Description
Arlows aluminium pipe bend 45° medium radius AlMgSi0.5
45° bend for clean direction changes. Consistent wall thickness, weldable, no thin spots in the curve.
Mandrel bend in AlMgSi0.5 (EN AW-6060). The medium radius keeps the flow section open. 3 mm wall thickness throughout. Matches the Arlows straight tubes and other bends in the same alloy. Diameter is selected in the variant.
Why this bend?
45 DEGREE
Practical angle for charge air and intake. Formed from one piece, or cut smaller if the angle is too large.
3 MM WALL
Consistent wall thickness with no weak spots in the bend. Pressure resistant for charge air and intake.
WELDABLE
AlMgSi0.5 welds cleanly with TIG or MIG. Laser etched Arlows logo. Same alloy as the straight tubes and ends.
MEDIUM RADIUS
Compromise between space and flow. Example: 45 mm radius at 50 mm outer diameter. Less turbulence than a tight bend.
Use cases
- Charge air piping and charge pipe routing
- Intake tubes and cold air routing
- Custom hard lines for water or oil coolers
- Exhaust in motorsport (watch temperature range)
- Not for fuel without material check
