Vibrant Performance 13826 180-Degree Mandrel Exhaust Bend, 2.25-Inch Diameter, Stainless Steel

The Vibrant Performance 13826 180-Degree Mandrel Exhaust Bend is designed for fabricating smooth, high-flow exhaust systems and custom tubing assemblies. Made from stainless steel with a natural finish, this U-shaped bend provides consistent tubing geometry while helping maintain efficient exhaust gas flow through the curve. Its 2.25-inch outside diameter is compatible with a wide range of performance exhaust components and fabrication projects.
The mandrel-bent construction helps prevent the flattening, wrinkling, and internal restrictions commonly associated with lower-quality bends. With an 18-gauge wall, the Vibrant Performance 13826 offers a practical balance of strength, durability, and weldability for custom exhaust work. The 180-degree configuration and extended legs provide flexibility when routing tubing around chassis components, suspension parts, and other clearance-sensitive areas.
This stainless steel exhaust bend is supplied as an individual piece and can be cut, positioned, and welded to create headers, downpipes, turbocharger exhaust systems, muffler connections, and other custom applications. Its natural stainless finish is suitable for installations where a clean, functional appearance is preferred or where the tubing will be polished, coated, or otherwise finished during fabrication. The Vibrant Performance name represents dependable components for performance-oriented automotive builds and professional exhaust fabrication.
