Extruded aluminum tube, pipe and shapes can be formed on conventional bending equipment. The minimum bending radius of a specific extrusion will depend on its size, alloy and temper, the complexity of its shape, and the characteristics of the available equipment. The Aluminum Association publication Forming and Machining Aluminum contains minimum bend radii for several common tube products.
