Vibrant Performance 13043 3.5-Inch Stainless Steel 90-Degree Mandrel Exhaust Bend

The Vibrant Performance 13043 exhaust bend is designed for fabricating smooth, high-flow exhaust and tubing systems. This 90-degree mandrel bend features a 3.5-inch outside diameter and a 5.5-inch centerline radius, providing a consistent curve that helps minimize airflow restriction compared with sharply kinked or crush-bent tubing. It is well suited for custom exhaust construction, turbocharger piping, intercooler plumbing, and other performance applications requiring precise tube routing.
Constructed from durable stainless steel, the Vibrant Performance 13043 offers corrosion resistance and reliable service in demanding automotive environments. The 16-gauge wall provides a balance of strength, fabrication flexibility, and long-term durability, while the mandrel-bent design maintains the tube’s internal diameter throughout the bend. The equal 8-inch legs provide practical straight sections for positioning, trimming, welding, and fitting during custom installation.
This exhaust bend is supplied as an individual piece and can be combined with straight tubing, reducers, connectors, and additional bends to create a complete exhaust or intake system. Its clean stainless construction is suitable for TIG or MIG fabrication when properly prepared and welded using techniques appropriate for the material. Choose the Vibrant Performance 13043 when dependable fitment, smooth transitions, and professional-quality fabrication are essential.
