Vibrant 13844 180 Degree Mandrel Bend 2.00" OD x 3.00" CLR 16 Gauge

The Vibrant 13844 is a precision-engineered 180-degree mandrel bent aluminum tube designed for high-performance exhaust and intake systems. This U-bend features a 2.00-inch outside diameter with a smooth 3.00-inch centerline radius, providing optimal flow characteristics while minimizing turbulence and pressure drop.

Key Specifications:

• 180-degree bend angle for complete directional change
• 2.00-inch outside diameter (OD) tubing
• 3.00-inch centerline radius (CLR) for smooth flow transitions
• 16-gauge wall thickness (.065 inches) for strength and durability
• Mandrel bent construction maintains consistent inner diameter throughout the bend
• T-6061 aluminum construction for lightweight performance
• Polished finish for professional appearance

Mandrel bending ensures the tube maintains its full inner diameter through the entire bend, unlike crush bending which can restrict flow. This makes Vibrant's mandrel bends ideal for custom exhaust fabrication, turbo plumbing, intercooler piping, and intake systems where maximum flow and precise fitment are critical.
