Vibrant 13013 T304 SS 120 Deg Mandrel Bend 3" OD 3" CLR 7"x12" Leg Lengths 16-Gauge

Vehicle Fitment

• Universal - No vehicle-specific fitment. Suitable for custom exhaust, downpipe, header, and intercooler piping fabrication on cars, trucks, and performance vehicles requiring 3.00" O.D. round tubing.

Fitment Notes

• Designed for use with 3.00" O.D. round exhaust tubing - confirm tube sizing before ordering.
• Professional welding or exhaust fabrication required for installation.
• Compatible with Vibrant's full T304 stainless steel tubing lineup including straight sections, couplings, and V-band flanges.
• 120° bend angle is ideal for reverse-direction routing, S-curve configurations, and tight underbody exhaust layouts.

Features

• Mandrel-bent T304 stainless steel maintains a consistent inner diameter throughout the full 120° sweep with no collapsing or flow restriction.
• 16-gauge (0.065 in.) wall thickness provides durable, rattle-free performance in both street and race applications.
• 120° bend angle enables sharp direction changes not achievable with standard 90° bends - ideal for complex routing layouts.
• T304 stainless steel resists heat, corrosion, and acidic exhaust gas exposure far better than mild steel alternatives.
• 12" long leg provides generous material for routing, trimming, and positioning into the exhaust system.
• 7" short leg delivers ample material for clean welding and secure fitment in tight spaces.
• Dimensionally consistent construction requires minimal surface preparation before TIG welding.
• Backed by Vibrant's 5-year limited warranty.

Product Description

The Vibrant Performance 13013 is a 120° mandrel-bent T304 stainless steel exhaust tube in 3.00" O.D., built for custom exhaust and performance piping fabrication that requires sharper directional changes than a standard 90° bend allows. The true mandrel bending process preserves the full 3.00" inner diameter through the entire 120° arc, eliminating the flow restriction and tube collapse that crush-bent alternatives introduce. At 16-gauge wall thickness and with a tight 3.00" centerline radius, this bend handles demanding underbody routing scenarios with ease.

The asymmetric 7"/12" leg layout provides a short positioning leg and a generous long leg for routing and trimming into place, giving fabricators flexibility across a wide variety of exhaust system configurations. T304 stainless construction ensures long-term resistance to heat, corrosion, and the acidic conditions of sustained exhaust gas exposure. Pair with Vibrant 3.00" straight tubing, couplings, resonators, or V-band assemblies to complete a full matched stainless fabrication from header to tailpipe.
