U-Bend Mild Steel 1.625 x 2.5in Radius 16 Gauge

The U-Bend Mild Steel 1.625 x 2.5in Radius 16 Gauge is an essential component for custom exhaust fabrication and automotive restoration work. Built for mechanics, fabricators, and performance enthusiasts who demand precision tubing for mandrel-bent exhaust systems, this mild steel u-bend offers the structural integrity needed for high-temperature exhaust environments.

Manufactured from 16-gauge mild steel, this tube delivers excellent workability for welding and bending operations while maintaining durability under exhaust heat cycles. The 1.625-inch outer diameter and 2.5-inch radius bend specification are industry-standard dimensions that integrate seamlessly with common exhaust piping sizes and mandrel-bent tubing standards.

Fabricators, performance shops, and DIY builders rely on this u-bend for downpipe transitions, turbo outlet piping, and resonator connections where tight radius bends are non-negotiable. The 2.5-inch bend radius minimizes exhaust restriction and flow separation, critical for maintaining scavenging efficiency in custom exhaust systems.
