Tube Design Calculators

We created this page to help you design and manufacture bent tube! Let us know what else you would like to see a calculator for!

Notes:

Can I use this for any tube bender?

You can likely apply these calulations and layouts to your JD2, ProTools, JMR, Baileigh, or another tubing/pipe bending machine. Just look for the “start of bend” number we provide. Add or subtract your bend offset for your tubing bender, and you’ll be ready to bend accurately on any machine. We’re your one-stop tube bending resource no matter what machine you’re using!

What should we make a calculator for next?

We will build our next FREE calculator for whatever gets the most votes. Just leave your comment and tell us what you want to see. Our 2 most common requests are shown below. We also get a lot of requests for the base 2-bend-U, just a part with (2) 90 degre bends. You can vote for anything, whether we have suggested it or not!
