Q: What tube wall thickness is supported?
A: This die supports mild steel tube wall thickness from about 0.083 inch up to 0.134 inch when used with 1-1/2 inch OD tubing.
Q: Can this die form bends beyond 90 degrees?
A: Yes, it is capable of bending up to approximately 120 degrees, though springback and material type should be considered for accuracy.
Q: Will this die fit other Woodward Fab bender models?
A: The WFBDT112X5 is specifically made for the WFB2 bender model; it may not align properly or offer safe use in other bending machines due to differences in die holders and bend geometry.
