PROBLEM:
Pipe diameter reduction is a common problem with OEM style bent tubing.
In a sharp bend, this reduction may be as much as 20%.
A 2" diameter pipe may see a flow reduction equivelant to a 1-3/4" diameter pipe.
In effect, this reduces the entire system's flow capacity to the smaller dimension and
increases backpressure.
SOLUTION:
Mandrel bent
tubing maintains its diameter throughout the length of
tubing regardless of the bend. The flow capacity in the bend is
the same as the straight-away. No reductions equals no
added backpressure. All MagnaFlow system tubing is mandrel bent
to assure system-wide high-flow.
