If you're diving into a custom project, you might want to check out this HPS 1" 90 Degree Bend Aluminum Elbow. Made from 16-gauge 6061-T6 aluminum, this piece is a solid choice for anyone tinkering with DIY air intakes, cooling systems, or turbo intercooler piping. It's got a leg length of 6 inches on either side and a center line radius of 2 inches, which means it fits nicely into tight spaces without a hassle.
Now, let’s talk about the material. 6061 aluminum is a go-to for a reason. It's tough, versatile, and easy on the wallet compared to other heat-treatable alloys. Just keep in mind that while you can polish this stuff up to a nice shine, it’s softer than you might think. So, if you’re sanding or machining, take it easy near the welds—too much material removal can weaken the joints.
This elbow has an outside diameter of 1" (that’s 25mm for those who prefer metric) and a wall thickness of 0.065" (1.65mm), giving you a sturdy feel without being overly heavy. Plus, it’s all made right here in the USA, so you know you’re getting quality craftsmanship.
