FLATTENED STAINLESS STEEL PIPE FABRICATION
FLATTENED STAINLESS STEEL PIPE FABRICATION
(OP)
I am finding it difficult to find supplier to make up flattened stainless steel pipe similar to attached drawing.
Most suppliers consider cold forming and welding up segments and there is a strong possibility of cracking
Would hot forming be a practical solution?
Does anybody know a fabricator who does this type of work?
Many thanks

Not too sure on how you're going to keep that 1.5mm cavity in those bends...

Will be difficult to fab, if this is for production consider a different design.

if it can be built it can be calculated.

Just before the resulting oval collapses on itself, insert a strip of bismuth/cerrobend,
then continue pressing until the tube cross section is nice and flat.
Make the bends of the filled tube on a pin bender, then
melt out the bismuth with boiling water.
