Todd,

That's one to "Bookmark"!  They didn't come up on the first dozen or so pages of my google searches for Stainless bends!

I've got them in my "Favorites" now (just in case).

 

Thanx,

Hi Joe;
I used .049 from Dawley Aviation and have had no problem. Tracey had recommended them several years ago when I was looking so I assume his system must also be .049 321SS.
http://www.dawley.net/index.html
They have a good selection and were good to deal with. Only complaint was that I asked if they had any sensor bungs and they said they would send something. Well the "something" they sent was 2 Swagelok tube nuts and charged me $10 each for them. Not only are these no good whatsoever for EGT sensors, I also happen to have a drawer here at work with a few hundred of them. I called them about this and they apologized profusely and reimbursed my card.

I'm having a heck of a time finding 321 Stainless mandrel bends in anything
larger than .049 wall. I'm trying to get 4 - 4" Center Line Radius, 90deg
bends in at least .065" wall. I've tried calling 4 places and researching a
hundred others online and my last hope appears to be Woolf Aircraft Products
(http://www.woolfaircraft.com/ ).

Is .049" wall beefy enough? If I recall, it seems that most people are using
material that is larger.  RacingBeat/MazdaTrix sell .125" wall but only in
"mild steel" not stainless.

Anyone else have any suggestions?
