V-Band Flange Assembly For 1.5In O.D. Tubing

The VIBRANT PERFORMANCE V-Band Flange Assembly for 1.5-inch O.D. tubing (Part No. 1486) is a precision stainless steel coupling component designed for high-performance exhaust and intake manifold systems. V-band clamp assemblies provide a quick-disconnect, leak-free connection method widely used in custom turbo systems, race applications, and modular exhaust builds where reliability and repeatability are critical.

This assembly accommodates 1.5-inch outer diameter tubing and features stainless steel construction throughout, offering superior corrosion resistance compared to mild steel alternatives—especially important in salt-air environments or high-heat exhaust applications. The natural finish preserves the material's protective oxide layer. V-band technology eliminates the need for traditional flanged bolts and reduces assembly time, allowing users to break the connection and reassemble it repeatedly without compromising seal integrity. The radial clamping action distributes load evenly across the joint interface, minimizing stress concentration and vibration-induced leakage.

This component is essential for builders working on custom turbocharger installations, modular header systems, and performance exhaust builds where quick-release connections simplify maintenance and tuning adjustments. The 1.5-inch sizing fits a broad range of mid-displacement engines and supports both atmospheric and forced-induction applications. VIBRANT PERFORMANCE is recognized in the performance automotive market for precision exhaust tuning components, and this assembly represents their standard for flow-optimized coupling design.

Whether you're assembling a standalone turbo system, replacing a worn clamp assembly, or upgrading to modular exhaust construction, this V-band flange delivers the repeatability and durability expected in competition and high-performance street builds. Individual assembly—check your tubing dimensions and clamp specifications before ordering.
