2-1/2in x .065 Tubing 45 Degree Mandrel Bend

The STAINLESS WORKS 2-1/2 inch x .065 tubing 45 degree mandrel bend is a precision exhaust component designed for fabricators and performance enthusiasts building custom exhaust systems, intake manifolds, and turbo piping. This mandrel bend is essential for anyone stepping beyond bolt-on modifications into serious custom fabrication work.

Constructed from high-quality stainless steel, this mandrel bend maintains consistent tubing diameter throughout the curve—eliminating kinks, crimps, and flow restrictions that come from trying to bend tubing by hand or with inferior equipment. The mandrel-bent construction uses an internal mandrel during the bending process to support the tube wall, preventing collapse, wrinkling, and wall thinning that degrades flow efficiency.

Builders working with LS engines, small-block Chevrolets, and other performance applications will find this component ideal for mid-sized exhaust and intake applications on trucks and performance cars. Its precise bending ensures minimal pressure drop and turbulence, making it a reliable choice for high-performance builds.
