They are manufactured from high-quality Swedish mild steel or stainless steel.
The bend is created by forming two pieces of steel and welding them together.
While durable, they are primarily designed for competition use, bespoke applications, or kit cars where precise and tight routing is essential. Professional installation is recommended.
A range of sizes is available, including 1.75 inch, 2 inch, and 3 inch variants, catering to different exhaust system diameters.
Professional welding is strongly recommended to ensure a secure, leak-free, and durable installation, especially for high-performance applications.
Measure the outer diameter of the exhaust pipe you intend to connect the bend to. Select the Jetex bend with the matching diameter.
The 'tight' 90-degree bend allows for sharp turns in confined spaces, which is crucial for custom exhaust routing where clearance is limited.
Ensure precise measurements of the existing exhaust pipe and the intended routing path. Professional cutting and welding may be required for optimal alignment.
Verify the integrity of all welds. Re-weld any areas showing signs of leaks. Ensure a complete and robust seal between the bend and existing pipes.
Clean the affected area and apply a high-temperature exhaust paint or protective coating. Regular cleaning and inspection can help prevent premature corrosion.
Setup:
Installation of the Jetex Tight 90 Degree Exhaust Bend typically involves cutting the existing exhaust pipe to size and welding the bend into place. Professional welding is recommended to ensure a secure, leak-free, and durable connection, especially for high-performance or competition vehicles. Ensure the selected bend size matches the diameter of your existing exhaust system.
Compatibility:
This exhaust bend is designed for use with custom or performance exhaust systems. It is compatible with a range of vehicles, particularly those undergoing modifications for competition, bespoke builds, or kit car projects. The specific diameter of the bend must match the exhaust tubing it is intended to connect with. Ensure to check compatibility with your specific vehicle model and exhaust system diameter.
Care:
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Jetex exhaust bend, clean it periodically with a damp cloth. For mild steel variants, consider applying a high-temperature exhaust paint or coating to further enhance corrosion resistance, especially in environments prone to moisture. Stainless steel variants offer superior corrosion resistance and generally require less maintenance. Avoid harsh abrasive cleaners that could damage the surface finish.
