Bending aerotube

[Christopher Crowe]

Have a unique need for some die-bent aero tubing. Has anyone -- and I kinda doubt it -- has anyone heard of anyone or any company with the dies to bend this bend this uniquely shaped stuff? (The standard aerotube sizes as available from Spruce or the drag racing outfits). An aircraft outfit maybe?

Thanks,

Christopher Crowe

Hi
I'm a source for Formed Aero Tubing. We have a fully equiped modern CNC machine shop in SoCal.

We own a 200 ton 4 post press that has a working size of 36" x 48". I can form just about any shape up to 5/32" 4130 sheet. Hydro forming aluminum sheet in alll kinds of crazy shapes is another of our services.

We also take off the shelf round tubing and form it in single cavity dies to aero tube shapes.
