Product Description



A cast aluminum elbow is a compactly curved section made from aluminum alloy. It is created by pouring molten aluminum into a mold, where it solidifies and takes the desired shape. Unlike traditional methods like mandrel bending, which impose limits on how sharply a tube can be bent, cast elbows excel in scenarios requiring tight radius bends. While standard bends typically suffice, the benefits of a cast elbow become clear when working in confined spaces, such as vehicle engine bays, where precision and space efficiency are crucial.
What does a Cast Elbow do?
The primary benefit of using a cast elbow is its ability to be welded directly to turbo compressor covers, preventing heat from turbos or manifold runners from damaging silicone joiners. This approach ensures your intercooler piping stays secure, leak-free, and reliable in high-temperature areas.
How hot does the manifold get under load?
This is a good example on how hot manifolds get when under load, you can see from the photo the cast elbow has moved the silicon joiner away from the heat.
Pictures of Cast Elbows installed
The cast elbow features a surface finish that matches the turbo compressor cover, ensuring a cohesive and aesthetically pleasing appearance.
If there is no insulation
Without proper heat shielding, silicone joiners can melt when manifold runners become excessively hot. Over time, the heat and repeated expansion from boost pressure can also cause the silicone to become brittle and crack, compromising the system's reliability.
90 Degree Cast Elbows installed
Cast elbows are perfect for welding directly to the compressor cover of your turbocharger, effectively eliminating the risk of silicone joiners splitting or melting due to excessive heat from the turbo manifold or turbine housing.
These 90-degree aluminum cast elbows are highly weldable and can be easily trimmed and welded to your turbo, as demonstrated in the provided images.
Additionally, cast elbows are an excellent choice for intercooler piping. Their tighter radius compared to mandrel-bent tubing makes them ideal for use in compact spaces.
