I'm looking for a place that I can get mandrel bends cheap. The problem is I need 3.5" or 4" for my down pipe. Mild steel will work and price is a major concern.


Thanks,

 

try
www.burnsstainless.com

 

You can get it all from summitracing.com. They sell up to 3.5"

 

Another good source is: www.spdexhaust.com

Well... what i would like is to make a tube, all soldered and send it to them to have it completely mandrel bent... at all possible?

 

Another option is www.mandrelbending.com

Highlander, Stainless Works has this capability in-house. I'm sure you could send them a pipe and they could replicate it in a one-piece form.

 

There's a place in Litchfield that can do mandrel bends up to 6" in diameter. I can't think of their name right now, but I'm sure someone else from Minnesota will know who I'm talking about.

 

Birdie that is good... i might send them something.. it owuld be awesome.. as the peice, ceramic coated, would look SO SO great.

 

If cost is of concern don't go here! they do have excellent stuff though, just pricey.

 

So far www.mandrelbending.com has looked the best. IF you buy 5 or more the price drops in half for mild steel, $43 for one, $20 for 5+. Atleast I think I'm reading the site correctly. The only problem is that they are 90* bends not u-bends, but I think they'll work.

I can get 4" mandrel bends(90s) down the road at a truck store for about 25-27 dollars a piece. I could help you out if you need it in getting them to you, although the shipping may not make it worth it.

 

I just checked the link in Roosters post. Those prices are awesome. 34 bucks for a 180degree 4".

 

I'm looking for a 5.5-6'' to 3.5'' reducer.. does anyone know where i can find one?
