Vibrant 18224 120-Degree Mandrel Bend 1.625in OD x 4in CLR 304 Stainless Steel Tubing

The Vibrant 18224 is a 120-degree mandrel bend precision-formed from T304 stainless steel, featuring a 1.625-inch outer diameter and a 4-inch centerline radius (CLR). Mandrel bending preserves the round cross-section of the tube throughout the entire bend, eliminating kinks, ripples, and flow restrictions that are common with crush-bent alternatives.

Vibrant's 304 stainless steel tubing is consistent both dimensionally and in material composition, and requires minimal preparation when welding. The material's high chromium content delivers excellent resistance to heat, corrosion, and the acidic environment of exhaust gases, making it well-suited for custom exhaust fabrication, headers, intercooler piping, and other high-performance applications.

Key Features:

• Bend Angle: 120 degrees
• Outer Diameter (OD): 1.625 in.
• Centerline Radius (CLR): 4 in.
• Material: T304 stainless steel
• Construction: Mandrel-bent for consistent wall thickness and unrestricted flow
• Part of Vibrant's full range of bends from 15° to 180°
• Weld-ready finish with minimal surface preparation required
• Capable of withstanding high heat, acidic, and corrosive conditions

The Vibrant 18224 is an ideal building block for custom exhaust systems, turbo and intercooler plumbing, intake fabrication, and other precision tube work where maintaining interior diameter through the bend is critical to performance.
