Sheet Metal Bending FAQs
Air bends, bottom bends, and impressions are the three main types.
Due to its wide range of uses and complete flexibility, carbon steel is the most commonly used material for bending in construction and OEM applications.
Sheet metal is a thin, malleable metal that maintains its shape even when bent. To achieve this, simply apply pressure to it with a stronger component.
Steel 0.5-0.8 inches can be bent laterally with a minimum radius of 2.5 times the thickness. For longitudinal bends, the minimum radius may need to be 3.75 times the thickness. Steel 0.8-2 inches thick requires thermoforming.
Some metals, such as tungsten and titanium, are very hard and less ductile, making them unsuitable for bending in most situations.
Yes, aluminum generally bends more easily than steel. It’s worth noting that the specific alloy and condition of the aluminum, as well as the type of steel, will affect the ease of bending. There are differences between each material category that affect its relative ease of bending. In addition, the thickness and geometry of the metal being bent and the bending process used also affect the ease and success of the bending operation.
The hardest metal is tungsten, and iron is also a hard metal. These metals resist bending and can withstand high temperatures without melting or weakening.
