Tube Bending Services

As an expert metal fabricator, Linders Specialty Company has over four decades of experience in tube bending. We have the technical expertise to deliver precision tube bending services, accurately producing rolled tubes to your exact specifications. Our operations utilize the latest machining technologies to fabricate rolled tube components with minimal distortion and tight tolerances. Learn about our tube bending processes and services, value-added offerings, and the benefits of custom tube bending.

What is Tube Bending?

Tube bending is a complex metal fabrication technique that produces rolled tubes through force. Metal tubes are placed against an application specific die, and excessive force is applied to create a bend. With years of experience, industrial metal tube bending offers an effective way to create rolled tube components that meet application requirements.

Tube bending services use hardened steel dies to overcome structural challenges, and high-technology polymer dies for reduced surface scratching. Our proven expertise and premium technology allow for quality rolled tube components with minimal material deformation.

Custom tube bending capabilities include:

  • Small Tube Bending
  • Small Square Tube Bending
  • Large Round Tube Bending
  • Large Square Tube Bending
  • Rectangular Tube Bending – Easy Way
  • Rectangular Tube Bending – Hard Way
  • Scratch-Reduced Rolling of Stainless Steel Tubes
  • Scratch-Reduced Rolling of Aluminum Tubes
  • Advanced Mandrel Bending When Required by Material Orientation

High-quality tube bending fabrications from Linders Specialty Company can also produce CNC pipe bending components and tube coils with precision tolerances to meet application requirements.
