Description
Arlows aluminium pipe bend 90° tight radius AlMgSi0.5
Tight 90° bend for cramped engine bay installations. Consistent wall thickness, weldable, no thin spots in the curve.
Mandrel bend in AlMgSi0.5 (EN AW-6060). The tight radius saves space, the section stays 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?
90 DEGREE TIGHT
Full angle for tight spaces. Formed from one piece, or cut into 3 x 30° or 2 x 45° 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.
TIGHT RADIUS
Minimal space requirement. Example: 45 mm radius at 50 mm outer diameter. Ideal behind the cooler pack or in a duct.
Use cases
- Charge air piping and charge pipe routing in tight spaces
- 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
