Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why is my tubing buckling while using these dies? A: Tubing can buckle or crush if you attempt to form too tight of a radius in a single pass, or if the wall thickness of the tubing is too thin to withstand the rolling pressure.
Q: Will these dies work for 1-inch pipe? A: No, pipe and tubing are measured differently. A 1-inch pipe has a larger outside diameter than a 1-inch tube, meaning it will not fit properly into this specific die channel.
