  • 3" stainless tube and bends

    Hi,

    I'm planning on having a go at making a 3" downpipe and side exit exhaust. Has anyone got any suggestions of the best (cheapest) routes to getting hold of the stainless tube, transitions and bends? I've seen loads of places on flea bay and the usual Jetex stuff, just wondered if anyone had any recommendations for companies in the UK?

    I was going to tack it up with a mig and then take it to a local place to have it Tig welded.

    Cheers, Steve

    Pipewerx have always been good to me, if your cheeky enough you can barter a good price and delivery. Good bunch of lads down there

      There is a small company in bradford i went to to get my bits, cheap and good quality, not sure if they will deliver or not tho. Only did 90 and 45 degree bends wise but i soon fashioned 70.s from 90.s.

                    I picked up most of my sections from ebay. Looked around at Tullet but their prices aren't cheap. Still have to turn a bunch of pieces into a system!

                      Is there any kind of guide or dimensioned drawing out there for 3" downpipes? I have access to the material and welders through work but have no idea how to fabricate it.
