U-Bend Mild Steel 2.250 x 4in Radius 16 Gauge

The PATRIOT EXHAUST U-Bend Mild Steel 2.250 x 4in Radius 16 Gauge (Model H7050) is a mandrel-bent exhaust component engineered for custom exhaust system fabrication and modification. This U-bend exhaust pipe features a 2.25-inch diameter tubing with a 4-inch radius bend and 6-inch legs, making it ideal for routing exhaust flow in tight engine compartment configurations while maintaining smooth gas flow characteristics.

Constructed from mild steel with 16-gauge wall thickness, this mandrel bend preserves the tubing's structural integrity throughout the curve, preventing the kinking and flow restrictions that occur with non-mandrel bending methods. The 4-inch radius design balances compact packaging with efficient exhaust velocity. At 2.69 lbs and measuring 10.3 x 2.3 x 11.1 inches, this component integrates seamlessly into custom exhaust builds where space constraints require precision bending angles. The 2.25-inch diameter sizing aligns with common mid-sized engine exhaust applications and pairs with standard muffler inlet/outlet configurations.

This exhaust bend serves fabricators, restoration specialists, and performance exhaust builders who require quality mandrel-bent components for custom system assembly. Whether constructing a street rod exhaust system, custom truck piping, or performance engine manifold routing, this U-bend provides the precision bending profile needed for clean installation and optimal exhaust scavenging. Mild steel construction allows welding and modification to match specific vehicle requirements and collector configurations.

For builders sourcing individual exhaust bend components, mandrel-bent tubing eliminates the fitment issues and performance losses associated with crush-bent alternatives. The PATRIOT EXHAUST H7050 U-bend exhaust pipe delivers consistent wall thickness and geometry across the full bend radius, supporting durable welds and long service life in high-temperature exhaust environments.
