Product Description

The Vibrant Performance 13042 is a 90-degree mandrel bent tube section crafted from T304 stainless steel at the popular 3.000 in. O.D. diameter - one of the most widely used sizes in exhaust, downpipe, and intercooler fabrication. With a 5.000 in. centerline radius and 16-gauge (0.065 in.) wall thickness, this bend maintains consistent internal diameter through the full 90 degrees - eliminating the flow restriction and turbulence associated with crush-bent tubing for better exhaust scavenging and reduced backpressure.

T304 stainless steel provides exceptional resistance to heat, corrosion, and acidic exhaust gases, making the 13042 suitable for both street and race fabrication builds at the 3 in. diameter range. The consistent dimensions and raw finish require minimal preparation before welding and integrate seamlessly with Vibrant's complete range of mandrel bend tubing. Sold individually and backed by a 5-Year Limited Warranty.
