14 Gauge steel tolerences
14 Gauge steel tolerences
(OP)
I'm looking for the inherent minimum bend tolerence for 14 G steel. Is there a good book/soure where this can be found?
Cheers!

In practice unless you are willing to spend additional money for non-standard bending tooling you will be bending 14ga with a 1/16" radius punch and utilize a 5/8" vee die. You could probably use a 1/32" radius punch however the part will come out with a distorted (non-radius) bend and the punch will have excessive wear.
