Vibrant Performance 2697 1-7/8 in. O.D. 180-Degree Stainless Steel Exhaust U-Bend

The Vibrant Performance 2697 exhaust U-bend is designed for custom exhaust fabrication, repair work, and performance vehicle applications. This 180-degree mandrel-bent tube features a 1-7/8 in. outside diameter and a tight 3 in. centerline radius, providing smooth directional changes while helping maintain consistent internal flow. The compact U-bend profile is well suited for routing exhaust tubing through confined areas without the deformation commonly associated with crush bending.
Manufactured from durable 16-gauge stainless steel, the Vibrant Performance 2697 offers corrosion resistance and dependable strength for demanding under-vehicle and engine-bay environments. Its smooth mandrel-bent construction supports clean fitment and a professional appearance, while the straight legs provide useful material for positioning, trimming, and welding during custom fabrication. The component is supplied as one exhaust bend for projects requiring precise tube alignment and durable results.
Designed for compatibility with 1-7/8 in. exhaust tubing, this stainless steel U-bend can be incorporated into turbocharger systems, headers, downpipes, exhaust rerouting projects, and other custom tubing assemblies. The Vibrant Performance brand is recognized for fabrication components that help builders create efficient, accurately routed exhaust systems. Verify tubing diameter, bend radius, clearance, and welding requirements before installation to ensure proper fitment for your application.
