Frequently Asked Questions

321 Stainless Steel is alloyed with titanium, providing superior resistance to carbide precipitation and thermal fatigue at sustained temperatures between 425°C and 815°C (800°F - 1500°F). This makes the Vibrant 13826 ideal for turbo manifolds, dump pipes, and high-heat race applications where 304 stainless might crack.

The Vibrant 13826 features a 2.25" (57.15 mm) outer diameter, 18-gauge wall thickness (0.049" / 1.24 mm), and a 3.375" centerline radius (CLR) across a 180-degree sweep.

Yes, the high purity and unpolished natural surface of 321 stainless steel make it exceptionally easy to TIG weld. For optimal weld joint strength, use 347 or 321 filler rod.
