Tube bending ?
Tube bending ?
(OP)
Hey everyone,
I have to bend a piece of round steel tubing 20 deg with an OD of 1.75in and a wall thickness of .125in. Does anyone know what formula I might use to calculate the force I would require to bend this pipe to these specs ? I'm trying to spec out a cylinder but I'm not sure how much force I will need?
Thanks for the help.
