Boyce Industries 3 Inch Oval Mandrel Bend Mild Steel Short Radius 30 45 60 90 Degree
When a round tube won’t clear the tunnel, the frame rail, or the floor pan, an oval mandrel bend gives you the same flow area in a profile that actually fits. Starting from a 3-inch round tube and ovalized on a short-radius die, these Boyce Industries bends hold their cross-section through the entire sweep, no kinks, no collapsed walls, so every weld you put to them goes exactly where the design calls for it.
Key Features
- Bent the “hard way”, flat sides remain on the same plane through the bend for maximum clearance in tight installations
- Mandrel-bent to maintain full oval cross-section with no wall collapse or distortion through the sweep
- CNC-precision short-radius die produces consistent, repeatable geometry ideal for custom exhaust and chassis fabrication
- 16 GA cold rolled mild steel (.065″ wall) is fully weldable with MIG, TIG, or stick processes
- Equal flow area to a 3-inch round tube, no restriction penalty from the oval profile change
- Available in four degree options, 30 , 45 , 60 , and 90, to suit any routing requirement
- Natural (uncoated) finish accepts paint, coating, or ceramic treatment without surface prep complications
- Proudly made in the USA

Fitment Notes
- This is a raw fabrication component, no vehicle-specific fitment; suitable for any custom exhaust, header, chassis, or tunnel application requiring a 3″ oval section
- Select the degree that matches your routing geometry, multiple bends can be combined to achieve compound routing angles
- Short-radius bends from the same OSR series will nest inside each other for compact multi-bend routing layouts
- Natural finish, prime, paint, coat, or ceramic-treat after fabrication as required
