At Rogue Fabrication we work hard to provide our customers with the most complete and accurate tube bending information available. We do our part to ensure that your fab shop runs as smoothly as possible. Although the chart below is the result of tests we performed on purchased materials, we cannot guarantee that you will achieve the same results due to the wide variation in material quality from one mill to another. If you want to know what to expect from a specific material, we offer bending diagnostic services. If your tubing bender does not perform to the limits shown in this chart, please call so we can help diagnose the problem. The culprit is usually setup, material quality, or lubrication. The solutions to these issues are usually easy.
NOTE – With the release of our affordable and high-performance mandrel conversion, we have not yet tested all dies to the limit in terms of minimum wall thickness. We will continue to do testing and add the new dies we’re designing for the machine as we discover new lower limits to minimum bend radii. Please e-mail us with your questions!

M605(*3) To protect the pins in the machine, you will need to upgrade your M601 to an M605 to bend this size (by purchasing an HD kit, they are under $100 and sold with the tubing benders in our store). | ||||||
NOTE: If you bend the thinnest material you can on ANY die, you will get the most deformation possible on that die. Meaning that the bends may appear flat on the outside of the bend. To avoid this, bend a thicker wall than the absolute minimum for a die, and bend on the largest CLR you can. | ||||||

*4) This made a decent quality bend, but had a defect at the bend start - a dimple. If you're cutting up bends for (like for making headers), this will likely be OK. | ||||||||
*5) Bend quality was good in testing, but repeated wrinkles were present, and VERY minor (depth below 25% of material's wall thickness). | ||||||||

Titanium alloy notes: We usually test 2.5AL-3V Titanium in CWSR (Cold Worked Stress Releived) state. This is a very strong alloy with excellent mechanical properties. It is also one of the most widely available alloys and conditions of titanium. We do not Test CP (commercially pure) or Inconel, although we can test your material (contact us). | ||||||||

*1) We do not gurantee performance on HREW. There are too many alloys and qualities of HREW being produced, and it gets mixed with and sold as other inferior tube products (at times). Good quality HREW tubing bends nearly the exact same as 1020 DOM. Ratings on aluminum (especially anything in a T6 temper) are based on our testing, read notes below on aluminum ratings. | ||||||||
*2) This capacity assumes 2 (TWO) pressure dies are in use, per the machine's operation instructions. If you are required to use 2 pressure dies, the material must be in contact with both, so plan your cut lengths and bending accordingly. Keep in mind you will have to use (2) pressure dies whenever you get to .156" wall or thicker. If you are bending .120" or .134" wall (or thinner, PLEASE do not use the back pressure die location (labeled HD only on the stickers). It will drastically reduce your bend quality. | ||||||||
*3) This number is based on other testing and extrapolation. It is not guranteed at this time. Contact us if you need testing done. | ||||||||
*4) This made a decent quality bend, but had a defect at the bend start - a dimple. If you're cutting up bends for (like for making headers), this will likely be OK. | ||||||||
*5) Bend quality was good in testing, but repeated wrinkles were present, and VERY minor (depth below 25% of material's wall thickness). | ||||||||
NOTE: If you bend the thinnest material you can on ANY die, you will get the most deformation possible on that die. Meaning that the bends may appear flat on the outside of the bend. To avoid this, bend a thicker wall than the absolute minimum for a die, and bend on the largest CLR you can. | ||||||||
Titanium alloy notes: We usually test 2.5AL-3V Titanium in CWSR (Cold Worked Stress Releived) state. This is a very strong alloy with excellent mechanical properties. It is also one of the most widely available alloys and conditions of titanium. We do not Test CP (commercially pure) or Inconel, although we can test your material (contact us). | ||||||||
