If you want to confirm our bending tolerances, look no further!
Bend-To-Edge Dimensional Tolerances
- Simple, single bend parts will have a +/- 0.015” tolerance, bend to edge
- Multi bend parts will have a +/-
- Each bend adds at least .015” tolerance
Sheet Metal Bend Angle Tolerances
- +/- 1-degree tolerance on bends up to 24″ long
- +/- 2-degree tolerance on bends longer than 24″
Polycarbonate Bend Angle Tolerances
- +/- 3-degree tolerance on bends up to 24″ long
- +/- 4-degree tolerance on bends longer than 24″
