been completed . The amount of springback depends
on the bend angle, bend radius, tubing material, and
wall thickness .
Experience will help you predict the amount of
springback . Expect to allow 1 to 3° of compensation .
Note : Verify the bend angle using a template,
protractor or against a known angle to ensure
the desired bend angle has been achieved .
Springback
Note: Do not bend all the way to the bend mark
when bending softer tubing such as copper or
