhaust gases efficiently while maintaining structural integrity under sustained heat and vibration.

This tubing is manufactured from stainless steel, a critical material choice that resists corrosion, thermal fatigue, and rust—essential properties when managing exhaust temperatures that routinely exceed 1,200°F. The 16-gauge wall thickness (approximately 0.0598 inches) strikes a balance between rigidity and workability, providing adequate strength for turbo and naturally aspirated applications without excessive weight or welding difficulty. The natural finish allows integration into both aesthetic and functional builds, accommodating polished, ceramic-coated, or wrapped applications without pre-treatment complications.

Professional fabricators and experienced DIY builders benefit most from this straight tubing when designing custom primary pipes, mid-pipes, or secondary sections requiring precise length and diameter control. Its 5.43-pound weight and compact 40.5-inch packaged length make it practical for shipping and installation logistics. Vibrant Performance's commitment to consistent wall thickness and dimensional accuracy ensures compatibility with slip-fit connections, flanged joints, and mandrel-bent transitions commonly found in modern exhaust engineering. For anyone building custom headers, intake manifolds converted to exhaust duty, or full turbo systems from the ground up, this tubing delivers the reliability and flexibility required for professional-grade results.
