Vibrant Performance 2.75" (70mm) O.D. 60 Degree Mandrel Bend

Built for Custom Exhaust Systems, Headers, Downpipes, and Intercooler Piping

Part #: 13071

Overview

The Vibrant Performance 2.75" (70mm) O.D. 60 Degree Mandrel Bend is a high-quality, precision-engineered pipe designed for automotive enthusiasts and professional fabricators who want to create custom exhaust components, headers, downpipes, intercooler piping, and other high-performance piping systems. Crafted from premium T34 stainless steel, this mandrel bend offers excellent durability and resistance to harsh conditions, making it ideal for demanding applications that require reliable performance and longevity.

Whether you're building a custom exhaust system for increased horsepower, improved airflow, or enhanced sound, this mandrel bend provides the perfect solution. Its precise 60-degree angle allows for smooth, consistent bends that minimize flow restrictions and turbulence, ensuring optimal performance. The high chromium and nickel content of the T34 stainless steel makes it highly resistant to corrosion, heat, and acidic environments, making it suitable for both street and race applications.

Key Features

Vibrant's 2.75" mandrel bend is designed with performance and durability in mind, offering several key features:

• Premium Material: Made from T34 stainless steel, a non-magnetic alloy with high chromium and nickel content, providing superior resistance to corrosion, heat, and acids.
• Precise Mandrel Bending: Manufactured with mandrel tooling to ensure smooth, consistent bends that maintain the pipe's cross-sectional area, reducing flow restrictions and maximizing exhaust flow efficiency.
• Optimal Angle: Features a 60-degree centerline radius, ideal for tight turns and complex piping layouts without sacrificing flow quality.
• Robust Construction: .65" (1.65mm) wall thickness offers strength and durability, suitable for high-performance and heavy-duty applications.
• Versatile Use: Perfect for building custom exhaust systems, headers, downpipes, intercooler piping, and other custom piping projects.
• Corrosion Resistance: T34 stainless steel's high chromium and nickel content make it highly resistant to rust and corrosion, even in high-temperature or corrosive environments.
• High Heat Tolerance: Suitable for applications involving high exhaust temperatures and demanding conditions.

Construction & Design

This mandrel bend is meticulously manufactured from T34 stainless steel, a high-grade alloy known for its exceptional strength and corrosion resistance. The pipe features a precise 60-degree bend with a 4.125" centerline radius, allowing for tight turns while maintaining smooth airflow. The .65" (1.65mm) wall thickness ensures durability and structural integrity, even under high stress or heat. The mandrel bending process ensures that the pipe's cross-sectional area remains consistent throughout the bend, minimizing flow restrictions and maximizing performance. Its high-quality construction makes it an excellent choice for custom fabrication projects that demand reliability and precision.

Installation & Fitment

This mandrel bend is designed for professional or experienced fabricators familiar with custom piping projects. It requires cutting, welding, and fitting to your specific application. The precise dimensions and high-quality material ensure a clean, reliable fit when properly installed. No additional modifications or special tools are necessary beyond standard fabrication equipment. As a versatile component, it can be integrated into various custom exhaust and piping configurations to suit your performance goals.
