Stainless Bros 601-05056-3100 Mandrel Bend Elbow Tight Radius Exhaust Pipe - 3 90 1D 16ga SS304

The Stainless Bros 601-05056-3100 is a precision-engineered 3-inch diameter 90-degree mandrel bent elbow designed for high-performance exhaust and intake systems. This tight radius bend features a 1D (one diameter) centerline radius of 3 inches, providing maximum flow in compact installations where space is at a premium.

Key Specifications:

• Material: 304 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance and durability
• Diameter: 3 inches
• Bend Angle: 90 degrees
• Centerline Radius: 1D (3-inch CLR) tight radius design
• Wall Thickness: 16 gauge (.065 inches)
• Manufacturing: Mandrel bent to maintain consistent inner diameter throughout the bend
• Configuration: No legs - pure 90-degree bend for maximum fabrication flexibility

Mandrel bending ensures smooth, unrestricted flow by maintaining constant tube diameter through the entire bend, eliminating the restrictions found in crush-bent alternatives. The legless design allows fabricators to cut and fit the bend precisely to their application requirements. Ideal for custom exhaust systems, turbo applications, intercooler piping, and any high-flow tubing project requiring tight-radius bends with minimal flow restriction.
