Vibrant Performance 2869 180-Degree Aluminum U-Bend, 3-Inch Diameter, 2-1/2-Inch Legs

The Vibrant Performance 2869 180-Degree Aluminum U-Bend is designed for custom intake, intercooler, turbocharger, exhaust, and fluid-routing applications. Constructed from lightweight aluminum tubing, this mandrel-bent elbow provides a smooth, consistent passage that helps support efficient airflow while minimizing the restrictions commonly associated with sharply bent tubing. The polished finish delivers a clean appearance and makes the component well suited for professional fabrication projects and performance vehicle builds.
The 3-inch diameter tubing and 180-degree U-bend configuration offer a practical solution for routing tubes through tight or complex spaces. Its uniform bend geometry helps simplify fabrication and supports accurate alignment when creating custom piping systems. The tubing features a 4.5-inch bend radius, 3.5-inch straight legs, and 1.5-millimeter wall thickness, providing a balance of strength, weight, and workability for a broad range of automotive and industrial installations. The mandrel-bent construction helps maintain a consistent internal profile through the curve.
