Radius Benders offers a range of End Forming Services

Having a number of different end forming machines complementing our Brisbane factory, Radius Benders can offer a range of end forming services to end-form tube in a number of different ways.

Our services include:

  • Swaging (Reducing) – where a tube end is reduced in diameter to go inside another piece of tube. Tooling available allows us to reduce tube (and pipe) from 80mm outside diameter.
  • Swaging (Expanding) – where a tube end is expanded to go over the outside of another piece of tube. Tooling available ranges from 28mm~127mm tube.
  • Beading – a process that forms a bead (or bubble) on the end of a tube. Used where a rubber hose slips over the outside of the tube and is held in place with a hose clamp. The bead helps to retain the clamp and stop the hose from sliding off the tube end.
  • Flaring – 37 or 45 degree flare designed to provide for a tight seal for hydraulics fittings where flare fittings are used.
  • Scalloping – Scalloping is a popular end forming process so a tube end can glove around the outside of another tube. This is an effective way to form a strong and neat welding joint.
  • Flattening – Flattening is a cost-effective way to form a flat tube end for tubular assemblies. The process may involve multiple procedure steps that always starts by flattening then followed by trimming corners and punching holes.
