Bending 1 4 Steel Plate

At jorgenson metal rolling and forming bending plate as well as rolling plate is just one of our many capabilities we can also do sheet metal bending tube bending and pipe bending.

Bending 1 4 steel plate.

If the steel has a tensile reduction value of 10 percent divide 50 by that value. 4 0 5 2. 5 1 4. Bend by hand and weld the joint skip weld is fine.

Formed stainless steel plate bent. Lay out the sheet you want to bend and mark it with a sharpie. Then on the back side cut about half way through with a cut off wheel. Last time i bought plate i bought a sheet they cut it in 3 pieces made 2 bends in each of the 2 pieces and loaded it in my truck.

Next subtract 1 from that answer. Build this brake from scrap steel. If the material is 0 5 in. Go to the local steel shop and have them make the bend.

So in this case the minimum inside bend radius is 2 times the material thickness. This plate was also sheared to size in our custom metal fabrication department which is located in our facility. Hope you like you. This is 1 4 thick plate bent to various degrees.

Now multiply that answer by the plate thickness.
