The Vibrant Performance 321 stainless steel mandrel bend performs better than 304 stainless steel at prolonged elevated operating temperatures, from 800 to 1500 degrees F, which makes it well suited to forced induction applications. 321 stainless steel also offers superior corrosion resistance and resists tensile stress and stress fractures better than 304 stainless steel. This bend is a 90 degree bend measuring 2.25 in outside diameter with a 3.35 in centerline radius and an 18 gauge wall.
